Ellen DeGeneres and Meghan Markle are having a hard time with their close bond.
People know that the Duchess of Sussex picks her friends and family very carefully, and Ellen’s recent problems may put their relationship to the test.
Since Meghan cares a lot about her image, she might need to think again about their relationship.
Meghan has to choose whether to stand by Ellen or put some space between them because her public image is at stake.
People do not know how Meghan will handle this complicated situation or what the future holds for their bond as the story continues.
The Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, is known for being selective about who she hangs out with, and it looks like her friendship with Ellen DeGeneres might be set to the testing.
The US talk show star Ellen DeGeneres has been in a lot of trouble lately, which could make Meghan pull away from her.
Meghan became friends with DeGeneres after she talked about her life in California with Prince Harry and their two kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, on her show in 2021.
But the latest incidents involving DeGeneres may have made their friendship harder. Her daily show ended in 2022 after claims of a “ toxic ” workplace came to light.
Since then, she has said she will be quitting show business after her upcoming Netflix special.
DeGeneres has been talking about leaving the public eye by saying that her show will be canceled because she is “ old, gay, and mean.”
That being said, Meghan might not find the situation funny. There is a history of the Duchess pulling away from people who get bad press, and it looks like DeGeneres may be the next one.
Meghan broke up with her close friend Jessica Mulroneyin 2020 after the Canadian stylist got into a fight after the Black Lives Matter protests.
DeGeneres lives in Montecito, and Meghan and Harry are friendly with her. They were even seen cheering at her vow renewals last year.
However, Meghan’s image is very important to her, and she may decide to stay away from DeGeneres to protect it.
Now on her “ Ellen’s Last Stand… Up”goodbye tour, DeGeneres has said she will not be famous again after her Netflix special.
Ellen DeGeneres and Meghan Markle became good friends in 2017.
They had met more than once, and Meghan had even been on Ellen’s talk show.
When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry moved to the US in 2020, they spent a lot of time with Ellen and her wife, Portia De Rossi.
Because they were such good friends , Ellen and Portia’s vow renewal wedding in 2023 called Harry and Meghan along with Kris Jenner and other famous people.
But Ellen’s image took a hit in 2022 when her talk show stopped because of claims that she was in charge of a “toxic workplace” on the set.
Over 36 workers came forward to say they were bullied and worked in a bad situation, which made Ellen suddenly end her show.
Even though Meghan was trying to fix her image, she was told to stay away from Ellen to protect her own.
Meghan and Harry are about to have a big year because their Netflix deal is ending and there are no new projects in the works.
In January, a person who is close to the Duchess of Sussex said that Meghan was told to “steer clear” of Ellen and stay away from any ties that could be bad for her and Harry’s public image.
The person also said that 2024 would “make or break” the couple and that they needed to work to boost their public image.
People say Meghan was mad as she was told her to stop being friends with Ellen, but she knew she had to put her image first.
Ellen had told about Meghan and Harry before that they were “real, kind people,” and she even gave them one of her rescued chickens.
However, Meghan’s team told her to stay away from Ellen to avoid any possible backlash.
In April, Ellen DeGeneres talked about the rough end to her talk show, which was harmed by claims of a bad work environment.
DeGeneres’ issue was provoked by a single tweet sent by comedian Kevin T. Porter in March 2020, asking people for the most ridiculous stories they’ve heard about Ellen being mean,’ which received 2,600 responses.
Ellen talked about the debate that led to the end of the show in 2022 in a comedy stand-up show.
She said that the accusations broke her heart and hurt her deeply. It was hard for her to deal with them because they were both personal and public.
BuzzFeed News first reported in July 2020 that there were claims of racism and bullying at work on the set of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
WarnerMedia started an internal probe because of the claims. Ellen then apologized to her staff and promised to fix the problems.
But the damage was already done, and the show’s image could never be fixed. Three executives from the show were fired in August 2020.
Their names were Ed Glavin, Kevin Leman, and Jonathan Norman. Ellen’s comedy show also talked about her marriage to Portia de Rossi, showing that the scandal had a big effect on their relationship.
She said that the reaction made her go through a “ hard” and “ funk” time where she found it hard to deal with things.
She did, however, tell fans that she and Portia are now “dancing again,” which seems to mean that they are over a hard time.
Right now we all need a little kindness. You know, like Ellen Degeneres always talks about! 😊❤️

Ellen also joked that she was not good at business because she “did not know how to be a boss” and had not been to business school.
She talked about how people saw her as a “ one-dimensional character” who was only known for dancing and giving gifts.
She did say, though, that the accusations made her see that she was more than just a happy TV host.
People were very angry about the problems with her show, and Ellen called herself “ the most hated person in America” at the time.
She remembered that there was “ hate for a long time” and that she tried not to watch the news during that time.
Ellen also talked about being canceled before, when her show Ellen was dropped after she came out as gay in the 1990s.
Finally, Ellen DeGeneres’ most recent stand-up show was a turning point in her career. In it, she talked about the problems that caused her talk show to end.
Even though she sometimes tried to play down the event, it was clear that it had a big effect on both her personal and business life.
