NDTV
Priyanka Chopra and Meghan Markles friendship has been plagued by rumours of a rift
A day after Meghan Markle celebrated her 40th birthday by announcing her new '40X40' initiative, Priyanka Chopra has revealed that she is one of the 40 women that Ms Markle has recruited to mentor women looking to re-enter the workforce. "The Duchess of Sussex has asked 40 of her friends to take 40 minutes to support women getting back into the workforce...Of course I was more than happy to join. Now that's a great way to celebrate a milestone Birthday. Bravo, my friend," Priyanka Chopra wrote in a post she shared this morning; the operative word here is friend - Priyanka Chopra and Meghan Markle struck up a friendship which, according to several reports, veered off course a couple of years ago. While these are great gift ideas... this story is untrue, and I was actually in town for work. I hope whoever this "source" is starts checking their facts more often. https://t.co/S2sDlEiLaZ The '40x40' initiative, launched on the Archewell Foundation that Meghan Markle runs with her husband Harry, aims to help women who left the workforce last year - largely because of COVID - and are struggling to return. 40 prominent women have been asked to donate 40 minutes of mentorship to the cause - apart from Priyanka Chopra, singer Adele, activist Gloria Steinem, designer Stella McCartney and actress Tracee Ellis Ross are among these 40 women. "Happy birthday, Meghan. For her 40th birthday this year, in true Meg fashion, she's chosen to put the welfare of others first," Priyanka Chopra began her post for Meghan Markle before going on to explain what the '40X40' initiative aims to do.
