The friendship flourished further when the Sussexes relocated to the US in 2020, spending considerable time with Ellen and her wife Portia. However, recent developments reveal that Meghan's agency, WME, has advised her to cool off her friendship with Ellen due to concerns about the toxic workplace allegations surrounding the talk show host. The advice is part of a broader effort to rebuild Meghan's image, with insiders suggesting that any association with scandal could jeopardize the couple's hard-earned reputation in America. Sources indicate that the decision might have originated from Ellen's end, possibly due to Meghan's behavior at a police fundraiser and a subsequent group photo with Harry, Ellen, Portia, Oprah, and others. Some speculate that Ellen may have refused Meghan's request or tried to dissuade her from the Sussex Mansion purchase.
Adding fuel to the fire, Meghan was notably absent from Ellen's wife Portia de Rossi's birthday party, despite their past friendship. Ellen excluded Meghan and Harry from the celebration, sharing a photo of Portia posing with a horse and expressing birthday wishes. Kris Jenner, a close friend of the couple, also posted a heartfelt Instagram tribute for Portia. The dynamics between Meghan and Ellen raise questions about the status of their once-close friendship and its potential impact on Meghan and Harry's public image.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle is expected to break her silence and share her side of the story. Although news of her writing a memoir hasn't been officially confirmed, several royal experts claim it's highly probable. A former royal butler expressed anticipation for Meghan's book, stating that she won't stay quiet and will likely want her side of the story out, potentially causing further damage to the royal family.
