Meghan Markle ‘embarrassed’ by Sophie Trudeau news
Meghan Markle has reportedly been left “embarrassed and humiliated” following Sophie Trudeau news.
Recently, Sophie – the ex of Canadian PM Justin Trudeau – addressed her friendship with the Duchess of Sussex. When asked if she was close to Meghan, Sophie replied: “I know her… but we haven’t spent much time together.”
However, Meghan had previously described Sophie as a “dear friend”.
According to reports, this ‘snub’ has left Meghan feeling “incredibly embarrassed”.

The source told Heat: “Meghan was understandably incredibly embarrassed and humiliated by Sophie’s snub – especially when she’d publicly gushed about their friendship and praised Sophie for her support.
“It was very much a signal for Meghan that even those she thought were in her corner are feeling the pressure to detach themselves from her in fear of having their name tarnished by the association.”
The insider added: “Meghan’s now worried about who’s going to turn on her next. She fears that if Sophie is acting like she doesn’t know her, bigger names will be sure to follow suit, which is causing her a great deal of panic.”
The source alleged that the duchess was “riding on her royal currency and celebrity connections”. Now, with “both of those waning,” it’s said she’s going to have to do “something major to turn it around”.
ED! has contacted reps for Meghan for comment.
This month, Meghan is set to travel to Nigeria with husband Prince Harry after his stop in the UK. Harry has returned to the UK this week to mark the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.
He’ll attend a ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral on May 8.

However, Meghan has remained in California with their two children – Archie, five, and Lilibet, two. Instead, she’ll join Harry on a trip to Nigeria soon.
Recently, a former newspaper editor claimed that Meghan’s trip to Africa is the duchess giving Brits “the V sign”.
Kelvin McKenzie told GB News last week: “Meghan has announced instead of coming to the UK to perhaps rally around the royal family in difficult times, both with the King and Kate, and what does she do? She nips over to Nigeria.
“Meghan keeps the title rather than coming back to the UK, she gives a V sign to the people.”
He added: “She likes the title but doesn’t like the country. Why doesn’t she just say so?”
Last week, Meghan and Harry’s Nigeria trip was announced. In a statement, the country’s acting director of defense information, Tukur Gusau, explained: “The Defense Headquarters has expressed its honour and delight for the acceptance of the Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, and his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan, to visit Nigeria in May 2024.
“The visit is to consolidate Nigeria’s stronghold at the Games and the possibility of hosting the event in later years.”

Dec Donnelly has reportedly promised to take his godfather duties “seriously” after his best pal Ant McPartlin became a dad.
Ant became a dad on May 14 as he welcomed a son, Wilder, with his wife Anne-Marie. Reports then claimed that Ant has made his best pal Dec Wilder’s godfather.
Now, according to a source, Dec has “promised to take his duties very seriously”.
Dec Donnelly and Ant McPartlin
The insider told OK!: “Dec is obviously so excited for Ant and has already been giving him advice – mainly how to deal with sleepless nights. He can’t wait to take on the role of godfather and he’s promised to take his duties very seriously.”
The source went on: “Wilder will practically be like a nephew to Dec, and he and Ant are excited for their boys to grow up together as there’s less than two years between Wilder and Dec’s son Jack – they want them to become as close as they are.”
Britain’s Got Talent hosts Ant and Dec are also apparently planning a joint summer trip with their families.
The insider added: “Also, Dec’s little girl Isla loves babies and is very pleased there is another baby around. They’re planning lots of playdates and family holidays – they’re all hoping to spend most of the summer in Portugal as they always do and are all excited for Wilder’s first holiday. Dec has also joked that Ant and Anne-Marie won’t need to spend a fortune on clothes as they can have all of Jack’s hand-me-downs!”
Meanwhile, the source said that the baby news will “strengthen their bond” as they’ll be able to “share experiences of having little children”.
ED! has contacted reps for Ant and Dec for comment.
Ant McPartlin baby news
It comes days after Ant and Anne-Marie announced the arrival of their son. Ant shared a photo of himself cuddling his newborn as he showed off a family tree tattoo.
He wrote: “Welcome to the family, Wilder Patrick McPartlin. Born, 14/05/24 at 8.54am. Baby is beautiful, Mummy’s a legend, sisters are over the moon. Dad’s a mess!”
Elsewhere, Ant recently addressed his tattoo after some fans thought that his dog Hurley – who he shares with ex-wife Lisa Armstrong – wasn’t included in the family tree.
Hey all, I just wanted to say thank
You so much for the kind messages of love and well wishes for our baby Wilder.
He’s doing great.
Glad you loved the tattoo as well
For all you dog lovers who asked why my beloved Hurley wasn’t on the family tree..he was!! He was just… pic.twitter.com/x4wjUnWAbw— antanddec (@antanddec) May 18, 2024

He has become a firm favourite in his role as a judge on BGT, bringing joy to viewers every weekend – but Bruno Tonioli once opened up on a “relentless” seven-year period which saw many of his family members and friends die in succession.
Bruno, 68, first lost somebody close to him when his mother Fulvia died from a heart attack at the age of 63 in 1994.
Soon after Fulvia’s death, Bruno’s dad Werther developed Alzheimer’s.

Werther wouldn’t pass away until July 2001, but Bruno’s close circle was struck by loss many times before then.
Speaking on Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs in 2017, Bruno broke down in tears as he spoke about grief.
He said: “Everybody passed away. Not just my mum – then my grandma, my grandfather, very close friends in London. It was a relentless period where you have knock after knock. It was seven years of nightmare.
“I was lucky to have a group of very close friends to support me.”
Dedicating the Rod Stewart song In My Life to them, Bruno said: “In spite of what has happened in my life, I might have moved away, but they’re still part of me.”
Bruno on Strictly
Speaking about his parents’ reaction to his work in the world of dance Bruno told the Mirror in 2005: “When I became successful as a choreographer, they realised I was earning a living doing what I liked to do. It all turned out fine, but it took a good 10 years. I could tell they were proud of me.
“My father was a keen ballroom dancer, and he would do that with my mother every weekend up until she died. He would have loved Strictly Come Dancing.”
Bruno acted as a judge on Strictly Come Dancing from 2004 until 2019.
Due to his work on Dancing with the Stars in the US, he was replaced by Anton Du Beke in 2020 due to Covid travel restrictions.
He joined the judging panel of Britain’s Got Talent in 2023, replacing David Walliams.
