It has now come to light that the previously amicable relationship between the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, and former British Vogue editor-in-chief Edward Enninful, reportedly described as being based on shared values and mutual interests — including a noted fondness for mint tea — experienced a significant deterioration arising from creative disagreements related to the editorial direction of the magazine’s September 2019 issue.
According to informed sources, the Duchess had originally been invited to appear on the cover of Vogue but declined, opting instead to guest-edit the edition entitled Forces for Change, which showcased a curated selection of women deemed to be changemakers. However, it is understood that tensions subsequently emerged regarding editorial decisions, specifically in relation to cover imagery and thematic content, resulting in a rupture in the professional and personal rapport between the two parties.
While neither party has issued an official statement addressing the alleged fallout, individuals close to the matter have confirmed that communication between the Duchess and Enninful diminished significantly following the publication of the issue.#newsafro_
