Several A-listers were part of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal wedding. But now, they are all keeping a distance from the Sussexes. The reasons for maintaining the distance were revealed by an insider. They said it is due to several factors. But the most prominent being that Markle is seen as ‘cheap’ or ‘stingy’ in British parlance.
Insiders dish on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s alleged fallout with A-listers
Many A-listers attended Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal wedding at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, on May 19. From her “Suits” co-stars to her bridesmaid and best friend, stylist and influencer Jessica Mulroney, everyone was present at her big day. Even prominent figures such as George and Amal Clooney, David and Victoria Beckham, Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, and actor Idris Elba attended their wedding. However, according to the Daily Mail, there has been a fallout with some of her A-list friends.
A source explained the reason for the fallout. They said the Sussexes “ask for a lot of resources to be spent as they believe it is a privilege to be in their circle.” Moreover, Markle and Harry “think they are entitled to all the private planes.” “She is the cheapest!’ the insider exclaimed. Their association with Elba, Beckham, and more has also ended for the same reasons.
Among many renowned people who have maintained an arms-length relationship with the couple is Winfrey. She interviewed the Sussexes in 2021, after they stepped back from their royal duties in 2020. But now, it’s a different story as the source revealed that “they are not as close as they once were.”
Former Page Six columnist Paula Froelich believes that long-term alignment with Brand Sussex poses reputational risks. So, “No one wants to hang out with Meghan.” Even Clooneys “now want nothing to do with them.” “George and Amal Clooney were never friends with her… they have literally nothing in common and side with the actual royals,” Froelich revealed. George Clooney had initially sent a jet to pick up and drop off the couple after their three-day ‘mini-moon’ vacation at the actor’s Lake Como estate in Italy.
