Meghan Markle has caused a stir among royal fans after she stepped out in an outfit that cost an eye-watering £65,000. The 43-year-old glowed as she put on the chic display that featured a cosy knit sweater.
The Duchess of Sussex and Prince Harry stepped down as working members of the Royal Family back in 2018. They now reside in Montecito with their young children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lillibet, 3 – with Harry, 40, being accused of recently having an American accent.
Earlier this week Meghan welcomed women who re-settled in the Southern California area, down in Venice Beach and even got stuck into making a delicious meal in the kitchen. However, all eyes were on her elegant ensemble that was worth tens of thousands.
It sparked mixed reviews online with one user writing on X, formerly known as Twitter, saying: “Makes so much sense to wear ridiculously expensive clothes to talk to refugees.” A second penned: “She loves letting people not as well-off as her know how much she is above them.”
Although another disagreed and said: “I think she looks so stylish. Love the colours. It is her jewellery that ticks up the total, and we all wear expensive rings. I do not include my wedding ring in my outfit cost.” While a fourth person chimed writing: “I think Meghan looks really nice, she looks really well and has a glow.
