Meghan Markle's 'Problematic' Ex-Friend Shares Cryptic Video About Duchess on Instagram

Meghan Markle's ex-friend, Jessica Mulroney, shared a cryptic video about the former working royal on her Instagram account.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex's ex-bestie Jessica Mulroney, shared yet another cryptic video on her Instagram profile that features a mystery woman making a subtle reference to Mulroney's falling out with the former actress.

"Anybody who believes lies about you, before even hearing your side of the story, was already looking for a way to be against you, do I need to say that one more time?" the person in the clip stated.

The stylist was firm friends with the Suits star throughout the mid to late 2010s and played a large role in the royal wedding between the actress and Prince Harry in May 2018. Mulroney's twin sons, Brian and John, were page boys during the popular elopement ceremony that saw the beautician arrive at St George's Chapel on the grounds of Windsor Castle near Kate, the then-Duchess of Cambridge.

The pair's friendship abruptly ended in the spring of 2020 during the Black Lives Matter protests following the murder of George Floyd. Influencer Sasha Exeter said that Mulroney was "problematic" for not publicly acknowledging the protests and the homicide of Floyd, which was caused by police brutality. Several brands stopped associating with the stylist due to this criticism, and news began to leak that the Duchess of Sussex severed contact with Mulroney as well.

Markle and Mulroney are said to have bonded and become close when the future British royal was living in Toronto while she filed the USA network legal drama. She also praised her for her designs and ability to coordinate a wide range of styles for a variety of personalities.

"And here's the other thing — she also happens to be an incredible stylist, clothing the likes of Canada's First Lady, Sophie Trudeau. So when I asked her what I should wear for Christmas parties and New York soirees, I thought you may enjoy the same sage and chic advice. You're very welcome, darling!" Meghan wrote about Mulroney on her defunct lifestyle blog, The Tig.

Mulroney is not the first friend of Markle's that has been dropped or suddenly ghosted for bizarre and abrupt reasons.

Made in Chelsea alum Millie Mackintosh and Meghan met at a hotel in 2015, and the two stayed in touch for quite a while.

"I definitely would say we were not best friends, but when she was in town, she would let me know, and we would sometimes hang out,” Mackintosh said on the May 10 episode of her "Mumlemmas & More" podcast. "When Meghan met Prince Harry, things changed. I messaged her and said, 'Hey, I hope you’re OK, thinking of you,' and she sent me this really abrupt message, that was really unlike any of our communications before," she said. "It’s not like I messaged her asking if it was true, that was none of my business. What I read from that message was that she needed a bit of space, to cool off," Mackintosh continued.
