Meghan Markle is said to be seething after her longtime friend Marcus Anderson appears to have ghosted her latest Netflix project, With Love, Meghan. The tabloids are buzzing with speculation, asking, "Where's Marcus?"—as if the world has been on edge, losing sleep over the whereabouts of the charming Canadian socialite.
Once Meghan’s ever-present confidant, sidekick, and all-around enabler, Marcus was practically glued to her hip in the pre-Harry days. He was even front and center at her 2018 royal wedding. But now, in the era of multimillion-dollar rented kitchens, carefully curated avocado toasts, and questionable lifestyle advice, he has mysteriously vanished from the picture.
According to insiders, Marcus has been keeping his distance from Meghan’s Netflix cooking and self-promotion series. Allegedly, he’s simply too busy managing the ever-expanding Soho House empire—the once-exclusive, now semi-mainstream members-only club. Oh, and he supposedly doesn’t like the spotlight.
Pardon us while we laugh. Since when has Marcus, the ultimate social climber, shied away from basking in borrowed celebrity status? The last confirmed sighting of Meghan and Marcus together was at a baby shower in December. Before that? Who knows. His friends insist that his absence from *With Love, Meghan* isn’t a snub but rather a result of his jet-setting lifestyle and supposed aversion to cameras.
Right. This is the same Marcus who orchestrated Meghan and Harry’s Soho House blind date and has taken part in enough paparazzi walks to fill an entire scrapbook. But now he’s suddenly media-shy? Please.
Some speculate that Marcus has finally realized his days as a high-society power broker are over. Soho House, once a haven for the ultra-elite, has reportedly become a playground for finance bros and social media influencers desperate for validation. Maybe Marcus’ golden touch has faded, and his once-impressive Rolodex of A-listers has aged just as poorly as Meghan’s standing among Hollywood’s elite.
No more high-powered connections? No more VIP treatment? No more usefulness? And what tends to happen to people in Meghan’s orbit once they’re no longer beneficial? They get *Marled*—a term increasingly used to describe how quickly she moves on from once-close friends.
And let’s not ignore the most sensational theory of them all: some whisper that Marcus’ Soho House matchmaking wasn’t just casual networking. Given that he played a key role in setting up Meghan and Harry’s romance in 2016, some speculate his *real* talent was in orchestrating mutually beneficial introductions. Now that Meghan’s position is secured, his services are no longer required. And just like that—poof—he disappears from the picture, no longer needed to sprinkle socialite fairy dust on her ambitions.
Of course, this all raises a crucial question: If Meghan truly cut Marcus off, why isn’t he speaking out? A man with his level of insider knowledge could easily cash in with a tell-all interview or even a conveniently leaked memoir. Perhaps a tight non-disclosure agreement is keeping him silent. Or maybe, much like Prince Harry, he’s clinging to the last remnants of loyalty before inevitably being discarded himself.
One thing is certain—Meghan might be offering tips on making ice cubes, but the real entertainment is watching her list of discarded friends continue to grow. Who will be next? Only time will tell. But given her track record, we’d suggest Harry keep one eye open at all times.
