Jessica Mulroney’s estranged husband gives an update on his friendship with Meghan Markle
The word “mom” is used in Meghan Markle’s inner circle.
Years after the friendship between the Duchess of Sussex and her longtime friend Jessica Mulroney seemed to have taken a turn, the fashion stylist’s estranged husband Ben Mulroney has opened up about the current status of the once-close friends, but admitted he won’t reveal the details.
“This is a story that Jess needs to tell,” the Canadian media personality said on the Jan. 28 episode of the podcast “Can’t Be Censored.” “I’m not going to speak for her, so if she wants to talk about it, that’s fine, but my understanding is that they have a positive relationship.”
According to multiple media outlets, Jessica and Ben, who separated in July after 16 years of marriage, were close friends with Meghan while she was filming Suits in Toronto. In fact, the former actress’ three children were in the wedding party when she exchanged vows with Prince Harry in 2018.
However, Jessica and Meghan, 44,’s bond reportedly suffered a rift around 2020 when influencer Sasha Exeter accused Jessica of “textbook white privilege,” for which the former Good Morning America contributor later apologized. Jessica deleted her social media accounts in the wake of the accusations, but when she later reactivated her profile, she discovered that photos taken at the royal wedding had been deleted, sparking rumors of a rift.
