Every year at the esteemed Cannes Film Festival, Caroline Scheufele, co-chairman and artistic director of Chopard, walks the red carpet with an extravagant jewellery collection. Usually, there are 72 different pieces in this collection, which represents the number of years the festival has been conducted.
Meghan holds a strong affection for Chopard and was the one who introduced Petra to the new Chopard in Cannes collection. This collection is presented with an illustrated book that tells the story of a lovely girl in love, featuring magnificent jewelry pieces such as lavish necklaces adorned with emeralds and sapphires, flower-shaped earrings, opal brooches, pink diamond rings, and more.
It's important to note that top model Petra Mover and Meghan had appeared together at a social event prior to Meghan's marriage to Prince Harry. However, Petra's absence at the royal wedding was attributed more to logistical reasons than a lack of personal friendship. Since then, an old photo of the two emerged, allegedly showing Meghan editing her appearance to enhance her beauty in comparison to supermodel Petra.
This revelation led to a heated argument between Petra and Meghan, ultimately resulting in Meghan losing Chopard's support and being prohibited from collaborating on any future royal collections.
Another factor in Chopard's apparent distancing from Meghan is her association with diamond earrings gifted to her by Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, which has stirred controversy. These extravagant chandelier earrings were reportedly purchased using contentious funds, causing public outrage. Meghan was criticized for wearing earrings connected to questionable finances, given the circumstances.
The controversy surrounding the earrings and the alleged ban on Meghan's involvement in the Chopard deal has added fuel to rumors about Meghan's relationships with prominent figures.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle is reportedly making an effort to return to acting and has sought assistance from Hollywood actor Kevin Costner through his charity. Struggling to find career opportunities, Meghan hopes to secure an acting role in Kevin's forthcoming four-part Western-style project. However, some are skeptical about her transition from "Suits" to such a high-profile role.
Royal expert Angela Mullard discussed the situation, mentioning the speculation that Meghan is trying to establish a connection with Kevin, who has a significant project in the works. While Meghan's involvement might generate attention, Kevin Costner is an established actor in his own right, and the fit might not be as straightforward as it seems.
