Elvira didn’t miss a beat, offering Meghan Markle a little beauty advice after the Duchess of Sussex opened up about her hair dye mishap.

Elvira playfully teased Meghan Markle online.
“Hey princess, if you ever need beauty advice from a queen just let me know 😏,” she wrote alongside a screenshot of the story.
The comment comes after Meghan shared the beauty blunder on the April 22 episode of her podcast, “Confessions of a Female Founder.”
She opened up about the moment she decided to touch up her hair herself — but it went way darker than expected.
“I thought, ‘I’m going to look just like she does on the box,’” Meghan recalled.

Meghan Markle was reportedly banned from Vogue’s cover in 2022.
The lighthearted moment comes as Meghan continues to make headlines.
According to sources, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour allegedly “banned” The Candidate alum from the magazine’s cover back in September 2022.
Insiders said the issue was supposed to coincide with Meghan's keynote speech at the One Young World Summit in Manchester that month — but things didn’t go as planned.
“The magazine coverage was designed to tie in with Meghan's keynote appearance... but Conde Nast insiders claim it was abruptly pulled and scrapped completely,” the source told a news outlet.
Sources said Meghan Markle's team had too many demands for the magazine feature, which 'frustrated' Anna Wintour.
Apparently, the problem came down to Meghan having too many demands.
“[Meghan] was difficult about making it a cover,” an insider revealed, claiming her team insisted on “particular straplines.”
“Anna heard about it, and just like banned her and said, ‘That’s it. We don’t want to do this,’” the source added. “So she didn’t get the cover, and I guess she didn’t even get the story. [Former British Vogue editor Edward Enninful] probably agreed with Anna that you don’t get to call the shots on who’s on the cover. That’s absolutely an editor’s decision. Anna was pissed off. Anna was like frustrated with all the micromanaging, and just was like, ‘All right. That’s it. She can’t have the cover and we’re not doing the story.’”
The insider also shared, “Markle’s level of desire for detail and control on the media is almost like Beyoncé level... but she’s not Beyoncé.”
Despite all the behind-the-scenes drama, the Remember Me actress herself was said to be calm about the situation.
“No expectations,” one source said. “But her team had high expectations for the piece.”
