After fueling speculation about possible cosmetic enhancements to her nose, the Duchess of Sussex is once again the subject of public debate—this time over her appearance at the Invictus Games.
On February 10, 2025, Meghan Markle attended this year’s event in Whistler, British Columbia, alongside her husband, Prince Harry. However, rather than focusing on the Duke of Sussex, social media users were far more intrigued by Meghan, with many convinced she may have undergone a cosmetic procedure.
Meghan exuded warmth and elegance in a chic yet comfortable winter outfit. She wrapped herself in a crisp white puffer jacket, featuring the letter “M” on the sleeve, paired with a sleek black beanie that perfectly framed her face, emphasizing her natural glow.
Her lips, coated with a subtle pink gloss, complemented her signature warm and inviting smile. In one of the circulating photos, she is captured sharing a tender moment with Prince Harry, gazing at him with affection. Her bright, expressive eyes conveyed a deep sense of warmth and connection.
As soon as photos of Meghan Markle surfaced, netizens wasted no time diving into the comment sections to share their thoughts on her appearance—many speculating that she may have had cosmetic alterations.
The discussion quickly escalated, with one commenter calling Meghan’s freckles and nose “fake.” Another X user chimed in with a skeptical remark: “Someone ‘overheard’ Meghan saying, ‘A face without freckles is a night without stars’? Oh, please, this is planted and paid for by Meghan herself. Did she mention to the boy about her multiple nose jobs too? […]”
To drive their point home, the user included a GIF of Seinfeld actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, in character as Elaine Benes, repeatedly saying the word “fake.”
Drawing a contrast between Prince Harry’s apparent intentions and those of his wife, one Instagram user remarked, “Girl is looking wrinkling lately. He’s there with a purpose she’s there for a fashion show [sic].”
However, not everyone shared that perspective. Some social media users showered Meghan and Prince Harry with praise.
“They both look great!” one admirer enthused, while another directed their compliment solely at Meghan and the photographer behind the snapshots, exclaiming, “Meghan is just beautiful! Love your photos as always!!”
The intense scrutiny over Meghan’s appearance at the Invictus Games comes on the heels of similar discussions earlier this month (February) regarding her nose.
When the Duchess of Sussex appeared in a short clip—seemingly without makeup—expressing gratitude to Billie Eilish for supporting a special cause, online users quickly speculated about changes to her facial features.
As the video circulated on social media, speculation about Meghan’s appearance quickly took center stage. “Make up free but full of fillers… had a nose job… botoxed [sic],” one person alleged.
Some questioned whether her look had changed recently, with one comment reading, “Did she have a nose job? Looks like Michael Jackson’s.”
The discussion wasn’t limited to just her nose. One user asked, “When did she get the lip fillers??” while another bluntly stated, “Total facial remodel gone [sic] on there.”
However, not everyone was critical. A fan gushed, “Meghan looks so beautiful, youthful, fresh, and clean. My Princess.” Another admirer added, “She literally looks so young and youthful. She has natural beauty without makeup, but is also a total stunner with makeup!!!”
Meghan’s nose has been a subject of fascination ever since her romance with Prince Harry became serious. Back in 2017, New York-based plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen T. Greenberg, MD, revealed that he had seen a noticeable rise in patients requesting a nose similar to Meghan’s.
Some experts and social media users have speculated that her nose might not be entirely natural. Dr. Vartan Mardirossian suggested that Meghan may have undergone subtle cosmetic enhancements to slightly lift the tip.
He also pointed out that the smooth, refined area near the tip could be the result of expert surgical work.
