Drama exploded at Kris Jenner’s star-studded 70th birthday party as the hostess allegedly kicked out Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid a shocking fallout over their so-called “fake poppies & tan” stunt—a ploy widely viewed as a desperate attempt for PR that didn’t sit well with the Hollywood matriarch.
Sources reveal that tensions reached a breaking point when Harry showed up wearing a conspicuously bright red poppy pin—an emblem traditionally worn to honor fallen soldiers on Remembrance Day—sparking whispers that the gesture was more for show than genuine respect. Meghan faced an equally harsh backlash for her noticeably overdone fake tan, which guests and media insiders dubbed the “Tanning Queen move,” accusing her of prioritizing appearance over authenticity.
The couple was reportedly confronted by Kris Jenner in a private moment, where the party mogul expressed her fierce displeasure with the Sussexes’ alleged attempt to hijack the event for sympathy and publicity. Eyewitnesses say she told them bluntly: “This isn’t your stage, and your PR games are ruining my celebration!”
In a dramatic turn, Harry and Meghan were asked to leave the party early, clearing the way for other A-listers like Adele and Serena Williams to take the spotlight in a more genuine and respectful atmosphere.
The fallout doesn’t end there. Social media erupted with viral memes and scathing commentary, dubbing the incident “PoppyGate” and flooding platforms with #FakePoppies and #TanGate hashtags. Many fans accused the Sussex duo of disrespecting British traditions and using solemn occasions like Remembrance Day for self-promotion.
Royal commentators suggest this public snub marks yet another low point in Harry and Meghan’s ongoing struggle to blend royal duties with celebrity culture—often alienating longtime allies and fueling their reputation as attention-seekers.
Despite the backlash, insiders say the Sussex camp is downplaying the drama, labeling Kris Jenner’s reaction as “an unfortunate misunderstanding” blown out of proportion by the media.
As the saga unfolds, all eyes are on how the couple will recover from this latest PR disaster and whether their Hollywood dreams can survive such spectacular public embarrassment.
Stay tuned for exclusive updates on this party scandal and what it means for the Sussexes’ future in celebrity and royalty.
