Meghan Markle was noticeably absent from Oprah Winfrey’s 69th birthday party last month despite presence of Hollywood’s elite.
“Obviously, had Meghan not married Harry she wouldn’t have even had a chance of going to such a party anyways. You know, because she was a two-bit actress,” opined commentator Sam Dowler on GB News.
He added: “Part of me wishes to have been a fly on the wall when she saw the pictures in the morning.”
Dowler claimed that the question of the Sussexes and King Charles III’s coronation may have also influenced the decision for Meghan not to attend the soiree.

He said: “The thing is, these people are the upper-echelons of Hollywood A-listers and with the King’s coronation coming up, they don’t want to be seen taking sides or anything like that.
“I think it could be embarrassing because they love William and Kate in America and if Oprah’s got Meghan and Harry hanging around socially, it looks, well, you know.”
Speculation on whether Meghan and Harry will attend the King’s coronation has become a hot-button topic among royal watchers in recent weeks.
In Prince Harry’s memoir Spare, the Duke levelled a series of potentially damning allegations against the Royal Family including at King Charles’ wife Camilla, Queen Consort and Harry’s brother Prince William.

However, King Charles has reportedly enlisted the help of the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby to enter into negotiations with the Sussexes about their attendance.
He is said to believe that Meghan and Harry’s absence could cause more of a distraction than the couple attending the coronation.
King Charles III’s coronation will take place later this year on May 6, 2023.
