I agree - she looked nice after Archie’s birth - less skinny and angular - softer.

She has had a lot of work done to her face. thats clear. I think It actually makes her look older, looking a lot older than Harry and he is no oil painting or benchmark.

I've seen more of the outfit. It's a camisole & skirt.

Not keen on the clearly different materials between to two. And I still think the top would have been better as a more 'structured' look, and higher fitting. She looks like she has no bust there.
The skirt is too full & long, too "fussy" for the event. A shorter skirt, maybe mid calf would have been perfection.

Makeup lovely, hair maybe a wee bit too severe, but she's definitely had some facial work done. Very well done I will say, but definitely done.

I’ve now seen the outfit from the rear; the spaghetti straps are set so far apart on the edge of the shoulders that it makes her back look extremely broad - maybe she’s doing a lot of swimming? A decent stylist would have adjusted the straps or found another black tank top that flattered to start with

She does have broad shoulders in comparison to her torso and waist/hips.

A fitted "bodice" type top, with thicker straps that attached to the top a bit closer on her back would have narrowed the look of her shoulders and torso a bit, and also her waist.

She can look amazing, then make mistakes likes this - I wonder if she doesn't have a single stylist, but works with a few? Her looks can be inconsistent, she would be better sticking with one IMO.

With just a couple of tweaks this look could have been stunning.

Their rules are for other folk not them. Like everyone being equal and be kind.

Or maybe she doesn't care and wants to wear what she likes and who cares if it doesn't narrow her shoulders and they look broad

I think that photo seems stretched in a way but what do I know

I hope she’s ok, I do wonder if all the stuff They have done , and the public reaction to it, is taking its toll on her. On both of them.

to be honest, what she said she dealt with in the royal family is nothing compared to what she’s dealing with now. Watching her it feels like she’s lost a lot of confidence.

when they left they were so confident, so arrogant and entitled, so waspish and vitriolic in their interviews, but that’s not who I see now. It’s clear they did the stuff they did, as they thought it was a good idea. That it benefited them, and they were very mistaken and got it wrong.

she presents as nothing like the bubbly confident woman who met Harry a few years ago, even her body language is of someone timid , nervous and reserved. Maybe it’s just getting her face done and she was worried about people’s reaction. I don’t know.

Sarah vine in the fail, made me chuckle. She said it without saying it..

”When I saw the pictures of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the premiere of the Bob Marley movie in Kingston, Jamaica, the first thing that sprang to mind was how thoroughly refreshed they both looked.
Indeed, I had to do a double-take to make sure it really was the duchess that Prince Harry was escorting and not some dewy, doe-eyed lookalike.
Perhaps it was just a trick of the light, but she certainly seems to have upped her skincare routine since we last saw her.”

brilliantly done comment 😂

Very sad. Imagine leaving your home, flying 8 hours to Jamaica with glam outfits and make-up/hair person in tow, to have photos taken of you as you enter/leave a movie theater for an unknown movie....when you live within driving distance of Hollywood and the Oscars nominations have just been released. It's not like they're promoting anything for their personal gain, or for their country or government. Just what are they doing by this sort of thing? Visibility? Relevance? Their choice of venue only highlights that they're not doing this in Hollywood. Schmoozing the Paramount person? Can't believe they had to go to Kingston to do that. Making a point about Jamaica wanting to leave the Commonwealth? Don't think they're interested in the UK government at all beyond what they can get out of it (which is no more than they already have).

Couple this with Ozempic + face/eye lift + fillers + botox for Meghan, hair plugs and shoe lifts for Harry, a barrage of ridicule in their new home directly impacting their ability to earn, supposed paranoia around security for them and their children, estrangement from all family members on both sides bar a couple, various lawsuits in the offing, no clear means of earning a living in their early 40s.... Just very sad. Difficult to see what the future holds for a couple who have so dramatically and publicly self-sabotaged. Their insecurity and shaky foundations are clear for all to see, and it's very sad.

Meghan used to have such a natural and pretty girl next door face - now not so 😔

It does seem like M has had some work done. I guess it's very common in LA and even in the US in general but it's really sad to see an attractive woman who looks younger than her age feel the need to do it

She looks decidedly odd in one of the photos. But it might just be the camera angle. She is normally very photogenic and there aren't many bad photos of her. Shame if she goes down the plastic surgery route. It has absolutely ravished the faces of folk like Meg Ryan and Priscilla Presley. Who were once very attractive women.

I think it’s a funny angle. I hope so anyway, it would be a huge mistake to mess with her face too much as it’s a good one!

That’s what I see now too. She doesn’t look happy. The painted on smile doesn’t hide her unease. Harry sometimes looks lost , overwhelmed, bored or irritated but he does look happier in those photos. She does not.

That’s the word, unease. She looks uneasy, she’s trying to cover it, but she’s clinging on to Harry for dear life. Her smile doesn’t reach her eyes.

he doesn’t look uneasy, more gritting teeth and getting it over with. I agree he looks way more comfortable than she does.

which is the exact opposite of how it used to be, the engagement pics for example, she loved the camera., but now she looks uneasy , wary and uncomfortable. And like she needs harry for support. She no longer looks like she’s holding his hand as some couple thing, but like she’s doing it for actual support.

It's not just one pic or one angle! Silly girl.

Oh come on, Meghan is gorgeous. Nothing will change that.

Blimey, you sure? Priscilla Presley , Meg Ryan, the list of gorgeous women who have ruined their faces with surgery is endless.

where as I don’t think Megan is gorgeous to be honest, I do think she’s attractive, and her face does look different. I think she was more attractive before the work when she looked more natural and her face had more expression,

i think she’s had her eyes done. The upper lids, and cheek fillers, and something to smooth her skin. Potentially a thread lift and Botox.

i hope she stops there, it’s been done well. And that she doesn’t go the route of many celebs and ruin her face.

She was absolutely gorgeous before she started fiddling.

The side by side photos above are a world apart.

Now she sports a neugeneric face - in itself attractive to some I suppose - but entirely devoid of individuality or character.

I agree with all this.

Me too.

And that is even more of a shame than the ‘work’.

I don’t agree with some of the things they’ve done, but it never feels like a good thing when someone’s spirit is not what it was.

She looks like a totally different woman.

To me it looks like she has had cheek implants (n that photo), and is still swollen from the procedure, that would affect the appearance of her eyes. She also has had too much botox so her face is immobile. Such a shame, I think someone has already said it, but she now has that generic LA plastic surgery look.

If you look closely at the side by side , at her eyes, you can see on the inner upper bit above rhe lid, the flesh is becoming hooded, in the older image, but it’s now gone in the now image .no hooding, So she’s definitely had them done.

amd you can also see in the older image, on the left hand side as you look at it, her cheek is flat at the side, it goes straight down, on the new image it bulges out at the side at the cheek bone. Giving her profile a different shape, I assume filler

and lastly you can see all her wrinkles have gone. The appearance is very flat and smooth, the skin taut,so I suspect maybe a thread lift,with Botox.

i think she’s had a lot done, but it’s been done well, cheek filler though I think is too much, the bulging at the sides is visible.

I think it’s all so noticeable as she is wearing such a severe hairstyle. I doubt there are many people who looked at those pics and didn’t immediately realise her face had changed and she’s lost her expression.

I always think if procedures are done well, people don’t look dramatically different…. just themselves but rested and maybe having had a great facial. 🤷🏽‍♀️
