In the world of show business, it can be boldly stated that nothing lasts forever, from careers to relationships and friendships. Certainly, someone who has quite a bit to say on this last topic is Meghan Markle. Prince Harry's beloved has been living in the spotlight for years, and her life's ups and downs are of great interest to industry portals. At 42 years old, it must be admitted that something is always happening with her.
At one time, the media was abuzz about Meghan Markle's close relationship with Victoria Beckham. According to reports at the time, Prince Harry and David Beckham were also said to share a strong bond. Over time, the relationships between all four of them visibly deteriorated. The media speculated that this occurred right after the British prince's wedding to the American actress. Facts have just emerged that shed new light on the matter.
The background of the conflict between Meghan Markle and Victoria Beckham
The two women seemed to get along well, but trouble began when "The Sun" published an article about their friendship. Allegedly, Meghan Markle did not like the media frenzy that ensued. Celebrity biographer Tom Bower said in an interview with "The Independent" that although Meghan initially blamed Victoria for the leak to the press, it turned out to be a beautician. However, the sense of discord between the women remained.
Only after The Sun reported how Victoria had given Meghan make-up advice did the relationship between the two ambitious women crash – explained Bower as quoted by "The Independent".
Meghan Markle was jealous of Victoria Beckham's money
But cosmetic mishaps weren't everything. It turns out that another reason was Harry's wife's jealousy over the Beckhams' financial status. As Tom Bower suggests, Meghan did not like that Victoria and David could boast a substantial fortune.
She was irritated to discover that the Beckhams had considerably more wealth than herself. They owned five homes, had constant access to private jets, invitations to sail on yachts and much more money. And she was soon to be a duchess – states the biographer.
