Uncomfortable Encounter at David Foster Foundation Gala Leaves Meghan Markle Unacknowledged

In an unexpected turn of events, a viral video has surfaced from the 40th anniversary gala for the David Foster Foundation in Victoria, Canada, where Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, attended on Friday. The footage shows a moment of awkwardness when David Foster seemingly snubbed Meghan by walking past her without acknowledging her greeting. While Harry received a smile from the Grammy winner, Meghan extended her arm to him only for Foster to walk straight past. However, it's important to note that David did appear to acknowledge Harry during their encounter. In the aftermath of the viral video, social media users have been discussing the incident, with many interpreting Foster's actions as intentional. One user commented, "He totally ghosted her but did acknowledge Harry," while another added, "This was soooo obvious." However, others argue that it was an innocent exchange. Some believe Meghan purposefully created space for a photo, questioning, "What’s wrong about this, she’s so kind giving a space for picture taking, where’s the snub?????" Another user wrote, "He walked by her as she was guiding him politely to take a photo. lol wtf is wrong with you people?" Representatives for Foster and Markle have yet to comment on the matter. The relationship between Harry, Foster, and their wives goes back years, with the duo sharing a close bond, particularly since Harry has been estranged from his own family. In 2020, Foster's wife, Katherine McPhee, spoke highly of her husband's friendship with Harry, describing them as "like father and son." It was also reported that Foster played a role in helping set up Harry and Meghan's access to a multimillion-dollar Canadian compound after they relinquished their royal titles. Meghan and McPhee have known each other since childhood, having attended the same school alma mater. This friendship adds an interesting layer to the viral video encounter at the gala. The incident serves as a reminder of the public eye that the royals, including Meghan Markle, often find themselves under. By clicking above you agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
