And therein lies the yawning tension here, between their philanthropic aims and projects and the lifestyle that the Sussexes seems to have no issue putting on very clear display. For example, in 2019, Meghan was photographed for
Vogue at Smart Works, the London charity which helps unemployed women get back into the workforce and of which she is the patron - wearing a $2900 Gucci dress. In March, when Meghan and Harry sat down with Oprah Winfrey to enumerate their many grievances against the royal family and the palace, the Duchess wore a $6000 Giorgio Armani frock and $890 heels, an interesting choice given one of their key gripes was that Prince Charles had cut them off financially. Clearly things aren t too tight for the self-exiled duo then.
