Elton John, known for his sharp wit and unfiltered opinions, reportedly took a playful jab at Meghan Markle during his recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show. The legendary musician allegedly mocked the Duchess of Sussex over a rumored $500,000 request for new clothes, a claim that has already raised eyebrows across social media.
According to reports, Meghan had supposedly requested the staggering amount for a wardrobe upgrade to showcase on Instagram, sparking backlash over what critics call an extravagant and unnecessary demand. Elton, who has long been connected to the royal family, reportedly couldn’t resist addressing the controversy in his signature humorous style.
While details of the exchange remain speculative, the moment has ignited debate online, with some laughing along with Elton and others defending Meghan. Given the musician’s close ties to Prince Harry and his past public support for the couple, his remarks—if true—may suggest a shift in his stance.
Neither Meghan nor her representatives have commented on the alleged joke, and it remains unclear whether the clothing request was ever real or merely a rumor. Regardless, Elton’s reported quip has certainly added another layer to the ongoing conversation surrounding the Sussexes and their public image.
