Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra Jonas was seen attending the Wimbledon tournament recently. A clip of the actor is going viral on social media as she can be seen ignoring the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge as they were applauded into the Royal Box.
A clip of the royal couple's entrance at the Women's Singles Final on Saturday has gone super viral on social media after people noticed that Chopra-Jonas did not along with the rest of the spectators as the Prince William and Kate Middleton entered the Royal Box.?
In the video, the 38-year-old actress can be seen looking away to rearrange her scarf, followed by turning towards a friend as the couple walk past her.
According to commentators, Chopra-Jonas was intentionally ignoring William and Kate due to her long-time friendship with Meghan Markle.??
The actresses became friends in January 2016 when they met each other at an ELLE Women in Television dinner. According to an E! News report, the duchess had confessed in Priyanka about the 'adjustments' she'd had to make to royal life.?
Markle had exposed the Royal family during an interview with Oprah Winfrey by claiming that the monarchy did not support her during her struggle with mental illness and also accused her sister-in-law Kate of "hurting her feelings before her wedding to Prince Harry.?
Harry also mentioned that even though he loves his older brother, they were "on different paths".
It is also being discussed that maybe Priyanka was not aware of the etiquette in the Royal Box and her actions had no meaning. However, netizens refuse to believe this theory.?
However, that is not all - after the match, Priyanka headed to the Centre Court balcony for some drinks and as she walked over to her table, she came face to face with Prince William and Kate. It seems like the actress did not acknowledge the Royal couple even then and sat with her back towards them as they chatted with other guests.?
The former Miss World was a guest at Meghan's wedding.However, Meghan didn¡¯t attend her wedding to Jonas which was just a few months later while Priyanka was absent from the duchess¡¯s baby shower.
This sparked rumours of a feud but they were soon dismissed by Priyanka who said that they were simply "not true".?
