Meghan Markle has once again stirred royal controversy after appearing at Kris Jenner's glitzy 70th birthday bash in Beverly Hills on 8 November without wearing a Remembrance Day poppy. Sources told RadarOnline.com that the Duchess of Sussex's decision not to display the symbolic red flower — while Prince Harry did — was viewed as a deliberate snub aimed at both her husband and the royal family.

The 44-year-old joined Harry, 41, at Jenner's James Bond–themed celebration wearing a sleek black gown with a thigh-high slit. In contrast, Harry was photographed in a sharp tuxedo with a bright red poppy pinned to his lapel — a symbol that has long represented respect for fallen servicemen and women.
