Meghan Markle appeared to hit back at her critics when giving advice to women entering business in a new video that was shared on social media. The Duchess of Sussex appeared on the Aspire with Emma Grede podcast, where she opened up on various topics.

Days after the interview was released, the podcast show uploaded a bonus Q&A video on its Instagram page, showing the Duchess talking about her brand's purpose, public platforms, and "what it really takes to lead with intention". In one segment, Meghan was asked for advice she would give to women entering business with a public platform. The Duchess made a telling, eleven-word comment, saying: "I think I would just say 'drown out all the noise and just listen to your voice'."

Prince Harry's wife has been the target of plenty of criticism since her sensational departure from the Royal Family in 2020.

She previously used the same quote just months after she quit her duties.

In July 2020, Meghan gave a speech via video at the Girl Up 2020 Leadership Summit.

She told young women: "There will always be negative voices and sometimes those voices can appear to be outsized, and sometimes they can appear to be painfully loud.

"You can and will use your own voices to drown out the noise. Because that's what it is - just noise.

"But your voices are those of truth. And hope. And your voices can and should be much louder."

Elsewhere in the Q&A video, Meghan was asked about how to make space for creativity "within the realities of business planning, investment and growth".

She replied: "Kids! It's impossible to not make space for creativity. We have two little ones, they are not four and six, so that is my after-school fun."
