Meghan Markle has sparked controversy among royal supporters after making what's been deemed a "disrespectful" move, leaving Princess Diana fans absolutely reeling.
The Duchess of Sussex released a new video through the As Ever Official Instagram page, her lifestyle brand, with viewers rapidly noticing something particular. In the clip, Meghan is shown strolling along a pathway while carrying a bottle of wine. It was posted with the caption: "For gathering all summer long. Refreshing Sauvignon Blanc. Celebratory Brut. Light and bright Rosé."
Yet, despite the focus intended to be on the product itself, people found their attention diverted elsewhere entirely. This emerges after it was reported Meghan had suffered a "new blow."
On X, Nancy Sidley posted: "Meghan Markle wants the world to know she's DONE with that c***** a** engagement ring Harry gave her. Princess Diana's tiny diamonds are not cutting it anymore."
Upon watching the footage, viewers will observe that Meghan is solely wearing her wedding band, with her diamond engagement ring conspicuously absent. While there may be an explanation for this, the decision certainly sparked considerable discussion.
One responded: "I've been waiting to see what she's done with it 'this time'. She hasn't worn it in months." Another stated: "Ungrateful."
A third commented: "Oh wow. The ring is missing. Interesting." Meanwhile, a fourth remarked: "So silly."
Elsewhere, someone else also observed: "Ungrateful, and disrespectful from the very beginning!"
However, some maintained it was her personal choice whether to wear the ring, and others applauded her. The video has undoubtedly generated considerable debate.
A different individual commented: "Men have to stop surprising women with engagement rings. Shop together."
Another observed: "My darling Meghan looking absolutely stunning. I adore her in white." One more also declared: "She is amazing."
Regarding the ring itself, there is reportedly a poignant story behind it. The original ring is understood to have featured a central diamond from Botswana, a destination the couple treasures, flanked by two diamonds thought to originate from one of Princess Diana's tennis bracelets.
The tribute to Diana was considered rather "touching," while the Botswana centre stone serves to represent the couple's mutual affection for Africa. However, Meghan is believed to have made several modifications to the ring throughout the years.
Reports suggest Meghan has changed and enhanced her engagement ring at least three occasions since 2017. These alterations are thought to correspond with significant milestones and transitions in her life.
