I Was 'Reduced To A Bimbo' But Wants My Daughter To 'Aspire Higher' - Says Meghan Markle

Meghan Markle has opened up about her year as a Deal or No Deal briefcase girl and revealed she quit because she felt 'objectified', only appreciated for 'beauty not brains' and was treated like a 'bimbo' - the word at the heart of her latest Spotify podcast released today featuring Paris Hilton.

The Duchess of Sussex said she was grateful for the work as she tried to break through as an actress and 'pay the bills' - but disliked 'how it made me feel, which was not smart'.

Speaking on her new Archetypes podcast with Paris Hilton, called 'Breaking Down the Bimbo', Meghan said that she wants her own daughter Lilibet to be valued first for her brain - rather than her beauty or her body.
