How UCLA's 'Race and Equity' director, who fondly calls Meghan 'America's ... trends now
After the Princess of Wales revealed her devastating cancer diagnosis last month, many hoped the feeding frenzy over her withdrawal from public life would finally stop.
And while some conspiracy peddlers have apologized – including celebrities like Andy Cohen – other key players, particularly those on social media, have doubled down on their harassment of the sick princess.
Tech entrepreneur Christopher Bouzy – made famous for his appearance on Harry and Meghan's 2022 Netflix documentary – is among those already outed for spreading scurrilous lies about Kate.
Bouzy is a staunch member of a self-styled 'Sussex Squad' that vigorously defends Meghan against perceived online bullying, while seemingly viewing attacks on Kate as fair game.
But while Bouzy continues to obsess over a preposterous theory that recent footage of Kate at a farm shop in Windsor was faked, he has at least drawn the line at questioning the Princess's cancer diagnosis.
The same cannot be said of all his fellow online Sussex defenders.
Today, DailyMail.com exclusively unmasks Johnathan Perkins.
A lawyer who worked at Harvard University, and currently serves as UCLA's Director of Race and Equity, Perkins has spent recent weeks spreading vile falsehoods about the princess on his X (formerly Twitter) account, including doubting whether she is 'still alive' and making the entirely baseless claim that her cancer is fake.

A lawyer who worked at Harvard University, and currently serves as UCLA's Director of Race and Equity, Perkins has spent recent weeks spreading vile falsehoods about the princess on his X (formerly Twitter) account, including the entirely baseless claim that her cancer is fake.
Posting to some 31,000 followers, Perkins, 37, flaunts his credentials as a 'public academic, higher education attorney, lecturer and podcast co-host', adding – not a little ironically – that he is devoted to 'creating a more just and equal society'.
Among his many recent posts about the princess, most malicious are his accusations that she is a 'known liar', and that he does not believe she 'had/has cancer'.
He has also said that Kate does 'not deserve my respect', that she could be 'in a coma or dead', and that the Royal Family is 'using the Cancer Card' to 'cover for something else'.
On Easter Sunday, he cruelly joked: 'Wait, isn't Kate Middleton supposed to rise today?'
The lies about Kate's diagnosis are particularly shocking given that Perkins himself is a cancer survivor, posting openly about his own past battle with the disease.
Much like Bouzy, while Perkins seemingly has no qualms trashing Kate's integrity, he appears practically allergic to even the slightest criticism of the Duchess of Sussex.
Early last month, he tweeted: 'You realize whole tabloid departments are dedicated to making up crap about Meghan Markle?'
In another post, he shared a photo of the Duchess and wrote: 'FYI, this is an American Princess Meghan Markle stan account.'
LA-based, Perkins first trained as a lawyer at the University of Virginia, before moving to work in Harvard's prestigious Office of the General Counsel.
Now at UCLA, he earns $125,920 per year as part of the university's 'Office of Equity, Diversity & Inclusion'.
As such, many will point out an obvious
