Instead of receiving praise for supporting sick children, Meghan Markle faced backlash online for her outfit at a children’s charity gala.
While Prince Harry was in South Africa, Meghan made a surprise appearance at the 2024 Children’s Hospital Los Angeles (CHLA) Gala, a fundraising event for pediatric patients.
She praised CHLA as “the best place in the world” for kids needing care and attended with her friend Kelly McKee Zafjen.
However, the public focused more on Meghan’s red Carolina Herrera gown—previously worn at another event—criticizing it as too revealing for the occasion.
Some accused her of seeking attention, while others defended her, calling her a natural beauty and commending her dedication to the cause.
Despite the criticism, Meghan’s commitment to supporting children’s health remains evident.
