A journalist who has written pro-Meghan Markle articles faced backlash for making jokes on Twitter suggesting that Queen Elizabeth should have died instead of television legend Betty White. Nylah Burton, who has previously written articles criticising the monarchy, faced criticism for her insensitive comments, including from commentator Piers Morgan. Burton eventually deleted her Twitter account.
Betty White, who passed away at the age of 99, had a career of over 80 years and was known for her role in classic sitcom The Golden Girls. The Queen last appeared on television delivering an emotional Christmas message paying tribute to her late husband, Prince Philip.
