RadarOnline.com can reveal the Duchess of Sussex’s latest money-making scheme has turned heads in royal circles, after an Aussie podcaster revealed Meghan would be the star attraction at the “Girls’ Weekend” bash.
Why Has Meghan Been Compared To Ferguson?
Meghan will pose up for snaps as part of the $1,900 ticket price.MEGA
Tickets cost $1,900 and include the opportunity to have a photo taken with the ex-Suits star.
The revelation led one well-placed royal insider to liken her to the former Duchess of York. “She’s basically Fergie,” the source told to The Daily Mail.
Ferguson has built up a reputation as a “grifter” by exploiting her royal titles for financial gain.
And Meghan, 44, appears to be doing likewise and it hasn’t gone unnoticed in royal circles the type of events herself and Prince Harry, 41, are aligning themselves to a far cry from what he imagined he’d spend the rest of his life doing after quitting royal duties and burning bridges with his family.
How Did Meghan Get The Australia Gig?
A source said: “They (the firms concerned) are hardly FTSE100. I’m sure they (Harry and Meghan) didn’t think they’d face diminishing returns so soon.’
Meghan is understood to have reached out to the organiser, Her Best Life podcast host Gemma O’Neill, after being put in touch by a mutual friend.
The presenter revealed she had initial reservations and almost turned down Meghan’s offer, but concluded her podcast audience “deserved it.”
“I have admired (Meghan) and what she has endured… and how she has demonstrated how a woman can be pushed down and she can still rise,” she explained.
What Is Happening At The Event?

“Join us for an intimate luxury weekend by the ocean designed to bring women together for powerful conversations, relaxation, laughter and unforgettable experiences.

“Come by yourself, come with your best friend, or bring a whole group of your favourite women.”

A fourth chimed in: “Gotta pay that mortgage!”, while a fifth joked: “Those poor girls. They should probably bring earplugs, and be wary about eating anything.”
