Meghan Markle has been spotted visiting a new wildfire relief effort in Los Angeles, despite the backlash she has faced for being a “disaster tourist” from critics.

Over the past week, wildfires have raged through Los Angeles, causing massive, horrific devastation and many, including stars like Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, losing their homes.

Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, were seen hugging victims at an evacuation center in Pasadena on Friday, but it appears the Duke and Duchess have also been working with the Altadena Girls Fire Recovery Fund.

The couple donated to the cause, which was launched by 14-year-old Avery Colvert, to help teenage girls in their community “regain their sense of self and confidence” after the fires, through their Foundation Archewell.

The organization focuses on collecting clothing and personal items, as well as beauty and hair care products.

In a new video posted on Instagram by Altadena GirlsMarkle can be seen talking to a girl in what appears to be a parking lot, while carrying several bags, presumably filled with donations, in her arms.

The mother-of-two cut a cool, casual figure in a pair of jeans, a black T-shirt and a navy blue baseball cap with the letters ‘LA’ emblazoned on it, as she was seen rubbing the girls’ arm.

The video Markle appeared in was a compilation of short clips taken from her donation center, inviting students and teenagers displaced by the fires to shop and work with stylists for free.

Actress Justine Bateman later attacked the couple on X, formerly Twitter, calling them “disaster tourists.”

Family Ties star Bateman wrote online: ‘Meghan Markle and Harry are no better than ambulance chasers.

‘What a repulsive “photograph” they achieved. Are they “scouring the damage”? Are they politicians now?

‘They don’t live here; They are tourists. Disaster tourists.’

However, a source recently said Page six that the couple feels ‘offended’ by Bateman’s comments.

The source told the outlet: “It’s offensive to Meghan and Harry that anyone would think this is simply a photo opportunity.”

“Meghan was born and raised in Los Angeles, so this is and always will be her home.”

They added that Markle “is not just a tourist” and that her “heart is completely broken for all the lives that have been lost and for those whose homes have been destroyed in these fires.”

Amid the wildfires, Markle’s new Netflix show was also pushed back from its original premiere date of January 15 to March 4.
