Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, finds herself embroiled in a new controversy as her former designer comes forward to reveal the truth behind her ill-fated outfit at the Bob Marley one-love movie premiere in Jamaica.
The anonymous designer alleges that Markle wore a gown that was ill-suited for her body and refused a better design that was offered to her.
Furthermore, the designer accuses Markle of fabricating information about her height and motherhood, thereby raising doubts about her credibility and integrity.
Having collaborated with Markle for several years, the designer expresses shock and disappointment at her choice of attire for the premiere, which took place at the Carob Theatre in Kingston on Tuesday, January 23, 2024.
Markle opted for a black leotard-style top paired with a voluminous black skirt by Carolina Herrera, a designer she has previously worn.
The designer asserts that the chosen outfit did not flatter Markle’s figure, making her appear shorter and heavier than she truly is.
Describing it as a disaster, the designer criticizes the gown for being excessively long, loose, and heavy, dragging on the floor and resembling a tent.
According to the designer, the ensemble failed to suit Markle’s style and made her look more suited for a funeral rather than a movie premiere.
In contrast, the designer claims to have offered Markle an alternative gown that exuded elegance and sophistication.
This black silk crepe dress featured a fitted bodice, a mermaid skirt embellished with crystals and pearls, and drew inspiration from Bob Marley’s music and message.
The designer believed this gown would have paid a perfect tribute to the reggae legend while highlighting Markle’s curves and beauty.
Describing it as a masterpiece of craftsmanship and style, the designer envisioned it as a way for Markle to shine and display her respect and admiration for Jamaican culture and history.
However, Markle reportedly rejected the designer’s creation and insisted on wearing the Carolina Herrera skirt, which the designer claims was a last-minute purchase.
The designer accuses Markle of rudeness and arrogance, stating that she did not appreciate his work or advice.
According to the designer, Markle displayed stubbornness and ingratitude, asserting her status as the Duchess of Sussex and dismissing the need for assistance or opinions.
Additionally, the designer alleges that Markle lied about her height and motherhood status, providing evidence to support these claims.
Markle purportedly claimed to be 5 feet 6 inches tall, but the designer’s measurements revealed her actual height to be 5 feet 4 inches.
Furthermore, Markle allegedly asserted that she was pregnant with her third child, while the designer discovered through medical records that this was not the case.
This pattern of deception leads the designer to label Markle as a liar and a fraud, manipulating the truth to appear taller and more pregnant than she truly was, all in an effort to gain sympathy and attention.
Motivated by a sense of duty to uphold the truth and protect their own reputation, the designer has chosen to step forward and expose Markle’s lies and flaws.
Undeterred by any potential backlash from Markle or her legal team, the designer asserts possessing evidence, including photographs, videos, documents, and witnesses, to substantiate their claims.
Emphasizing their professional and ethical conduct while working with numerous celebrities and royals, the designer states that Markle stands out as the worst client they’ve ever encountered and the worst person they’ve ever met, describing their experience with her as a nightmare.
