In a shocking turn of events, Ellen DeGeneres reportedly ousted Meghan Markle from her wife Portia de Rossi's birthday party following a contentious exchange.
As the Duchess of Sussex attempts to divert attention with a new rumor, she's been cautioned to distance herself from the talk show host, whose workplace practices have faced scrutiny.
Meghan Markle and Ellen DeGeneres initially bonded in 2017, deepening their connection when Markle got engaged to Prince Harry in 2018. Their camaraderie extended to appearances on DeGeneres' talk show, reflecting a seemingly close bond that persisted after the Sussexes relocated to the US in 2020.
The duo even attended Ellen and Portia's vow renewal last year, affirming their status among A-list guests. Ellen, praising Meghan and Harry as "down-to-earth compassionate people," had previously showcased their connection, including the adoption of a rescue chicken.
However, recent reports suggest a fracture in their friendship. Meghan's WME agency allegedly advised her to steer clear of Ellen due to allegations of a toxic workplace on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." As Meghan aims to rebuild her image, insiders caution against association with Ellen, emphasizing potential harm to her and Harry's hard-earned reputation.
Sources reveal a strategic move by Meghan, releasing PR to counteract potential backlash from her recent appearance at a police fundraiser. Ellen, rejecting Meghan's favor request, allegedly resisted involvement with the Sussexes' rumored mansion sale.
Moreover, Ellen's exclusion of Meghan and Harry from wife Portia de Rossi's birthday celebration added fuel to the rumors. While Hollywood luminaries graced the event, Meghan, once Ellen's friend, was notably absent. The comedian's Instagram post celebrating Portia featured a sweet message, further underscoring the conspicuous absence of Meghan and Harry.
As speculations intensify about the rift between Meghan and Ellen, it remains to be seen whether this friendship will endure or become another casualty of the Sussexes' journey into the American limelight.
