Meghan Markle Reportedly Cuts Ties with Ellen DeGeneres After PR Fallout.

Once upon a time, Meghan Markle and Ellen DeGeneres were Hollywood neighbors and A-list friends. But according to a new report from Rob Shuter, their once-tight bond has hit a serious snag.

Sources allege that Meghan has quietly removed Ellen from her inner circle, and the reason isn’t just one single incident—it’s a series of PR disasters and personal grievances that may have pushed the Duchess of Sussex to her limit.

😬 The Talk Show Appearance That Changed Everything

Back in 2021, Meghan’s appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show was supposed to be a fun, light-hearted PR move to “humanize” her after leaving royal life. Instead, it sparked a wave of backlash.

If you remember, Meghan took part in Ellen’s notorious prank segment—rocking a hidden earpiece while performing silly dares. From eating tortilla chips “like a chipmunk” to sipping milk from a baby bottle, it was… a lot. While the clip racked up millions of views, insiders now claim Meghan felt blindsided by how the stunt played out in the press.

And as if that wasn’t enough drama, Ellen and her wife, Portia de Rossi, reportedly moved to the U.K. last year—something insiders claim left Meghan feeling “betrayed,” given her strained history with the country and its media.

While some reports suggest the Sussexes were supportive of Ellen’s decision, other sources say Meghan took it personally. “She thought Ellen understood why she left the U.K.,” an insider shared. “It stung.”

👑 Where Their Friendship Stands Now

At this point, Meghan and Ellen’s relationship seems to be on ice. Whether it’s temporary or a full royal freeze-out remains to be seen.

One thing’s for sure: if this friendship really is over, it marks yet another dramatic chapter in Meghan’s complicated post-royal life.
