EXCLUSIVE: Meghan Markle turned 42 this month, but senior members of the Royal Family did not wish the duchess happy birthday as it would have looked 'disingenuous and insincere'
Meghan Markle celebrated her birthday this month but wishes from the Royal Family were noticeably absent through fear of being "fake", according to a royal expert.
"Wishing a happy birthday to The Duchess of Sussex!” wrote the Kensington Royal Twitter account for Prince William in honour of Meghan's 41st birthday.Historian, writer and broadcaster, Tessa Dunlop spoke exclusively to OK! and said it would have looked "fake" if the Royal Family had shared a birthday message for Meghan on social media.
"It was a reminder that actually, it tips into new ground compared to last August, yeah we've had Oprah but we've also had a pretty successful Platinum Jubilee, the Sussex's attended, they modestly made an appearance and didn't do anything distracting or what would seem to be in any way to upstage the Queen so it all went quite well.
Tessa went on to say that if they had posted something for Meghan's birthday she wouldn't "know what photo they would use".
