Has Gavin Newsom blocked Meghan Markle?

Is Gavin Newsom the latest big name to snub Meghan Markle and Prince Harry? Royal author and socialite Lady Colin Campbell claimed that the California governor has blocked Markle’s phone number in an attempt to distance himself, as her political demands continue to fall on deaf ears.

“Gavin Newsom has been harassed by Meghan to such an extent for her putting forward her idea that they should allow her to step into Dianne Feinstein’s shoes, which would incidentally give her access to the Intelligence Committee because that goes along with the seat, and Dianne Feinstein is a member of the Intelligence Committee,” she said on GB News Monday. “And he’s got so fed up with her persistence that he has given instruction that her calls are not to be received and not to be passed on to him. And he has personally blocked her from his mobile phone.” (For what it’s worth: the lady is mistaken in her assumption that Feinstein’s replacement in the Senate will automatically get her committee assignments — but as a senator Markle would be party to more classified information than your average American.)

Lady Colin also claimed that it was the Democrats who leaked the news about Joe Biden refusing to let Meghan Markle and Prince Harry hitch a ride on Air Force One following Queen Elizabeth’s funeral last year. She added that this “was a way for the party to distance” themselves from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

According to Lady C’s sources, Gavin Newsom had been helping Meghan navigate her new career motivations, but things have apparently reached a boiling point between the pair. 

It has been highly speculated that Meghan is aiming for a career in politics since stepping down from the British royal family in 2020. Earlier this year, eyebrows were raised when documents revealed that Meghan hired Michelle Obama’s ex-staffer, Katie McCormick Lelyveld, paying her $110,000 for “strategic support for social impact PR.”
