While the rest of the world was oohing and aahing over Buckingham Palace's release of stunning throwback wedding photos celebrating Queen Mary of Denmark's 20th anniversary, Meghan was likely at home seething with resentment. Why? Because another royal, none other than Sophie, Countess of Wessex, was out there dripping in regal elegance, wearing a tiara worth a cool £1.25 million.
While Sophie was strutting her stuff, channeling her inner queen at some foreign royal wedding, Meghan was probably stewing in her own envy, raging at the sight of someone else basking in the glory of royal jewels. It's the kind of privilege Meghan can only dream of these days, now that she's been permanently sidelined from the vault.
But here's the kicker: while Meghan might be feeling like the world's biggest diamond has been snatched from her grasp, the truth is, she only has herself to blame. After all, access to those priceless treasures is a privilege reserved for legitimate members of the monarchy—something Meghan forfeited the moment she decided to air the royal family's dirty laundry for her own gain.
But hey, that's the price you pay for biting the hand that feeds you, right? So, as Meghan sits at home, gazing longingly at images of Sophie dripping in diamonds, she can take solace in the fact that she's the one who chose to walk away from it all. And no amount of envy or resentment can change that.
