Meghan Markle has been seen for the first time since the royal "racism" storm, looking radiant as she took a walk in Santa Barbara.
A Joyful Sight
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, had a smile from ear to ear as she stepped out for some exercise near her and Prince Harry's home.
A Meaningful Jewelry Choice
Meghan was sporting family heirlooms along with her gym gear and baseball cap. She wore a Bentley & Skinner tennis bracelet, featuring ninety-two round brilliant-cut diamonds, which was thought to be a gift from King Charles. The Duchess was first seen wearing it on the eve of her wedding in 2018. Meghan was also pictured wearing a watch that once belonged to Princess Diana.
Divided Opinions
The reason behind Meghan's choice of jewelry has divided opinion. Some say it's a sweet nod or a peace offering, while others believe it's a sign of victory. Royal expert Angela Levin stated that she believed Meghan chose the jewelry to "show she'd won."

Controversial Claims
The storm erupted after Omid Scobie's bombshell book, Endgame, claimed that there were two royals accused of being racist. This came after Meghan and Harry's interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, where they alleged that an unnamed member of the Royal Family spoke about their son's skin color. Last week, the Dutch translation of Endgame included the names of Princess Kate and King Charles, causing further controversy.
Changing Narratives
The story surrounding the discussion about Archie's skin color has appeared to change multiple times. No evidence has been produced, and Harry subsequently stated that there was no allegation of "racism." Instead, the focus has shifted to "unconscious bias" within the Royal Family.
