As reports swirl about Prince Harry’s thriving solo projects and their impact on the Duchess, Meghan Markle has made a public statement, but her focus was on celebrating her wedding dress designer, Clare Waight Keller, who recently joined Uniqlo as creative director.
Speaking with The New York Times, Meghan expressed admiration for Keller’s work, calling her designs for the Japanese brand “full of movement and modern grace.” She revealed that she already owns several pieces from Keller’s new collection, underscoring their longstanding friendship, which Meghan described as “beautiful” since her 2018 wedding.
Keller also spoke about her time designing Meghan’s wedding dress during the 2023 Bazaar At Work Summit in London, describing their collaboration as a “very personal girlfriend relationship.”
The Duchess’s remarks come amid reports from Closer Magazine suggesting she is struggling with the professional separation from Harry, as he adjusts easily to his independence. “Not having him there is difficult,” an insider shared, adding that Meghan may now be questioning if pursuing separate ventures was the best choice.
