The Duchess of Sussex was rumoured to become the Duchess of Dior earlier this year but it seems she has lost the big opportunity to the actress who plays a young Kate Middleton in The Crown.
Meghan Markle has lost out on the opportunity of a lucrative Dior job to a Kate Middleton actress just months after it was rumoured that the Duchess of Sussex could become the Duchess of Dior.
It was revealed last week that Meg Ballamy, 21, who plays a young Kate Middleton in the new series of the hit royal drama The Crown is to be the new face of Dior with fans saying that the news of the brand’s new ambassador “must make Markle cry”.
A source told Closer Magazine: “They [brands] have been queuing up for Meg. She is being treated like Kate, an A-list princess”, the Mirror reports.
The Daily Mail also reported that an insider said: “They have been queuing up for Meg, she is playing the most famous woman in the world in a globally famous television drama, so many labels and brands want some of that.

Back in June, it was widely speculated that Meghan was on the right path to becoming the Duchess of Dior during the same time that she and Prince Harry were dubbed as “f***ing grifters” by a top Spotify executive after their $25million contract was terminated.
According to a source back in the summer time, the Duchess’ new agent Ari Emanuel, the chief of talent agency William Morris Endeavor (WME) was said to be pushing Meghan’s clout as a top fashion influencer.
A source from WME told the Mail on Sunday at the time: “We knew the Spotify announcement was coming. It might be a shock to everyone else but we’ve been working on the rebranding of Meghan for weeks. Ari is the best in the business when it comes to corporate deals and making money.
“He’s excited to be representing Meghan and has thrown all his energy into it. The offers have been pouring in, including from other podcast platforms.”
