Insiders reveal that Meghan Markle is reportedly feeling overwhelmed with jealousy towards Lauren Sanchez, believing that Jeff Bezos‘ fiancée is living a life of luxury that she longs for.
The 43-year-old former actress first crossed paths with Prince Harry in 2016 and became part of the British Royal Family in 2018, gaining access to immense wealth. However, since deciding to step back from royal duties in 2020, her journey has been tumultuous.
After returning to California, she has built a modest net worth estimated at around $60 million but has faced challenges in expanding it, with several unsuccessful business endeavors.
In contrast, Sanchez, who rose through the journalism ranks before starting a relationship with her billionaire partner, enjoys the freedom to pursue various ventures, even space travel.
This situation is believed to have sparked feelings of envy in Markle, who once aspired to fame as Rachel Zane in the series “Suits,” and is still trying to build her career years after leaving royal life.
“Lauren embodies everything Meghan hoped to achieve,” an insider shared with Rob Shuter. “Instead, Meghan finds herself selling preserves while Lauren is adorned in jewels at the Cannes Film Festival.”
The 55-year-old Sanchez is deeply integrated into celebrity culture and recently celebrated her bachelorette party alongside A-list stars, including Kim Kardashian and the Jenner family, as well as Katy Perry.
Meanwhile, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have faced difficulties maintaining their social circle since relocating to Montecito, with reports suggesting that friends are deterred by ongoing controversies.
“Lauren wields real influence,” an insider remarked, as per radaronline.com. “She has the wealth of Jeff Bezos and the capability to steer global discussions.”
“Meghan has a podcast that failed to take off, a jam venture, and a reputation for straining relationships.”
Markle’s podcast struggles to gain traction
Markle is attempting to launch “Confessions of a Female Founder,” a podcast created after her Spotify deal was terminated, during which an executive labeled her as a “grifter.”
Despite her efforts to generate buzz, her attempts to secure high-profile guests have been met with silence.
“She’s reached out to all the major names, but no one is responding,” an insider added. “The lack of notable guests is raising eyebrows.
“Especially for someone in her position. She lives in California, and her best result is a woman from a dating app? There’s no Taylor Swift, no Beyonce, not even a Hailey Bieber.
“Given that she’s promoting female empowerment, it’s noteworthy how few are interested in joining her show. This truly reflects on her allure. She’s frustrated with her declining appeal.”
