Megyn Kelly has accused Meghan Markle of staging her hiking photos taken over coronation weekend, criticizing the Duchess of Sussex's attire during the outing. Speaking on "Sky News Australia," Kelly, 52, said, "She actually had a little neck scarf with a tie. I'm sorry ladies, but we've all walked our dogs, literally nobody does that."

Kelly went on to describe Markle's outfit, which included a hat, glasses, and a wrap, as being too perfectly put together for a casual walk. The 41-year-old duchess was photographed during a 40-minute hike near her Montecito, California home, without her husband Prince Harry or their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.

Instead, Markle was joined by friends Markus Anderson and Heather Dorak while events celebrating the coronation of King Charles III, her father-in-law, continued in the UK. The group was also accompanied by Kim Kardashian's former bodyguard.

Kelly further argued that Markle's "million-dollar smile" suggested the photos were staged rather than candid shots. She sarcastically remarked, "'Oh you, oh hello… where did you come from? How on earth did you know I'd be here?' It was obvious, like everything with this woman."

During the hike, Markle wore Princess Diana's Cartier watch and a Bentley & Skinner diamond tennis bracelet, believed to have been a gift from King Charles, 74, to his late ex-wife. Markle did not attend Charles' coronation, reportedly to "protect her peace."

The coronation events coincided with Archie's 4th birthday on Saturday. A source told Page Six, "There was no way that Meghan was going to miss her son's birthday." However, Prince Harry, 38, made a brief trip to London to witness his father's historic crowning.

Although Prince Harry did not publicly interact with his father or estranged brother Prince William, 40, during the coronation, a former royal staffer claims the Duke of Sussex would have "personally regretted" not being present for his father's crowning.
