Duchess Meghan and Sophie Trudeau were actually considered close friends. But the relationship between women has obviously changed. Trudeau admits this in an interview with “The Times” and consciously distances himself from Prince Harry’s wife.
Duchess Meghan and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau met in 2015
Duchess Meghan met the Canadian in 2015. The women met at Fashion Week in Toronto. At the time, Meghan was in front of the camera for the series “Suits”. How close Sophie, who was the wife of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, 52, for 18 years, and Meghan only became known in 2022. At that time, the ex-senior royal invited Trudeau as a guest on her podcast “Archetypes”.
Prince Harry’s wife described the 52-year-old as an important caregiver in the podcast episode “Good Wife/Bad Wife, Good Mom/Bad Mom.” Sophie Trudeau is said to have supported her, particularly during her pregnancy, and despite the distance, sent her voice notes “of encouragement”. In addition, Meghan felt very close to the TV presenter through her role as a public figure. “She knows what it feels like to be a mother and partner in public,” Meghan Markle said at the time. There was also talk of a private meeting with the children. It sounded like a wonderful friendship that withstood “Megxit”. But appearances are deceptive, as the 49-year-old now reveals.
Sophie Grégoire Trudeau: “I know her, but…”
In an interview with “The Times”, Justin Trudeau’s ex reclassifies the relationship. So she admits: “I know her, but we haven’t spent much time together.” The moderator does not discuss why the relationship developed this way.
In the past few weeks it has become clear again and again that Duchess Meghan has given up her once so close connection to Canada. The mother of two hardly seems to have any confidants there anymore. Even contact with her former best friend Jessica Mulroney, 44, has dried up. The mother of Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2, has built a new circle of friends in California.
