MEGHAN Markle has “alienated a lot of former friends” and “cuts them dead” if they upset her, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex was recently seen attending the Los Angeles Children’s Hospital Gala on Saturday.

At the bash on Saturday Meghan was seen greeting young fans and rubbing shoulders with the likes of Demi Lovato and The Big Bang Theory‘s Kaley Cuoco.
But royal author Ingrid Seward has now claimed that the Duchess of Sussex “cut dead” a number of her pals.
She exclusively told The Sun: “Well, I think that Meghan has managed to alienate a lot of her former friends.
“She does something which is very distressing for people. She actually sort of just cuts them dead and ghosts them, as it’s called.
“But to me, it’s just called cutting them dead and not wanting to see them anymore.
“And if they upset her, that’s what she does and it’s very difficult to deal with somebody like that.
“I think that people are just fed up with Meghan.”
Ingrid added: “The point is that people are starting to be actually, you know, speak out about being unhappy with the the way that Meghan is.
“She was all smiles at one stage, and now she just looks different, and it doesn’t look real.”
Meghan’s former friend, British socialite Lizzie Cundy, 56, who also attended the same event claimed the Duchess needs Los Angeles more than the city needs her.
Lizzie previously claimed that Meghan “ghosted” her, cutting off all contact, once she became engaged to Prince Harry.
Ingrid added that after watching a video of the Duchess at the event, it looked like she was “posing for the camera” during the hospital visit.
“It did look very much as though she was just posing for the camera. She didn’t look like she was really involved in what she was doing,” Ingrid explained.
According to Ingrid, Meghan stayed long enough to be snapped in a few photos before she left.
The royal author continued: “She looked as if she was striking out on her own in a purposeful way.
“But if she only ever stayed for the pictures, which apparently she did, that’s counterproductive because she’s already got some bad publicity for just appear appearing and smiling and then disappearing.
“And that’s from people that were actually physically there.”
Meghan and Jessica Mulroney were also considered close friends.
Jessica’s three children were even pageboys and bridesmaid at Meghan’s 2018 Windsor wedding.
But the pair fell out two years later when Jessica was embroiled in a race row with Black Canadian lifestyle blogger Sacha Exeter.
Jessica issued two public apologies, but Meghan is believed to have kept her distance.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ‘are living separate lives’
By Jon Rogers and Summer Raemason
MEGHAN Markle and Prince Harry are ‘going their own ways’ as they increasingly live ‘separate lives’, royal experts told The Sun.
Speaking on our first ever Royal Exclusive Live show, Arthur Edwards and Jennie Bond lifted the lid on the power couple’s recent time apart.
Sun legend Arthur revealed how the pair are ‘doing things separately now’ after failing to be spotted together in three weeks.
Meanwhile Ms Bond, a royal correspondent for the last 35 years, also revealed: “Meghan is not popular. She doesn’t want to come back and they are going their own ways, to some extent”.
The pair spoke on our first Royal Exclusive Live show, which you can watch on our YouTube channel.
The event was hosted on Friday night in front of a live audience of more than 100 special guests.
Mr Edwards said: “I don’t think she [Meghan] can come here much.
“I don’t think people think too much of her.
“I think she’s struggling in popularity in the UK and I think they seem to be doing things separately now. She’s got her programme and he’s got his.
Mr Edwards added: “He comes into Britain now with no fuss.
“He’s come for the Invictus Games, in and out with no fuss, he came for his uncle’s funeral, no fuss.”
Royal commentator Jennie Bond said: “The point is he doesn’t want to come back [into the Royal Family in the UK], I think.
“He regarded it as a trap. He still thinks his father and his brother are trapped and he’s finding his own way.
“All credit to him.
“I think Meghan has her own independent style and way of life.
“Yes, it’s not in tune with the people in the UK.
“She’s not popular and I don’t think she wants to come back and therefore they are going their own ways, to an extent.
“But I hope and believe that Harry is very happy in his life.”
This comes after it was revealed Harry spent the night of his milestone 40th birthday without Meghan as rumours continue to swirl.
The Duke went on a hiking trip with pals to celebrate his big day – and failed to mention his wife, 43, in his birthday thanks message.
Although sources close to the couple insist it was Meghan who organised the lads’ trip, experts warned it could be a key sign things are not so rosy.
Their separate plans, followed by Harry’s solo trips across the past few weeks, has sparked speculation surrounding their relationship.
The Duke attended at a string of events in New York unaccompanied by his wife.
Harry appeared on his own at an event for the Halo Trust – a landmine charity which was close to Di’s heart.
He was also pictured without Meg during a high-level dinner organised by the World Health Organization (WHO) in the Big Apple.
Their separate appearances also included his surprise TV stint and tour of a haunted maze on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.
The Duchess of Sussex’s representatives have been contacted for comment.
