After Meghan Markle's appearance at the Children's Hospital Gala in LA, it seems that the Sussex Squad may have humiliated her by turning against her. Meghan made an appearance at the Children’s Hospital Gala, but now it appears she’s facing backlash from her own supporters, the Sussex Squad, who seem to be turning on her.
One prominent member of the Sussex Squad, Liz Jones, a writer for the *Daily Mail*, has come forward with a startling realization: she can no longer support Meghan. Liz writes that she’s always been loyal to Meghan, overlooking numerous red flags. In her article, she reveals, “I tried, I really did. I invested so much in our relationship over the years. I saw Meghan as self-made, outspoken, a little broken, and put upon. But now, I cannot overlook that red dress.”
According to Liz, Meghan’s appearance at the Children’s Hospital Gala was the final straw. Despite having worn ill-fitting outfits before, this red Carolina Herrera dress crossed a line for Liz. She explains that she found herself cringing with secondhand embarrassment, and once she had that feeling, there was no going back. “In that ill-fitting dress, Meghan didn’t look regal, she looked diminished,” Liz writes.
Liz had previously praised Meghan’s style, including her two wedding dresses, and even admired her love for animals. However, the gala dress made Liz reconsider. She now feels that Meghan, rather than growing in stature over the years, has actually shrunk in the public eye. Liz points out that Meghan’s choice to re-wear the Carolina Herrera dress didn’t have the desired effect—it wasn’t the “wow” moment it seemed intended to be.
InStyle magazine also weighed in, referring to Meghan as a "jam entrepreneur," further stoking the flames of critique. According to Liz, Meghan's attempt to replicate the magic of Princess Catherine, who is known for recycling outfits, backfired. "Megs was likely trying to capture that same charm, but it didn’t quite work," she says.
As the article progresses, Liz reflects on her support for Meghan over the years. She had applauded Meghan for standing up to a powerful dynasty, but now sees her as a “washed-up Hollywood celebrity.” Liz’s shift in loyalty signifies that even Meghan’s most steadfast supporters may be starting to lose faith.
One by one, the dominoes in the Sussex Squad are falling. Liz’s sudden about-face marks a significant moment in the ongoing narrative surrounding Meghan Markle. With more critics emerging, Meghan’s once stronghold of support seems to be weakening.
