Meghan Markle is not on deck to become a brand ambassador for Dior, despite reports to the contrary.A spokesperson for the iconic fashion house confirmed to WWD on Tuesday, June 20, that the Duchess of Sussex, 41, has not had any contract negotiations with the brand.
Calling the reports “unfounded,” the rep added that Dior hasn’t had any recent contact at all with the former actress.Rumors about the alleged deal began over the weekend when the Mail on Sunday reported that Meghan was “on the brink of signing a major deal” with Dior, which counts Jennifer Lawrence, Natalie Portman, Charlize Theron and Yara Shahidi among its brand ambassadors.While Meghan won’t be joining the ranks of Dior’s spokesmodels, she does have a long history with the brand and has been spotted in Dior designs many times over the years.
