Anna Wintour's Dream Duo: Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle
Renowned for her discerning taste, Anna Wintour, host of the Met Gala, once hailed Meghan Markle and Princess Kate as the ultimate dream guests for the illustrious fashion extravaganza.
Expressing her fervent desire back in 2019, the editor-in-chief of Vogue voiced her aspiration to witness the much-discussed sister-in-law pair, the Duchess of Sussex and Kate Middleton, grace the gala's halls.
"I harbor a profound wish to welcome the Duchess of Sussex and the Duchess of Cambridge [Kate’s then-title prior to becoming the Princess of Wales] in unison," shared Wintour, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.
During that era, Anne effused, "Meghan and Kate would epitomize the quintessential dream couple for me."
Nevertheless, the esteemed British editor added a whimsical caveat, "They might graciously leave their spouses [Prince Harry and Meghan Markle] behind. It's their presence that truly enthralls me."
Yet, the once harmonious rapport between Meghan and Kate has since soured into a bitter feud following the former Suits actress's departure from the royal fold in 2020.
In the aftermath of "Megxit," the mother-of-two levied grave accusations against the Princess of Wales and other senior members of the royal family, igniting the flames of discord.
In the present day, Meghan continues to dominate headlines with her ventures into entrepreneurship and her burgeoning collaborations with Netflix.
Meanwhile, Princess Kate grapples with a poignant battle, undergoing preventative chemotherapy following her courageous revelation of a cancer diagnosis.
