Meghan Markle’s Love for Luxury: A Closer Look at Her Designer Freebies
Much has been said about Meghan Markle's incredible journey from a relatively unknown TV actress to becoming the wife of the king's second son.
However, it appears that her affinity for the finer things in life has always been present.
According to Tyna Brown, a royal author and close friend of Princess Diana, upscale marketers were well aware of Meghan's interest in receiving expensive bags of designer freebies even before she married into the royal family.
In her explosive book, “The Palace Papers: Inside the House of Windsor, The Truth and the Turmoil,” Brown reveals that Meghan cleverly utilized her now-defunct blog, The Take, as a means of acquiring luxury goods for free.
This revelation sheds light on Meghan's resourcefulness and her ability to navigate the world of high-end fashion.
“The Palace Papers,” released earlier this year, offers an intriguing glimpse into life behind the palace walls, featuring shocking allegations about the royal family.
Brown spent two years compiling information from over 120 insiders and sources, providing readers with an unprecedented look into the inner workings of the House of Windsor.
One significant aspect of the book focuses on Prince Harry and Meghan's underestimation of life outside the royal institution.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Brown explained that Meghan was enticed by the allure of celebrity culture, unable to resist the temptations it offered.
She became a worldly strategist for Harry, who was unfamiliar with this realm, ultimately placing his trust in her above all other advisors.
Brown further elaborated on the power of the palace, highlighting its ability to convene and influence.
Buckingham Palace and Kensington Palace hold immense sway, with their phone calls being answered by anyone.
They possess the capacity to extend invitations from all corners of the world, allowing private secretaries to curate opportunities and make suggestions.
Within the pages of “The Palace Papers,” Brown exposes Meghan's penchant for freebies, leveraging her pre-royal celebrity status to receive gifts from luxury brands.
While this practice is not uncommon in the world of celebrities, the author suggests that Meghan's behavior sent a message to public relations professionals following her marriage to Prince Harry.
According to Brown, Meghan had garnered a reputation among luxury brand marketers as someone genuinely interested in receiving bags of designer swag.
In fact, after her wedding in 2018, a member of Meghan's new team reached out to a publicist, expressing gratitude and stating, “She's always been one of the good ones.”
Brown also delves into the alleged drama leading up to Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding.
The author reveals that Meghan treated the late queen's trusted aide and close friend, Angela Kelly, like a Hollywood stylist.
Reports of a disagreement over Meghan's choice of tiara circulated, with Harry supposedly declaring, “What Meghan wants, Meghan gets,” after her initial selection was denied.
Sources shared with Brown that there were heated arguments during the wedding preparations, and Meghan would occasionally raise her voice in front of staff.
The author further suggests that both Meghan and Harry share a mutual addiction to drama.
