Tatum O’Neal took great umbrage at Meghan Markle’s Wimbledon appearance. However, unlike others, she wasn’t offended by Meghan’s break in royal clothing protocol. Instead, O’Neal was outraged by Meghan’s unwillingness to take selfies with the public, which also happens to be against “The Firm” protocol, according to Insider.
“It’s so upsetting to me because if you think about Princess Diana, and you think of how absolutely inclusive she was, she would never turn anyone away,” she said during a “Good Day Britain” appearance. “I had so much hope for Meghan. I wanted her to be the next Princess Diana.” O’Neil might want to brush up on her history, given that Princess Diana died at 36 years old while attempting to flee those trying to take her photo. Piers Morgan immediately chimed in, claiming it was bizarre Meghan wanted to be left in peace while she was “sitting in a VIP box at Wimbledon.”

O’Neal agreed, calling Meghan’s behavior “so tacky.” The actor knows a thing or two about tacky tennis-related behavior. Per Sportsskeeda, she was married to the notoriously hot-headed “You can not be serious!” Grand Slam champ John McEnroe from 1986-1984. The couple has three kids, and their marriage — along with their subsequent divorce and custody battle — was as explosive as McEnroe’s on-court outbursts.
