Recently, the controversial royal was spotted in Santa Barbara, California, on December 4, wearing workout gear and adorned with a collection of luxurious jewelry.
Notably, she wore Princess Diana’s watch and a Bentley and Skinner diamond tennis bracelet featuring 92 round-cut diamonds, estimated to be worth at least £4,900.
This bracelet holds sentimental value as it was a gift from King Charles himself on the eve of Markle’s wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018.
Additionally, she sported her Cartier love bracelet, which has ignited speculation about her intentions towards the king.
Opinions regarding Markle’s actions flooded social media, with users sharing their thoughts on X (formerly known as Twitter).
One user expressed skepticism, stating, “Support?
More like rubbing his face in it.
This is a paid pap walk of a narcissist.”
Another questioned whether Markle was offering an olive branch or simply mocking the king.
A fellow user pointed out, “She’s mocking him, just like she did with the titles.”
A fourth user echoed these sentiments, emphasizing, “She’s mocking him.
Like her brother said, she will never stop until KC does something to stop her.”
Interestingly, the Duchess of Sussex previously wore the controversial bracelet during a hike with friends when she chose not to attend King Charles’ coronation in London.
This latest incident adds to the ongoing controversy surrounding Markle, particularly after journalist Omid Scobie’s book, “Endgame,” was released last month.
In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, Markle and Prince Harry disclosed that two members of the royal family had expressed concerns about the potential darkness of their son, Prince Archie, while Markle was pregnant.
Although the couple did not disclose the identities of those involved, the Dutch translation of Scobie’s book revealed the names.
While most British press outlets refrained from publishing this information, Piers Morgan decided to reveal it on his uncensored talk TV show.
As of now, neither Markle, Prince Harry, nor the rest of the royal family have issued a statement addressing these allegations.
