Priyanka Chopra found Vanity Fair’s cover story on Meghan Markle, Prince Harry sexist

Priyanka Chopra thought that to focus so largely on Meghan Markle’s relationship was sexist on Vanity Fair’s part.

“A woman is not just a plus one,” says Priyanka Chopra while giving her opinion on friend Meghan Markle’s recent interview in Vanity Fair.

Priyanka Chopra and Meghan Markle have been friends since she started working in Hollywood.

Chopra said the cover story should have focused more on the Suits star many achievements, rather than her relationship with Prince Harry.

“I don’t if I will get into trouble for this, but I have an opinion,” Priyanka told ET Online. “I mean, she’s on the cover of Vanity Fair. It would have been nice to write about her not just her boyfriend. I’m just saying. I mean, she’s an actor, she’s an activist, she’s a philanthropist. I mean, she does so much more.”

“It’s just a little sexist,” she continued. “Look, I’m a feminist and I love boys, okay. The only thing I’m saying is that there needs to be a certain sense of equality where a woman is not just a plus one, you know. It’s nice to be your own identity too.”

The Vanity Fair article dedicated much of its space to Markle’s relationship with Prince Harry. Probing about their relationship, Markle responded: “We’re a couple. We’re in love.”
