Meghan Markle couldn’t resist free designer items even after tying the knot with Prince Harry and becoming a British Princess, according to a book.
Meghan, Duchess of Sussex married Harry in 2018. Before her wedding, the Suits star ran a lifestyle blog named The Tig and got luxury freebies, according to royal author and journalist Tina Brown.
In her book The Palace Papers: Inside the House of Windsor, the Truth and the Turmoil, Tina claims Meghan made sure the right people knew they could still send her free items after she became a princess.
She wrote: “She [Meghan] won a reputation among the marketers of luxury brands of being warmly interested in receiving bags of designer swag.”
Brown claimed that after Meghan and Harry’s wedding, the Duchess told a staff member to write to a publicist to: “Make sure [the publicist] knows that she can still send me anything. She’s always been one of the good ones”
Promoting the book in 2022, the author also claimed that the mom-of-two was eager about celebrity deals while planning her exit from the Royal Family.
She told The Washington Post: “Meghan couldn’t resist everything that was on offer on the celebrity buffet. They [Harry and Meghan] wanted to be able to have a commercial arm to their activities.”
“Meghan certainly saw deals that were there to be made that they had to leave on the table because they were royals,” she added.
