Meghan Markle's ‘love story' anniversary tribute to Prince Harry reignites fake baby bump conspiracy
Meghan Markle posted a series of never-before-seen photos on a mood board as a tribute to her husband, Prince Harry, on their seventh wedding anniversary. One particular picture from her 'love story' board has prompted trolls to fire up an existing rumour about her pregnancy. Many claimed that a picture of her showing her pregnancy bump is not real, but a realistic fake pregnant belly prosthetic.
'Obvious Moonbump. She bought the wrong colour,' an individual claimed, referencing the company Moonbump, which makes fake pregnancy bellies. Another commented, 'The Moonbump has the exact same shape as Meghan's 'pregnant belly'. That's too much of a coincidence."
A third remarked, 'It always has been a Moonbump! Her pregnancies were fake, those kids exist, but did not come out of her!' A fourth wrote, 'I love that she posted a blurry bare belly bump that is several shades darker than the rest of her skin.'
Earlier last year, Meghan's estranged sister and father prompted a huge surrogacy row after they cast doubt on Meghan Markle's pregnancy over the birth of Archie in 2019, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's firstborn. The couple welcomed their second child, Lilibet, in 2021.
In 2024, her estranged half-brother also uploaded a bizarre video in which he accused Markle of faking her pregnancy. 'Me-again Swamp-donkey Crotch,' Thomas Markle Jr said in the video while impersonating Meghan Markle in an odd way. He used a nickname for Markle by internet trolls, Me-again.
'I was just showing off the new bump I bought on eBay out of Montecito,' he added in the video.
This, however, was not a new controversy. Since the birth of her two kids, trolls have launched social media hate campaigns like 'Meghan Markle was never pregnant' and claiming that she was wearing a Moonbump.

Los Angeles protests: Meghan Markle's appearance at Natural History Museum gala postponed
Meghan Markle was all set to appear on June 14 at the Night of Wonder gala organized by the Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County (NHMLAC). The event has now been postponed due to the ongoing violence in Los Angeles in the aftermath of raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials. The event will now be held at a later date, as per People magazine. The decision to reschedule the event was taken by the Natural History Museum's leadership, Board of Trustees and event partners. They agreed that postponing the event was 'the appropriate response to current community circumstances,' the Natural History Museums of Los Angeles County said in a release. 'As an institution 'of, for, and with Los Angeles,' our responsibility during challenging times is clear: to serve as a community resource focused on healing and unity, not celebration,' Dr. Lori Bettison-Varga, President and Director of NHMLAC, told People. The event was planned to celebrate the Duchess of Sussex's work championing 'underserved communities.' In 2020, the Suits alum moved to Montecito, California, with Prince Harry and their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, after the couple stepped back from royal duties. Since then, Meghan has been part of several events across Los Angeles, including the Paley Honors last year. 'We are proud to honor Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, a native Angeleno, whose work to advance community wellbeing and expand opportunity — especially for underserved communities — aligns with our equity-focused approach to developing science literacy for the next generation, including through our STEM and STEAM Pathways programs,' Dr. Bettison-Varga said in a statement. The event's postponement echoes another rescheduling related to the Duchess of Sussex's ventures. Earlier this year, Meghan postponed the premiere of her Netflix series With Love, Meghan due to the wildfires ravaging LA and other parts of California. She is the host of a show called With Love, Meghan. The show has been renewed for a second season. The Suits star stepped back from acting to marry Prince Harry in 2017. She shares two kids with her husband Prince Harry, Archie and Lilibet.

Meghan Markle shares her go-to home remedy for seasonal allergies on podcast with Beyoncé's mother Tina Knowles
Meghan Markle recently revealed her go-to home remedy for treating allergies. During a bonus episode of her Lemonada Media podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, the Duchess of Sussex grew concerned when her guest, Tina Knowles, sneezed and mentioned struggling with allergies. Meghan then shared the natural solution she personally relies on to manage similar symptoms. (Also read: Ishaan Khatter shares he lost 8–10 kgs in 2 months to play a 21-year-old in Homebound: 'I had to lose all my muscles' ) In the May 27 bonus episode of her Confessions of a Female Founder podcast, Meghan sat down for a candid chat with Tina Knowles, Beyoncé's mother. Meghan grew concerned when Tina sneezed and admitted she'd been struggling with allergies. That's when the Duchess of Sussex asked, "Oh no, do you eat local honey? That can help." Tina replied that she "used to," prompting Meghan to encourage her to get back on the habit. A post shared by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex (@meghan) "You have to get back on that because the other day, one of Archie's little friends at school, this little girl has such bad allergies," Meghan explained, referring to her and Prince Harry's 6-year-old son. "I said, 'Hold on a minute, we have bees, let me give you a little jar of our honey." When Tina mentioned that Beyoncé also keeps bees, Meghan shared more about their own backyard apiary: "Yes, we have a little apiary down there, three of them," she said. "And Archie has his little beekeeper suit with the little hat on and the gloves. It's great." She added that using local honey can help naturally relieve allergy symptoms: "If it's local honey, you get that pollen, all the same things in your system, and it desensitises allergies." While local honey is often touted as a natural remedy for seasonal allergies, scientific evidence remains inconclusive. A 2013 randomised controlled trial published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine found no significant improvement in allergy symptoms among participants who consumed local honey compared to those who took a placebo. Similarly, a 2021 Cochrane review on complementary therapies for allergic rhinitis concluded that evidence supporting such remedies, including honey, was weak to moderate, emphasising the need for more rigorous research before honey can be recommended as an effective allergy treatment.
