Jessica Mulroney, a Canadian fashion stylist and noted confidante of Meghan Markle, has stirred up the fury of royal commentators. Royally Obsessed podcast hosts Roberta Fiorito and Rachel Bowie discussed the recent actions of the Duchess of Sussex’s former close friend. Ms Mulroney has come under fire for a series of social media posts that have been branded “odd” and “really icky”.
Ms Bowie told listeners: “My low this week is Jessica Mulroney still being in the news.
“In late August, she posted and then deleted a throwback picture of Meghan from the Royal Wedding with her son smiling in the background as he carried Meghan’s veil.
“The caption read: ‘I see this and pure joy’.
“Last Tuesday, Mulroney addressed the photo deletion via her Instagram story.”

The royal commentator continued: “She said: ‘with the amount of bullying and hatred I’ve had to put up with for three years, I’m tired of looking of looking at it’.
“But a source told Page Six: ‘I don’t know what the tipping point was, but Jess has been on the out for some time.
“‘Their friendship is definitely not what it was and really how can you have such a close friendship when one person is basically making a career out of the friendship?’
“Jessica Mulroney in this post said that women should stop tearing each other down and I totally agree with that sentiment.”
She told listeners: “I don’t think we’ll ever hear Meghan Markle speak about this controversy ever, but it just seems to not be going away.
“I think that Jessica Mulroney should probably take a step back from social media.
“She should stop posting and deleting, it’s all very weird.”
The pair famously had a close friendship at one point, as depicted in the unauthorised biography, ‘Finding Freedom’.
Ms Mulroney was responsible for looking after Meghan’s son, Archie, while the Duke and Duchess completing their final engagements in the UK.
