This year, there have been several Sussex outings which have not sparked too much discussion in the British media. That’s called “seething” and “ignoring any evidence to the contrary of their preset narratives.” The British media wants to pretend that Prince Harry and Meghan didn’t get invited to Kevin Costner’s first responder fundraiser in Santa Barbara, where Costner invited the Sussexes on stage to present awards, and the Sussexes hung out with A-listers and wealthy people. The British media wants to pretend that Prince Harry wasn’t really invited as a guest of Mercedes to the United States Grand Prix in Austin. The British media wants to pretend that Harry wasn’t hanging out with celebrities and A-listers at an Inter Miami-LA Galaxy game. And the British media absolutely wants to forget that Meghan went to Beyonce’s special birthday concert in LA, and that Meghan hung out with Ted Sarandos, Jeff Bezos and Beyonce’s inner circle, like Kerry Washington and Kelly Rowland. Well, Hello Magazine asked Kelly Rowland about it and Kelly is a big Meghan fan. I don’t imagine that these quotes will be picked up by many British outlets:

Legends only! As previously reported, Meghan Markle celebrated Labor Day at the Sofi Stadium in Los Angeles, taking in Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour concert on September 4 with some very famous seatmates: Kerry Washington and Kelly Rowland, with dazzling pics of the trio to prove it. For Kelly’s part, the singer and actress was impressed by the Duchess of Sussex, she told HELLO! at a WaterWipes event in Brooklyn on Saturday.

“It was my first time meeting her,” the Destiny’s Child alum said. “It was just nice being there with other great women and being able to just simply talk.” It turns out Kelly and Meghan, both 42, and Kerry, 46, have more in common than a love of Beyoncé: all three women have spent a considerable amount of time in the public eye, and are married moms to two young kids each.

“I don’t know what people expect to see or to know, but she just felt very cool and very down to earth. She is very warm,” the “Motivation” singer enthused — and added that Meghan had a regal bearing independent of her very famous husband and in-laws.

“She was royal before she was in that family,” she told HELLO! “I think that we are royalty before anything. And we have to hold ourselves in that regard as humans, as people.”

YES! “She was royal before she was in that family” SAY IT LOUDER. Of course, Kelly softened it a bit with “I think that we are royalty before anything. And we have to hold ourselves in that regard as humans, as people.” The Windsors aren’t going to like that but it’s especially true in Meghan’s case. She was royal before was part of that family. She has a regal bearing regardless of her title.
