**Meghan Markle’s Jealousy Sparks Another Bid for Patron Role as Kate Middleton Shines at Wimbledon**

The US Open is abuzz with news that has once again reached out, this time demanding a patron role, all while steals the spotlight at Wimbledon.

It must be unsettling for Meghan to see her sister-in-law basking in the glory of being a patron of an organization that attracts a crowd she can only dream of mingling with.

Among the A-listers gracing the men's singles finals at Wimbledon were the likes of Jonathan Bailey, Lewis Capaldi, Daniel Craig and his wife Rachel Weiss, Andrew Garfield, Ariana Grande, Tom Hiddleston, Hugh Jackman, Lily James, Sir Ian McKellen, James Norton, Brad Pitt, Guy Ritchie, Stormzy, and Emma Watson.

Notably absent were sports stars Billie Jean King and the King of Spain.

The last time Meghan was in such proximity to such stars, she had to entice them with the allure of a royal wedding.

Ariana Grande even shared a video featuring Catherine at Wimbledon on Instagram, showcasing the star-studded event.

As Princess Catherine gracefully stepped onto the renowned grass of Wimbledon to present the trophies, she solidified her place as a symbol of the prestigious tennis tournament, akin to strawberries and cream.

This moment of adoration from the crowd only fueled Meghan's envy, leading her to once again pursue a patron role equivalent to Catherine's, this time reaching out to the US Open.

However, Meghan's hopes were dashed as she was reminded that the US Open does not appoint patrons, a fact she was informed of two years prior.

This recent attempt echoes a previous incident where Meghan contacted the US Open staff seeking a sponsorship role but requested a tip in return, showcasing a level of irony and audacity that surprised many.

During her brief stint as a royal, Meghan displayed a reluctance to adhere to royal duties and protocols, contrasting sharply with the conduct expected of a member of the royal family.

Desiring the title and status of the Princess of Wales without the accompanying responsibilities, Meghan's actions have raised eyebrows and drawn criticism.

While Meghan attempted to garner attention with Independence Day Hotel merchandise photos of and Lily, the focus remained on the star-studded Wimbledon event, which saw an unprecedented influx of Hollywood glamour.

From Brad Pitt casually snacking on crisps with Guy Ritchie to Daniel Craig and Rachel Weiss making a rare public appearance together in the royal box, the event was a spectacle of celebrity sightings.

As the young Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz triumphed over Novak Djokovic in a thrilling five-set match, a new era seemed to dawn not only for tennis but also for the sport's celebrity spectatorship.

The presence of well-known figures from the entertainment industry added to the allure of the event, with Hugh Jackman, a close friend of the seven-time Wimbledon champion, among the distinguished guests.

With the Princess of Wales embracing her role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, the event showcased a blend of sportsmanship and stardom, marking a memorable chapter in Wimbledon's history.
