The Duchess of Sussex recently shared a selfie video highlighting her charitable efforts to assist those affected by the devastating California wildfires.
In the brief clip, Meghan Markle appeared without makeup while publicly acknowledging Billie Eilish for her involvement in a meaningful cause. The video quickly gained traction online, sparking mixed reactions—some praised Meghan’s natural beauty, while others speculated about potential changes to her appearance.
Dressed casually, Meghan wore a black crewneck sweater paired with high-waisted blue jeans. The sweater carried a sentimental touch, featuring the names of her children, Archie and Lilibet, embroidered in white cursive near the neckline.
Keeping with her relaxed look, the mother of two accessorized with two gold bracelets and wore her brown hair down in soft waves.
However, as the video circulated on social media, discussions about Meghan’s appearance intensified. Some observers scrutinized her features, with one person remarking, “She looks makeup-free, but she’s had a nose job and Botox on her nose.” Another added, “She had a nose job years ago—you can tell.”
Others speculated whether this was a recent change, with one user asking, “Did she get a nose job? It’s starting to look like Michael Jackson’s.” Another questioned, “Has she had another nose job? What number are we on now?”
Some critics went beyond her nose, pointing out alleged enhancements to other features. One person commented, “We can see the changes to her eyes, nose, and teeth.” Another asked, “When did she get lip fillers?” while someone bluntly stated, “She’s had a full facial reconstruction.” A different commenter simply joked, “That’s the Ozempic face 😂😂.”
Despite the skepticism, many came to Meghan’s defense. One fan gushed, “Meghan looks so fresh, youthful, and naturally beautiful.” Another admirer wrote, “My Princess. 😘” A supporter also noted, “She radiates natural beauty without makeup, but her makeup skills are also incredible.”
Speculation surrounding Meghan’s nose isn’t new. Since her relationship with Prince Harry became serious, her facial features have been a topic of debate. Back in 2017, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen T. Greenberg noted a rise in patients requesting a nose similar to Meghan’s.
“She’s now one of the most requested celebrity noses I hear about,” he said. “For a while, the Kardashians were the most popular, but now Meghan is at the top.”
Dr. Greenberg explained that her nose is highly sought after due to its refined shape, featuring a straight profile and a well-defined tip—attributes that many patients find attractive and wish to emulate.
Another expert, Dr. Vartan Mardirossian, suggested that Meghan’s nose may have undergone subtle cosmetic refinements, possibly altering the tip to give it a slight upward lift. He pointed out that the straight portion near the tip appears “nicely refined.”
Plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew Miller also suggested that if Meghan had any work done, it was likely a minor adjustment to the tip, giving it a more sculpted and elevated appearance.
However, Dr. Adam Hamawy disagreed, stating that Meghan’s nose appears unchanged. He argued that any perceived differences could be due to “lighting, facial expressions, or makeup,” emphasizing that her natural beauty remains intact.
In the now-viral video, Meghan also spoke about her involvement in helping those affected by the California wildfires. Living in Montecito with Prince Harry and their children, she revealed that Billie Eilish had sent her a thoughtful gift—a signed vinyl record.
Meghan explained that she was inspired to reach out to Billie after meeting a young girl who had lost her concert T-shirt and other cherished belongings in the Eaton Fire. “I told her, ‘I don’t know Billie Eilish, but I’ll figure out how to get you this shirt,’” Meghan recalled.
Determined to fulfill her promise, she sent a voice note asking contacts if they could reach the singer. To her delight, the message found its way to Billie, who graciously signed and sent the special gift.
Earlier this year, Meghan and Harry visited wildfire victims at the Pasadena Convention Center. Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo praised the couple for their kindness, calling them “genuine and compassionate people.” He emphasized that their meeting with first responders and displaced families showed “a great deal of heart.”
The mayor also noted that Meghan and Harry’s visit brought joy to those they met. The couple spent time with affected families and toured fire-damaged areas in Pasadena and Altadena. “They truly care about their community and the people around them,” Mayor Gordo said.
Meghan and Harry have long been recognized for their philanthropic efforts, actively supporting various charities and initiatives aimed at making a positive impact on society.
