Meghan Markle Extends a Subtle Olive Branch to Victoria Beckham Amid Their Alleged Falling Out
Meghan Markle’s fame skyrocketed the day her relationship with Prince Harry went public back in 2016. The two were introduced through a mutual friend, and after meeting on a blind date, they clicked instantly. A whirlwind romance turned into a 2018 royal wedding, and Meghan has made plenty of ultra-famous friends along the way.
Still, Meghan isn’t quite as close with some friends as she once was. Namely, Meghan and pal Victoria Beckham had an alleged falling out a while back, and it ultimately impacted Prince Harry’s relationship with David Beckham as well. But the Duchess of Sussex might have just sent a subtle olive branch to her former friend.

Meghan and Victoria have not been close in quite some time, according to rumors. Long story short, Meghan and Victoria were friends; Victoria and David attended Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018. But somewhere down the line, Meghan supposedly became suspicious that Victoria and David were leaking stories about Harry and Meghan to the press. Harry, in turn, had an “awkward” phone call with David, and the friendship was effectively over.
The jury is still out on whether all of that is true, but even if it really happened, Meghan seems to be over the drama. During her four-day Colombia tour with Harry in August 2024, Meghan was spotted wearing a top from Victoria’s fashion collection. It seemed to send the message that she wants to put the past behind her.
Meghan Markle has a few close friends she keeps in her inner circle
Meghan and Harry’s move to the United States came with plenty of criticism. The two kept a close-knit circle and had falling outs with some other friends, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise given they were embroiled in controversy whether they liked it or not. Of course, David and Victoria Beckham were two friends who reportedly saw distance with the couple.
These days, Harry and Meghan keep a tight crew. Celebrities like Tyler Perry and Serena Williams have remained in the couple’s inner circle, while longtime friends like Jessica Mulroney have made their way out.
Harry and Meghan recently embarked on a four-day trip to Colombia, where they talked about their philanthropic work, especially in the digital space. It’s here that Meghan extended the subtle olive branch, but it’s unclear if things between the Sussexes and the Beckhams will improve over time.
