He is also godfather to the couple's daughter Lilibet - which royal expert Hugo Vickers believes reflects a strong friendship.
Earlier this week Tyler Perry was sued for sexual assault and harassment by fellow actor Derek Dixon, which Perry's team has denied as "a scam".
Now, royal experts believe Meghan will turn her back on her former friend amidst a sexual assault claim.
Speaking on The Sun's Royal show, expert Samara Gill has suggested that the allegations against Perry could damage the Sussexes' brand.
Samara said: "There's nothing very Christian about a sexual assault claim and I think it's just one other damaging thing to add to their now-war chest of things that have been a problem for them."
She added: "I think it shows the type of people that Meghan likes to surround herself with and I think it is damaging to their brand yet again because he was meant to be their closest friend."
Samara also pointed out that the couple had made the most of Perry's wealth - including his home, and his plane - when they left the royal family in 2020.
Now though, she thinks the couple will be keen to distance themselves from the alleged abuser.
She added: "Just watch how quickly they go."
Samara criticised the couple's hypocrisy, as they cut off toxicity "even though they're the ones who are really toxic."
It's part of a pattern of behaviour that Samara said reflects their eagerness to use people before throwing them aside.

Perry previously let the couple stay in his $18 million LA home after they left the UK in 2020.
At the time, he spoke on Today with Hoda and Jenna about his decision to let them stay at the lavish property.
Perry said: "It was a very difficult time for them. What I know about the two of them, and I wish the world knew, how much these two people love each other."
More recently, Tyler appeared in the Meghan's new Netflix show.
Earlier this week Tyler Perry was sued for sexual assault and harassment by fellow actor Derek Dixon.
The lawsuit claims $260 million in damages for harassment that occurred over several years.
Dixon alleges that Perry repeatedly sent sexually suggestive texts, despite Dixon making it clear he wasn't interested.
This later progressed to Perry groping Dixon in July 2021, the lawsuit alleges.
Finally, Dixon filed a complaint with the Equal Employment and Opportunity Commission in June 2024, before leaving his role in The Oval.
Matthew Boyd, an attorney for Perry, gave the following statement to PEOPLE.
He said: "This is an individual who got close to Tyler Perry for what now appears to be nothing more than setting up a scam.
"But Tyler will not be shaken down and we are confident these fabricated claims of harassment will fail."
