Most Powerful Gay Crasher, Meg Caked Out of New York City Feminist Gala 2023 Due to Bullying Gloria Steinemann
Meghan Markle Excluded from Prominent Feminist Gala in New York City
Meghan Markle, the influential figure and advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, found herself excluded from New York's most prestigious feminist gala hosted by Gloria Steinemann.
The highly anticipated 2nd Annual Caring for Women Dinner, organized by the Caring Foundation, took place on September 12th, marking the foundation's 15th anniversary dedicated to combating violence against women.
Unfortunately, Meghan was noticeably absent from the event, raising questions about her standing within the feminist community.
The sold-out gala served as a platform to raise funds for organizations actively addressing issues related to violence against women.
The evening featured a live auction, curated by LADF, offering a wide range of items and experiences from renowned brands such as Gucci, St. Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Valencia, Alexander McQueen, Brian Penna, Yuri, and others.
Notable artists Emily Yang Wow and Cindy Sherman also contributed original artworks to the auction.
This year's event was hosted by journalist Lisa Ling, with co-chair positions held by luminaries including Gloria Diam, Salma Hayek, French Coso, Henry Bennell, Cindy Sherman, Christy Turlington, Olivia Wilde, Oprah Winfrey, Zoe Kravitz, and Mala Usai.
The proceeds from the gala went towards supporting organizations actively combating gender-based violence, such as the Mala Fund, the National Network to End Domestic Violence, and the New York City Alliance Against Assault.
In the past, the Caring for Women New York dinner has attracted notable figures such as Emma Watson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kelly Clarkson, Kim Kardashian, and Jodi Turner-Smith.
While Meghan Markle shares close friendships with some of these attendees, including Oprah, Gloria Diam, and Kim Kardashian, her absence from the guest list raised eyebrows.
According to a source, Meghan's exclusion from the event can be attributed to her recent collaboration with Gloria Steinemann.
In a Vogue article, Meghan mentioned an encounter with Gloria, which led to questions about her authenticity in the feminist movement.
The source suggests that Meghan's association with Gloria appeared more opportunistic, driven partly by her royal title, rather than a genuine commitment to women's causes.
This breakdown in their working relationship resulted in Meghan being denied the privilege of attending this significant event.
Critics argue that Meghan may be exploiting Gloria, who is nearly 90 years old and holds an esteemed position as a prominent writer and advocate in the feminist movement.
They believe Meghan seeks validation through the positive attention she receives from influential figures like Gloria, who complimented her in kind.
However, it is rare for a famous person to openly praise someone of lower status, raising doubts about Meghan's intentions.
In a recent interview, Gloria confirmed Prince Harry's commitment to women's rights and acknowledged the importance of the Sussexes' advocacy.
She emphasized the significance of trust, stating that when individuals like Meghan and Harry speak out, their words hold weight and inspire trust among the public.
Trust, according to Gloria, is the most vital quality or attribute one can possess, surpassing mere televised appearances or beliefs.
While Meghan Markle's absence from the New York City feminist gala may have raised eyebrows, it also highlights the complexities of her relationships within the feminist community.
As the public continues to analyze her actions and associations, the question of authenticity remains a subject of debate.
