Meghan Markle apparently wants to put the Martha Stewart drama to rest. An insider claims she would rather address the situation privately than let it grow. The tension began after Stewart’s comments about a dinner they both attended sparked a public pushback from the event’s host. Now, Markle may be trying to clear the air directly with the lifestyle icon.
Meghan Markle wants to clear things out with Martha Stewart, claims insider
Meghan Markle is hoping to speak directly with Martha Stewart as questions continue to surround their recent interaction, Naughty But Nice reports. The situation began after Stewart mentioned Markle during an interview with PEOPLE and discussed a California dinner they both attended.
Stewart allegedly suggested that Markle had spoken about her recent trip to Europe, which followed her meeting with King Charles. However, the dinner’s host later challenged that account. The host apparently told PEOPLE that Stewart’s version was “simply untrue.”
According to the host, Markle did not discuss the European trip in detail and only said that “the family had a great time.” In fact, Stewart was said to be “confused” over the account.
Still, the situation may not be heading toward a prolonged celebrity feud. A source claims Stewart has no plans to withdraw what she said. “Martha said what she said,” the insider told Naughty But Nice, adding that Stewart stands by her recollection of the conversation.
That leaves Markle facing a potentially awkward situation. However, according to another insider, she may prefer to resolve it away from the public spotlight. “Meghan would rather talk to Martha directly than let this become a bigger thing,” the source claimed. They added that Markle wants to “clear the air” and does not want the disagreement to linger.
As Naughty But Nice points out, the approach would also match how Markle has previously handled celebrity-related speculation. For instance, Gwyneth Paltrow once addressed rumors involving Markle in a lighthearted social media moment. Markle, who was seemingly sitting beside Paltrow at the time, appeared unfazed and later shared the clip herself.
However, Stewart presents a different situation. Unlike that earlier episode, Stewart has maintained her account of what happened at the dinner. At the same time, Markle’s alleged attempt to reach out suggests she may want to prevent the disagreement from becoming a bigger public story.
