Meghan Markle is on a roll, consistently impressing at back-to-back high-profile events. However, her latest appearance at Oprah’s book event has sparked controversies which have their own reason. The Duchess attended the gathering on the anniversary of Queen Elizabeth’s passing, raising eyebrows and fueling speculation. While Markle’s presence was likely a show of support for her long-time friend Oprah, and her love for Prince Harry‘s controversial, Spare, the coincidence has led to criticism and debate.
Nevertheless, the Duchess did not hesitate to leave a mark at the star-studded book event.
Meghan Markle as the silver lining to Oprah Winfrey’s literary event
On the eve of September 8th, Meghan Markle sparkled at a book event, hosted by their former ally, Oprah Winfrey, at the Godmothers bookstore in Summerland. Just a few miles from Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Montecito abode, the event brought together a-listers and spiritual figures who mingled, praising Markle’s presence. The Duchess shared the attention with the “hometown hero” shelf, where Prince Harry’s bombshell memoir Spare took center stage, cementing his new Californian identity.
The event was all about the couple’s integration into their local community, with the Duke’s book proudly displayed alongside other notable authors. Meghan Markle was dressed in a sleeveless collared jumpsuit, overshadowing the books and possibly even Oprah herself. The timing, however, raised eyebrows, coinciding with Queen Elizabeth’s death anniversary. Nonetheless, forever the architect of her own will, Meghan Markle beamed with pride, stealing the spotlight with effortless charm and support for her husband’s literary debut.
The event not only brought the Duchess into the good books of Californians but also set the record straight about her relationship with celebrities.
Oprah Winfrey and Meghan Markle’s relationship so far-
Oprah Winfrey, a close acquaintance of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, has been a steadfast supporter of the couple. Their bond was evident when the Sussex couple sat for the infamous bombshell of an interview with Oprah Winfrey stripping the royal family of their dark secrets. Moreover, Oprah has been spotted visiting the couple’s home, further solidifying their friendship.
However, rumors of a rift between Oprah and the Sussexes emerged after they were noticeably absent from her birthday party. But, their latest appearance together at the book club event has dispelled those claims. The trio’s reunion has put their friendship back in the spotlight, showcasing ever-lasting solidarity and mutual respect.
