Rumors linking Meghan Markle and Prince Andrew have exploded online, fueled by “yacht girl” photos, Fergie claims, and Epstein whispers. With #YachtGate trending, let’s separate fact from fiction responsibly—no judgments, just verified info to cut through the noise.

The Core Rumor: Yacht Photos and Social Ties
What’s Circulating: Grainy images purport to show Meghan on luxury yachts with Andrew around 2014-2016, labeled “yacht girl” escapades. Clips aired on Piers Morgan Uncensored and SNL (Colin Jost bit) claim elite networking or worse.
Fact Check: The photos are real but unverified as Meghan—some match her timeline/jewelry from Suits era, others are misattributed stock or lookalikes. Geo.tv debunked many as false in 2025, resurfacing from 2019 tabloids amid hate campaigns. No credible source confirms Meghan attended Andrew’s yachts; Latestly fact-check ruled them manipulated.
Known Fact: Meghan and Andrew crossed paths at elite events pre-Harry (e.g., polo, dinners), per public records. No affair or Epstein link proven.
Fergie, Bower, and Maxwell Claims
What’s Circulating: Sarah Ferguson “exposed” yacht days; Tom Bower cited “receipts” of shared trips; Ghislaine Maxwell alleged “adult games.”
