According to royal expert
Rob Shuter, Meghan Markle's former best friend
Jessica Mulroney is being offered $1 million to write a tell-all. "This is the scenario Meghan Markle has quietly dreaded," he wrote for his
Naughty But Nice Substack.

Jessica Mulroney and Meghan Markle were close for years before the Duchess of Sussex met
Prince Harry. However, the two fell out after the stylist was canceled over a controversy with fashion influencer
Sasha Exeter. "Jessica has absolutely nothing left to lose," one source told Rob Shuter. "Meghan cut her off years ago. The friendship is dead. The loyalty went with it."

Meghan Markle's quick shift away from Jessica Mulroney over the scandal showed there was no love lost between the two. "Classic Meghan," a second insider said. "The moment trouble hits, she detaches. No mess, no mercy."

Despite Jessica Mulroney's ex-husband, Ben Mulroney, claiming she and Meghan Markle are on "positive terms" since their 2020 rift, a third source claimed that isn't the case. "That's pure fiction," the insider said. "There's been no real contact for years."

If Jessica Mulroney writes a book, Meghan Markle could have her most personal moments revealed to the public. "This wouldn't be vague," a fourth source said. "It would be specific, personal and deeply uncomfortable." A fifth source added, "If she talks, Meghan won't like what she hears."
