Meghan Markle and Millie Mackintosh met at a hotel opening in Turkey
Meghan Markle befriended the reality British television star Millie Mackintosh who became famous by participating in "Made in Chelsea" at a hotel opening in Istanbul sometime before Meghan met Harry.
While appearing on the "Mumlemmas & More with Millie & Charlie" podcast, Mackintosh mentioned that "She cut me dead" as she received a very direct text from Markle once she began dating the Duke of Sussex.

"I never heard from her again and I never messaged
her again because I felt like she kind of told me to f-k off basically in
that message. Meghan Markle ghosted me, babe."
"I do know what
it's like to have a lot of media attention. It can be really overwhelming
and it can be unpleasant, so I messaged her and just said like, 'Hey, hope
you're OK. Thinking of you,'"
According to Millie, Markle responded to the text with a very
unlikely message as they normally had warmer communication.
"What
I read from that message was that she maybe needed a bit of space. Maybe
needed to cool off, she was angry, she was maybe under a lot of pressure ...
So I didn't message her again ... But I did expect that we would stay in
touch," Mackintosh claims.
