Drama is brewing behind the scenes as Meghan Markle reportedly faced a frosty reception from UK charity Smart Works after allegedly demanding a $5,000 retouch and reshoot of her latest promotional material.
The Duchess of Sussex, once celebrated as a patron of the women’s employment charity, is now being accused of turning a goodwill project into a diva-level PR circus.
According to insider sources, Meghan was unhappy with the original photos and footage taken for the campaign, allegedly insisting on extensive edits, glam team involvement, and a complete reshoot — all at a steep cost.

Critics have slammed the move as another example of Meghan putting optics over impact, while supporters claim she simply wanted to ensure the best representation of the charity’s work.
Either way, the message was loud and clear: the charity world doesn’t have time — or money — for royal-level vanity projects.
