Meghan Markle's fans, known as the Sussex Squad, have aggressively criticized and harassed two British priests on social media for criticizing her new £112 (£148 USD) advent calendar, which includes 24 handcrafted chocolates from Los Angeles-based chocolatier Compartés. Anglican priest Rev Daniel French suggested his followers consider a cheaper, Fairtrade Christian advent calendar priced at £5.99 that also supports charity. This sparked angry responses on social media with some calling the priests derogatory names like "evil" and "satan spawn," leading one of them to lock down their account for protection. The debate highlights tensions between luxury consumerism and traditional religious practices during Christmas.
