Meghan Markle’s recent appearance at a book event in California left royal fans divided. The Duchess of Sussex made a Surprise visit to Goodmothers bookstore in Summerland, California, where she joined her close friend Oprah Winfrey for a special book club session.
Meghan, dressed in a chic, sleeveless navy jumpsuit by Club Monaco, paired with diamond earrings, spoke alongside actor Marco Leone and astrologer Dr Jennifer Freed at the intimate gathering. While some fans praised Meghan’s minimalist style, others were less than impressed with her outfit choice. Critics took to social media to express their disappointment, with one user commenting: “What is her obsession with NOT HAVING SLEEVES? And no colour.”
Another added: “Why does she keep wearing these off the shoulder outfits?” Others criticised the cut of the outfit. One person tweeted: “Her stylist should advise her to wear a different sleeve length to avoid this look,” and another commented: “Cut off sleeves are 90s fashion.”
Despite the criticismMeghan’s followers were quick to defend her look, applauding her simple yet chic style. “Meghan looks amazing in this jumpsuit and it suits her well. Clearly Meg doesn’t skip shoulder day!” tweeted one fan. Another admirer noted: “It’s a very flattering cut on her on top,” while a third simply said: “I love this jumpsuit on her! She looks FABULOUS.”
The event took place at Goodmothers, a bookstore co-owned by literary agent Jennifer Rudolph Walsh. Before the book club session, Jennifer highlighted the bookstore’s dedication to promoting local authors, including Meghan and Prince Harry. In an Instagram video, Jennifer showed off the bookstore’s “local authors shelf,” which features Harry’s memoir. Replacement and Meghan’s children’s book The benchsaid The mirror.
“We celebrate our hometown authors as if they were our local heroes because to us they are,” she explained. Meghan, who lives in the nearby Montecito neighborhood with Harry and their children, Archie and Lilibet, has been friends with Oprah for several years. Given their close relationship and proximity, it was no surprise to see the duchess attend the event, which was held just a short drive from her family’s mansion.
