The REAL Story of How Meghan Lost Her Best Friend: They’ve Not Spoken in Years… But Now Insiders Reveal ‘Aggravation’ and Tensions That Go ‘Deeper Than Anyone Knows’
For years, Meghan Markle and Jessica Mulroney were inseparable — a friendship built on trust, laughter, and shared ambition. From Meghan’s days as an actress on Suits to her rise as the Duchess of Sussex, Jessica stood firmly by her side. But today, the two women are no longer speaking, and sources close to both reveal that the fracture runs far deeper than anyone has realized.
Jessica Mulroney, a Canadian stylist and television personality, was once a key figure in Meghan’s inner circle. The two met while Meghan was living in Toronto filming Suits, and they quickly bonded over fashion, philanthropy, and a shared love of social causes. Jessica became a trusted confidante — even helping Meghan navigate the intense scrutiny that came with dating Prince Harry. When Meghan married Harry in 2018, Jessica was front and center at the royal wedding, her children serving as page boys and bridesmaids.
But somewhere along the way, their friendship unraveled. Publicly, the rift appeared to emerge in 2020, after Jessica became embroiled in a social media controversy during the height of the Black Lives Matter movement. Accused of leveraging her privilege and mishandling a dispute with influencer Sasha Exeter, Jessica faced intense backlash. Many assumed Meghan distanced herself to avoid further negative attention, but insiders now claim the tension between the two women began long before that.
According to close friends, “There was aggravation building for years.” The pressure of Meghan’s royal life, constant media intrusion, and the challenges of fame reportedly took a toll on their dynamic. “Jessica struggled with being labeled ‘Meghan’s best friend,’” one insider explained. “She wanted to maintain her own identity and career, but being in Meghan’s orbit made that difficult.”
After Meghan and Harry stepped back from royal duties in early 2020, some expected the pair’s friendship to reignite, but it never did. “They’ve not spoken in years,” a source revealed. “It wasn’t one single argument — it was a slow fade, driven by resentment, misunderstandings, and distance.”
Insiders also say Meghan felt hurt that Jessica sometimes “used their friendship for visibility,” while Jessica reportedly felt abandoned during her own public struggles. “There’s aggravation on both sides,” the source continued. “Each feels the other didn’t show up when it mattered.”
Despite rumors of reconciliation, sources insist the friendship remains broken. Jessica has since focused on her family and fashion work in Canada, while Meghan has built a new life in California with Prince Harry and their two children. Those close to both women say that although there’s no public animosity, the bond that once defined them is unlikely to return.
“Their friendship was very real and very deep,” said one insider, “but fame, distance, and hurt feelings got in the way. What they shared can’t easily be rebuilt.”
What began as a sisterhood that weathered royal storms has quietly faded into silence — proof that even the closest friendships can crack under the weight of fame, expectation, and unspoken pain.
