Meghan Markle’s ex-best friend is not currently following the Duchess of Sussex on Instagram after their reported “fallout”.
The Duchess of Sussex’s former best friend Jessica Mulroney appears to have snubbed the @meghan Instagram page, which launched on New Year’s Day and boasts 1.4 million followers.
The Canadian stylist, 44, who befriended Meghan while she was living in Toronto and filming Suits, does not follow the royal’s Instagram page.
Meghan has shared a reel of herself running on the beach, as well as a trailer for her new Netflix lifestyle show and a tribute to her late Beagle Guy.

Meghan and Mulroney have never spoken publicly about their “fallout”, but the pair used to be very close.
The stylist is married to Ben Mulroney, the son of the former Canadian Prime Minister, and she joined the Sussexes on their royal tour of Australia, Fiji, New Zealand and Tonga.
As well as attending Meghan’s lavish New York baby shower in 2019, Mulroney is said to have played an “influential” role in Megxit.
However, the duchess appeared to distance herself from her former friend after Mulroney was caught up in a “white privilege” row with blogger Sasha Exeter in 2020.

Exeter accused Mulroney of having “taken offence” to a “generic call to action” post which the blogger had shared about the Black Lives Matter movement.
Following Exeter’s claims, Mulroney issued three public apologies, however, she was dropped by numerous television networks.
US network ABC severed ties with her, confirming that Mulroney would not be returning to her occasional role as a fashion contributor on Good Morning America.
Canadian TV network CTV also cut off ties with the stylist, revealing that it would be pulling all episodes of her wedding-themed reality TV show “I Do Redo” from its platform.

In December 2015, the duchess said “the room stops” whenever her friend “shows up at an event.”
Gushing about the effect Mulroney has on people, Meghan described her as “savvy and fashionable and tres cool, and also va va va voom pritaaaay.”
