After Meghan Markle alleged that they treated her like a bimbo, Claudia Jordan, a former member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, is speaking out about her own experience on the Deal or No Deal set.
For clarification, Jordan said on her Instagram Stories, “sure, landing a modeling contract on a game show isn’t always about your intelligence but for every show, the executive producers picked five models with the most outgoing and engaging personalities to place mics on who they knew would engage with the competitors.
And Deal or No Deal never treated us like bimbos, the writer said in a subsequent post. Because of that show, we were given a lot of opportunities.
“That sort of opportunity is what you make of it. There are no restrictions on what you can do with the opportunity if you show up and grasp your moments, but if you just show up and don’t participate, you’ll just get your check and not much else, she continued.
As it was an excellent opportunity for her career and helped her pay “all her bills,” Jordan said she appreciated her “experience working on Deal or No Deal.”
She added that she wasn’t attacking Meghan since “Lord knows I’ve been defending this woman in the media for years and I still will, but I simply didn’t want any mistake about the climate and environment on the Deal or No Deal set.”
Howie Mandel, who treated all 26 of us with kindness and respect, had Jordan’s utmost attention, according to Jordan.
The most recent episode of Markle’s Archetypes podcast featured an open discussion about her time on the NBC game show.
Although there were many intelligent women around her on stage, she claimed that this was not the main reason they were there. Knowing that I was so much more than what was being objectified on stage, I would eventually leave with a pit in my stomach. It bothered me to be expected to be all show and little substance. Being reduced to this particular archetype at the moment felt like that to me.
