Meghan Markle quashes Victoria Beckham feud rumors with subtle gesture during Colombia tour

LONDON, ENGLAND: The tension between Meghan Markle and Victoria Beckham seems to have diminished!

This change follows Meghan's subtle display of support for Beckham at an event in Colombia. During their four-day tour, Prince Harry and Meghan have been capturing attention on social media. 

This development comes amid rumors that the Beckhams and the Sussexes have drifted apart in recent years. It was speculated that there was a disagreement between Meghan and Victoria after reports surfaced that stories about the Sussexes were being leaked to the media, which reportedly left David Beckham "furious" over the allegations.

Meghan Markle shuts down claims of feud with Victoria Beckham

Meghan Markle wore a brown silk shirt and a new pair of silky La Ligne pants from Victoria Beckham's 2020 collection during a summit on "Responsible Digital Future" in Colombia, where she was accompanied by Prince Harry.

Markle had previously worn this blouse to support President Joe Biden during the 2020 election campaign, OK magazine reported. 

Victoria and Meghan, who first met in 2013, seemed to have had a friendly relationship prior to their falling out, with the former praising the duchess' Christmas Day 2018 outfit from her collection.

“She looked so beautiful,” Victoria said on 'Live With Kelly and Ryan' shortly afterward. “It was such a lovely surprise to wake up to on Christmas morning. I think that she's such a beautiful, strong, wonderful woman, so it was a huge honor."

'Beckham' receives multiple Emmy nominations

It remains uncertain whether the disagreement between Prince Harry and David Beckham persists, especially given that in July, neither'Harry & Meghan' nor 'Heart of Invictus' received Emmy nominations, while 'Beckham' received five nods this year. 

The Emmy nominations were announced on July 17, and Prince Harry and Meghan were high hopes that 'Heart of Invictus' would garner recognition in the non-fiction categories. Their previous series received no Academy nominations, which was reportedly "devastating" for Meghan.

The follow-up series on Harry’s Invictus Games struggled to rank in the top ten on Netflix after its August 30, 2023, release. In contrast, Beckham’s documentary became a hit when it premiered on October 4 of the previous year.

With both couples having produced notable Netflix documentaries, it is clear which one is being favored. 

“Making this series was such a personal journey, a love letter to football and my family,” David Beckham said. “It has been overwhelming for me and Victoria that we have had such a warm and positive response to the series.” 

David reportedly sought retribution against Prince Harry for a perceived slight in 2018, which Meghan is alleged to have instigated. “Beckham found himself alone at the Invictus Games stadium,” wrote author Tom Bower in 'House of Beckham'.

“Arriving on the agreed day to meet Prince Harry he was perplexed why officials were playing a dance to keep him happy, but away from Harry. Photographs of the two together were forbidden. The royal snub was brutal. David Beckham was puzzled. Why did the prince refuse to meet him?” Bower asked
