Martha Stewart claims Meghan Markle was gossiping about private King Charles reunion at California dinner party
Martha Stewart is spilling the royal tea.
The famous homemaker outed Meghan Markle for allegedly gossiping about last month’s private reunion with King Charles at a recent dinner party.
“I had dinner with Meghan Markle the other night. We were both guests at a dinner party in California,” Stewart told People in an interview published Wednesday.
Stewart, 85, explained that the Duchess of Sussex, 45, “had just gotten back from the palace” when they saw each other.
“I didn’t talk to her really more than to say a couple words, but I know she was talking about it,” Stewart added of Markle.
Page Six has reached out to reps for Markle and Buckingham Palace for comment.
On July 10, Prince Harry, Markle and their two kids sat down with Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove House in the UK for a reunion four years in the making.
The last time the cancer-stricken monarch, 77, reunited with his grandkids, 7-year-old Archie and 5-year-old Lilibet, was in 2022, when they attended Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee.
A source told Page Six that from Markle’s “perspective,” the meeting “wasn’t entirely warm and fuzzy.”
Notably, the Sussexes’ visit to the UK had hiccups even before the reunion.
Page Six exclusively reported that Harry, 41, and Markle were denied taxpayer-funded security, and had their offer to stay at Buckingham Palace rescinded, leaving Harry by himself for most of the trip.
A source told People that the trip “turned into a nightmare” for Markle as she was forced to leave earlier than planned with the children.
Markle’s 45th birthday on Tuesday was also publicly ignored by the royal family.
Sources told Page Six that the palace did so because Markle and Harry haven’t been working royals since 2020.
Elsewhere in her People interview, Stewart had a harsh verdict on Markle’s attempt to step into the cooking space.
“If you’re an actress, it’s hard to then transition to a princess and then from a princess into a homemaking guru on a television show,” the cookbook author shared.
“It doesn’t sort of follow. So go from there,” Stewart added.
Following her departure from the royal family, Markle launched the lifestyle, cooking and hosting brand As Ever shortly after her lifestyle series, “With Love, Meghan,” premiered on Netflix.
Page Six exclusively confirmed Markle’s show was canceled in January after three seasons.
Two months later, the streamer cut ties with As Ever.
