Trudeau and Sophie Split: Meghan Markle’s Podcast Blamed
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife Sophie have announced their separation, sending shockwaves through the public.
Speculations are rife that Sophie was somehow jinxed after her appearance on Meghan Markle's Spotify podcast, where she discussed breaking away from traditional feminine domestic roles.
Referred to as “Soph” on Markle's Failed Archetypes podcast titled Good Wife, Bad Wife, Good Mom, Bad Mom in November 2022, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau shared her thoughts on the desire for women to be free in who they are, especially considering the heavy responsibilities they bear within the household and with their children.
During the podcast, Meghan Markle described Sophie as a dear friend and a symbol of strength in embracing humanity amidst various pressures.
Sophie, who has been married to Justin for 18 years, juggled parenting, spousal duties, and public scrutiny with grace.
However, some royal fans believe that the conversation with Meghan somehow led to the breakdown of the Trudeau's marriage, as the couple had previously appeared to have a strong relationship before suddenly announcing their separation.
In an Instagram post, Trudeau revealed the decision to separate, emphasizing that despite this, they remain a close-knit family with deep love and respect for each other.
The couple, who share three children, have been together since 2005.
Sophie, who was childhood friends with Trudeau's late brother, Michael, began dating Justin in 2003 and got engaged shortly after reconnecting as adults.
The news of the split has sparked speculation and gossip, with some questioning whether Meghan Markle will now pursue Justin Trudeau following his separation from Sophie.
Memes featuring Meghan and Trudeau have circulated online, hinting at a potential connection between the two.
According to reports, Meghan had become friendly with Sophie in 2016 and had previously met Justin at the One Young World Summit in Ottawa.
The pair quickly developed a friendship, with Meghan admiring Sophie's transition from a television correspondent to a respected first lady alongside her husband.
In light of the split, rumors resurfaced about a possible cryptic Twitter clue from Trudeau regarding Meghan and Harry's departure from the royal family back in January 2020.
Diplomatic sources claim that Trudeau and Sophie were consulted about the royal family's decision before it was made public, indicating a close relationship between the Canadian Prime Minister and the royal couple.
The unfolding drama surrounding the Trudeau's separation continues to captivate public attention, leaving many wondering about the future paths of those involved.
