Garcelle Bouvet, a familiar face from the Royal Housewives of Beverly Hills, has recently joined the exclusive group of influencers who received Meghan Markle’s special jam.
Alongside well-known personalities like Chrissy Teigen, Heather Durack, Tracey Robbins, and Kris Jenner, Garcelle has become part of this select circle.
Residing in Northridge, just an 80-minute drive from Montecito, she has not shied away from expressing her views on the Royal Family feud and sharing her thoughts on the Prince and Princess of Wales.
During Lilibet’s first birthday celebration at Frogmore Cottage in Windsor in 2022, amidst the late Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee, Garcelle criticized Prince William and Kate Middleton for being absent.
While the royal couple was in Wales overseeing concert rehearsals at Cardiff Castle, accompanied by their children Prince George and Princess Charlotte on their inaugural royal walkabout, Garcelle deemed their absence as questionable.
She remarked that it seemed shady for the future King and Queen to miss such a significant family event.
In a candid appearance on E!
‘s Daily Pop Talk show in June 2022, Garcelle reiterated her sentiments regarding Kate and William’s absence during Lilibet’s birthday celebrations due to their royal commitments during the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Expressing skepticism towards the coincidence of their scheduling conflicts, she pointed out that adjusting their flight by a few hours to attend the birthday festivities would not have been impossible.
Garcelle implied subtle disapproval by stating, “What a coincidence we’re out of town, I’m washing my hair, there’s a little shade there.”
Garcelle’s alignment with Meghan Markle became evident when she proudly displayed her jar of the Royal’s American Riviera Orchard Jam, emphasizing her support for the Duchess.
She took to social media to share a snapshot of the jar placed amidst vibrant yellow lemons, showcasing her solidarity with Meghan’s cause.
Moreover, she criticized the emphasis placed on Lilibet’s birthday party, labeling it as a mere ploy to gather footage for Netflix, rather than a genuine family celebration.
In response to Meghan’s friend’s criticism of Princess Catherine, a source retaliated by highlighting that neither King Charles nor Queen Elizabeth had met Lilibet.
This revelation lends credibility to previous claims that Lilibet had not visited the UK, as suggested by various sources.
Notably, media ally Chris Shipp’s acknowledgment that King Charles had not encountered Lilibet further solidifies the notion that the royal family dynamics may not be as harmonious as portrayed.
The speculations surrounding Harry and Meghan’s reluctance to bring their children, Archie and Lily, to the UK for family gatherings continue to fuel gossip columns.
Despite pleas from individuals like Chris Shipp, Kate Manzy, and Jack Royston for the royal couple to reunite the children with their British relatives, the narrative remains clouded with uncertainty.
The ongoing saga of familial rifts and missed opportunities for bonding underscores the complexities within the royal household, leaving many questioning the authenticity of public appearances versus private relationships.
