Meghan Markle has recently faced strong criticism from the outspoken Lady C, who has accused her of faking a friendship with her hairdresser.
Meghan Markle appeared in Los Angeles to attend a launch party for her friend and hairdresser, Katie Lee. The event was to celebrate the launch of Katie’s new wellness haircare brand, which Meghan has invested in. Meghan was quoted by InStyle saying, “Katie is a master of hair health, and her Highbrow Hippie collection is the perfect reflection of that.” Katie Lee, based in Venice, LA, has worked with numerous A-list clients, including Brad Pitt, Sigourney Weaver, and Julia Roberts.
Lady C Takes to Twitter: Enter Lady C, who took to Twitter to slam Meghan for what she calls a “fake” friendship with her hairdresser. Lady C tweeted, “Oh my goodness, Meghan Markle just keeps sinking deeper. Her people—who suspiciously sound a lot like her—are digging deeper into the bottom of the barrel, trying to make news by announcing that she has a new best friend: her hairdresser.” Lady C doesn’t hold back, adding, “How long until this hairdresser gets ‘Markled’—T-minus two minutes.”
She goes on to criticize Meghan for using people like Katie Lee to keep up appearances. Lady C insists that Meghan’s “best friends” are now just people she pays for services, highlighting that no one in Meghan’s peer group genuinely wants to be close to her. “A celebrity,” Lady C writes, “who is a mere publicity-hungry figurehead. She’s resorted to paying someone to be her ‘best friend.’”
The Allegations Against Meghan: The heart of Lady C’s argument is that Meghan is paying for this “friendship.” She points out that Meghan is not only an investor in Katie Lee’s new brand but also that Meghan’s presence at the party was based on her financial involvement, not a true bond of friendship. Essentially, Lady C suggests that Meghan is paying for the services of this hairdresser, which makes her more of a business partner than a friend.
A Narcissistic Love Bomb? Lady C’s claims also raise questions about Meghan’s behavior—could she be “love bombing” her hairdresser, claiming they’re best friends as a way to manipulate her and the public? For those unfamiliar with the term, love bombing is a tactic where someone showers you with attention and affection to win your trust, only for their behavior to later turn manipulative. Could Meghan, known for her manipulative tactics in the past, be using this hairdresser to create an image of herself as a relatable, down-to-earth person?
Your Thoughts? So, what do you think?
Is Meghan Markle genuinely friends with her hairdresser, or is it just another example of her using people for publicity? Some may argue that Lady C is being too harsh, while others may agree with her perspective on Meghan’s questionable friendships.
