‘Dark cloud of Meghan Markle': Ex-BFF Jessica Mulroney regrets royal wedding role that ‘blew up' her life
Meghan Markle's now-estranged best friend Jessica Mulroney doesn't exactly look back on their friendship fondly, in fact, she might just be hating it now. As per a Daily Mail report, Jessica believes the controversy that nearly derailed her career and shoved her out of the spotlight might never have happened if she hadn't been part of Meghan and Harry's 2018 wedding. Years later, with her 16-year marriage to Ben Mulroney over, she's back in the news, and now reportedly calling that royal friendship one of her biggest regrets. Also read: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to handle Netflix crisis Obama-style as bankruptcy rumours grow; new projects in pipeline Meghan and Jessica's friendship goes way back, long before the Duchess met Harry. They once considered each other family, but things went downhill in 2020. That year, Jessica was accused of racist behaviour by Canadian influencer Sasha Exeter, and the fallout was instant. She was dropped by brands, stepped away from TV, and went into full damage-control mode. Her husband, Ben Mulroney, then a well-known Canadian TV host, also quit his job to support her. Insiders now say that Jessica's fame, exposure, and the constant media glare blew the controversy out of proportion, something that might've faded quietly had she not been linked to Meghan. 'If she could go back, a part of her wishes she was never in Meghan and Prince Harry's 2018 wedding,' a source said. 'While she enjoyed all the attention back then, that same exposure is what made the social media fallout explode, leading not just to the end of her friendship with Meghan, but also the breakdown of her marriage.' Jessica once claimed they were still close, even after the scandal, and called Meghan 'kind.' But now, she reportedly sees that entire chapter of her as a 'dark cloud.' They haven't been seen together or mentioned each other online since 2021.

Jessica and Ben have now decided to end their 16-year marriage. The couple, who share three kids, daughter Ivy and twin sons Brian and John, are heading for divorce. Page Six reported they separated a while ago, and Jessica was recently spotted at a wedding in Toronto where she reportedly told guests she felt 'sad, but also relieved' to finally have some clarity. Meghan and Jessica's friendship began on the sets of Suits in Toronto, and the duo instantly clicked over their shared choices in fashion, fitness, and career approaches. Jessica was reportedly also the one behind Meghan's wedding dress choice that her character, Rachel Zane, wore in the legal drama. The stylist was later spotted at the Sussexes' wedding as one of the prominent guests, and her twins took on the role of the page boys.

Were Travis Kelce and Ryan Reynolds quietly feuding before Taylor Swift cut ties with Blake Lively over legal drama?
What began as one of the most high-profile Hollywood friendships is now rumored to be unraveling behind closed doors. Taylor Swift and Blake Lively, once inseparable, have reportedly 'halted' their close bond after Lively became entangled in a legal battle with actor-director Justin Baldoni. But while Swift's withdrawal may appear sudden, sources suggest a deeper strain may have already existed—particularly between Swift's boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, and Lively's husband, Ryan Reynolds. Taylor Swift was caught off guard after being named in legal drama between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni The tension emerged publicly when Lively filed a lawsuit involving Baldoni, her It Ends With Us co-star, alleging reputational damage. In the process, Taylor Swift was unexpectedly pulled into the narrative, labeled by Lively as one of her 'dragons' in court documents. Baldoni briefly subpoenaed Swift before withdrawing, a move critics said was an attempt to weaponize her fame. Insiders claim Swift was 'blindsided' and had no desire to be associated with the legal mess. 'Taylor wants no part in this drama,' one source revealed. In response, she reportedly distanced herself from Lively altogether, leading to what appears to be a quiet but firm end to their once-public friendship. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Global Indices Are on the Move — Time to Trade!

Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni Legal Drama: It Ends With Us Co-Stars Come Face-to-Face for First Time in Case Deposition
Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni faced each other for the first time since the beginning of the legal drama in December. The co-stars met for the case deposition, which began on July 31. According to the media reports, the mother of four was questioned over her accusation of the actor-filmmaker while Baldoni was present in the room. As revealed by the sources, the Another Simple Favor star sat all day for the deposition while being under oath during the questioning. Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's case deposition begins According to her initial complaint, Blake Lively claimed that her co-star, Justin Baldoni, engaged in inappropriate behavior with her on the sets of It Ends With Us. The actress also filed the complaint against Baldoni for running a smear campaign against her. Weeks later, the Jane the Virgin star also filed a countercase against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, for extortion and defamation. Previously, the deposition date was announced to be July 17. However, with a mutual decision, the co-stars went on to agree that the hearing should take place at the end of the month. Ahead of the initiation of the deposition, the filmmaker's attorney, Bryan Freedman, made headlines for asking the hearing to take place "at Madison Square Garden, sell tickets or stream it, and donate every dollar to organizations helping victims of domestic abuse.' In the earlier interview with People Magazine, Freedman said, 'Since Ms. Lively is open to testifying, let's make it count.' He added, 'Hold the deposition at MSG, sell tickets or stream it and donate every dollar to organizations helping victims of domestic abuse.' Meanwhile, in response to the request, Lively's team released a statement where they stated that Freedman was trying 'to make this matter a public spectacle at every turn.' Lawyers of Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively announced that the trial for the case is set to begin in March 2026.
