“My personal decision is to not to feed into negativity and be more cause-driven, action-based,” the pregnant Suits alum explained when asked if she reads the social media platform.
She added, “For me it’s a tricky one, because I’m not part of any of that. I don’t look at it. Sorry, no. For me that is my personal preference.”
The panel was moderated by a senior editor at the Economist. “But I do read the Economist,” Meghan (née Markle) mused.
