Jennifer Lopez reportedly had Meghan Markle removed from her 55th birthday party after the Duchess of Sussex showed up uninvited.
The star-studded event, held at a private mansion in the Hamptons, descended into chaos when Markle unexpectedly arrived. According to multiple eyewitnesses, JLo was furious upon seeing Meghan mingling with guests and quickly instructed her security team to remove her from the exclusive gathering.
The lavish celebration, attended by A-list celebrities including Ben Affleck, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West, and Rihanna, was the talk of the town. However, the festivities took an unexpected turn when Meghan, who was not on the guest list, managed to gain entry. "Meghan just showed up like she owned the place," one partygoer recounted. "She was wearing this huge, over-the-top hat and designer gown, totally trying to steal the spotlight."
Guests reported that Meghan made a beeline for JLo, likely hoping for a photo op or one-on-one time with the famous singer. An insider revealed that Meghan was actively working the room, introducing herself and trying to engage in small talk. At one point, Meghan attempted to approach Jennifer, but the singer's bodyguard intervened.
When Jennifer Lopez finally spotted Meghan, she was livid. Eyewitnesses say the "Let's Get Loud" hitmaker stormed over to Meghan, confronting her loudly and demanding to know how she had the audacity to crash the party. "Jennifer was yelling at Meghan, saying she had some nerve showing up uninvited," a guest disclosed. Lopez told Meghan to leave immediately or she would have her removed by force.
Apparently unfazed, Meghan allegedly claimed that she and Prince Harry were personal friends of Ben Affleck, who was hosting the party on Jennifer's behalf. However, Lopez was not convinced and told Meghan that regardless of her connections, this was her party, and she wasn't welcome. Jennifer insisted that Meghan leave immediately or she would call the police.
Faced with Jennifer's rage, Meghan had no choice but to leave, reportedly in tears. She was humiliated, trying to argue with Jennifer's security, but they simply escorted her out. While Meghan has not publicly commented on the incident, a spokesperson for Jennifer Lopez confirmed that Meghan was asked to leave. The statement read: "This was a private party for Jennifer's closest friends and family. Jennifer was very uncomfortable with Meghan's unexpected presence and felt it was inappropriate for her to be there uninvited. She politely but firmly asked Meghan to leave, and fortunately, there was no further incident."
This is not the first time Meghan has found herself in hot water for trying to insert herself into celebrity events. Earlier this year, she stirred controversy by showing up unannounced at the Oscars, leading to a confrontation with actress Andra Day. Just last month, Meghan was reportedly barred from the Cannes Film Festival after attempting to get on the red carpet without proper credentials. Many speculate that Meghan's thirst for fame and constant need for attention are beginning to wear thin with A-list stars. "She thinks she's on the same level as these huge celebrities, but they see right through her," said a source close to the situation. "She's becoming known as the party crasher who will do anything to get her name in the headlines."
For her part, JLo seemed unfazed by the drama. The multi-talented entertainer was reportedly back to enjoying her birthday bash shortly after Meghan's exit, dancing the night away with her closest friends. Based on glowing social media posts from the event, it appears the rest of the guests had a wonderful time celebrating Jennifer's big day, unbothered by the Meghan Markle incident.
