Meghan Markle Spotted without Engagement Ring at Star-Studded Charity Event

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry attended a glamorous charity event hosted by Hollywood legend Kevin Costner, where they mingled with A-list celebrities including Oprah Winfrey.

However, it was Meghan's missing engagement ring that caught the attention of onlookers for the second time.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made an appearance at the 1805 Live charity event held at Kevin's lavish 26 million dollar polo field in Santa Barbara.

Despite the grandeur of the occasion, eagle-eyed observers couldn't help but notice that Meghan was not wearing her sparkling engagement ring, marking the second occasion she has been seen without it.

Previously, she had chosen to go without the ring during her appearance at the Invictus Games earlier this month.

During the event, a short video clip of about 10 seconds was recorded and posted by the event's host.

In the video, Meghan and Harry can be seen engaging in a conversation with some local guests.

However, a small conflict arises between the couple.

While Harry is engrossed in conversation with a man, Meghan, who is talking to another guest beside her, tries to drown out his voice.

After a few seconds of silence, Harry raises his voice above Meghan's to continue his conversation, visibly displaying his anger.

In response, Meghan stares fiercely at him, demonstrating her own frustration.

For those intrigued by body language, this 10-second clip provides a treasure trove of insights.

Meghan's look of malice and her clenched jaw after realizing that Harry is engaged in conversation with someone else is quite unsettling.

Although she then puts on a smile, her clenched jaw and evident irritation remain apparent.

As she interrupts him, Harry's head snaps towards her, clearly startled.

He had been genuinely engaged in his conversation before the interruption.

His clenched jaw and pursed lips reflect his annoyance as Meghan talks over him to the person he was initially speaking with.

The discomfort and irritation are evident as he fidgets with his collar.

The body language speaks volumes.

Meghan's interruption suggests that Harry did not say what she wanted him to say, prompting her to interject.

She employs hand gestures to convey that her perspective aligns with Harry's.

It becomes persistent that Meghan appears irritated when someone else is speaking or receiving attention.

This deep-seated response, rooted in jealousy, is unmistakable.

Her glare at Harry conveys a sense of hatred.

In her mind, this is her world, and she believes she should be the one in command.

She brought him into this world, and she cannot relinquish control.

While the Sussexes were seen grinning from ear to ear, a body language expert noted that upon closer inspection, Harry appeared uncomfortable.

On the other hand, Meghan seemed enthralled by the events and asserted a more dominant role.

Judy James, speaking to the Mirror, remarked that Harry appeared out of place in the celebrity surroundings, with one of his hands remaining tucked in his pocket while Meghan frequently touched him with small pats or pushes.

James concluded that it seemed as though Meghan had taken a more central and dominant position, potentially swapping roles and status with her husband after his star turn at the Invictus Games.

In summary, Meghan Markle's absence of an engagement ring at the charity event, coupled with the intriguing dynamics between her and Prince Harry, has sparked curiosity among observers.

The body language displayed during their conversation reveals underlying tension and hints at a power struggle within their relationship.

As the couple continues to navigate their new lives away from the royal family, their interactions will undoubtedly continue to captivate public interest.
