The Duchess of Sussex, who has lately been spotted at some posh dining places and meeting people, received a disappointing response from an old friend.

Although, after the snub from the Beckhams, Meghan was hoping to reconnect with the Clooneys as she is hoping to emerge as a humanitarian in this new era.

According to sources cited by Rob Shuter, Meghan was hoping to meet with human rights lawyer Amal Clooney and it would have been a “dream photograph” to have if the two had met.

“Meghan couldn’t arrange tea with Amal, so Malala became the next best thing.”

Meghan and Malala Yousafzai were seen at Claridge’s and sources insist that this was a “deliberate” move by the As Ever founder.

She is hoping to have her “Diana moment” hence she is looking for people to put attention on her charitable work now.
