It seems our beloved Barbadian superstar, Rihanna, orchestrated the most buzz-worthy bash of the year to mark her 36th birthday.
The event, under the auspices of WME, unfurled a twist: Megan Markle, herself, was conspicuously absent from the guest list. Picture this: the scene in Milan, well past midnight, as our birthday queen Rihanna makes a grand exit, bedecked in tiara and all, leaving a trail of glitter and a waft of expensive perfume.
She's flanked by ASAP Rocky and their offspring, a departure befitting pop royalty. But where was Megan Markle? Certainly not in Milan, that much is certain. Amidst 30 of Hollywood's finest, the crème de la crème, everyone who's anyone was there, except Megan. Apparently, Rihanna deliberately opted for a conscious uncoupling Hollywood-style by excluding Megan from this star-studded affair.
And this wasn't your run-of-the-mill gathering; it was a constellation of A-listers from WME's clientele, names that could dazzle even the most stoic among us. Amidst this glittering galaxy, Megan's absence stood out like a flat note at the opera.
Let's rewind to 2016 when Prince Harry and Rihanna shared smiles in Barbados, sparking rumors faster than tabloid fodder. However, fast forward to today, and it appears the only thing fizzling out faster than those rumors is Harry and Megan's invitation to A-list events. While Megan presumably scrolled through her contacts wondering where her invite had vanished to, Prince Harry was making headlines of his own.
Word on the street is that Harry's eager to get back into the royal fold, talk about bad timing or perhaps just wishful thinking. Ingrid Seward, the no-nonsense royal biographer, practically scoffed at the idea of Harry waltzing back into royal duties. According to her, Harry's been living in La La Land, thinking he can simply walk back in. Let's get real here; between Prince Harry and Megan's candid Oprah interview and the less-than-flattering Netflix series "The Bridge," the path leading back to Buckingham Palace isn't merely scorched; it's utterly obliterated.
As Rihanna's party carried on into the early morning hours, one thing became abundantly clear: in the glittery world of showbiz and royal intrigues, fairness doesn't always prevail in matters of love and war. For Megan and Harry, the once-flowing stream of party invitations and royal receptions now dries up faster than a parched California summer. Speculation about the status of Megan's relationship with WME has reached fever pitch after they relaunched their business in charitable ventures under a new umbrella, Sussex.edu.
Megan's name is notably absent from William Morris's new website. Could she have been quietly dropped? Reacting to the speculations, one fan wrote, "They certainly haven't made any money from representing her. Is she paying them? I truly believe that they've quietly dropped her, and an announcement is forthcoming. I wouldn't be surprised; associating with her is social and career suicide."
Another chimed in, "Megan's been struggling to rebuild her acting career since her departure from the royal family in 2020. Earlier, it was reported that Megan lost a potentially well-paid deal to 'The Crown' actress Meg Bellamy due to her intensifying rift with senior members of the royal family. Several royal experts believe that Megan's trying her best to land lucrative deals; however, her alleged involvement in creating controversies against the royal family has rendered her efforts futile."
