Meghan Markle shared details about her hair dye mishap during the Pandemic, in the April 22 episode of her Confessions of a Female Founder with Meghan podcast. The episode had businesswoman and hair colorist Kadi Lee as the guest.
While sharing how the two met through Markle's hairstylist, Serge Normant, the Duchess of Sussex stated that she kept buying boxed hair dye during the Pandemic. However, her hair turned deep, inky black and appeared "Elvira-esque", according to her. Then Serge introduced her to Kadi Lee, who fixed her hair.
"Because it was the pandemic, I kept ordering boxed hair dye. And I thought, 'I'm gonna look just like she does on the box.' Instead, it was this very inky, almost Elvira-esque black hair, and I texted Serge, and he said, 'You need to see Kadi.' And you came over. I mean, we were masked and all the things. It was such an interesting time, but I remember that day so well," Meghan Markle said.

Meghan Markle shared that she faced difficulty wearing stilettos during her late pregnancy
Meghan Markle interviewed Spanx founder, Sara Blakely, in the May 27 episode of her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder. While talking about Blakely's decision to enter the stilettos market with her new brand Sneex, the Duchess of Sussex spoke about her experience with high heels. The 43-year-old revealed that during her two pregnancies, she gained 65 pounds and had difficulty walking in high heels.
"I gained 65 pounds with both pregnancies, and you're in these five-inch pointy-toed stilettos. You have the most enormous bump, and your tiny little ankles are bracing themselves in these high heels, but all of my weight was in the front, so you're just going, how on earth am I not just tipping, you know, faceplanting," Meghan Markle said.
Meghan shared that she was holding onto her husband the whole time she was wearing them, hoping he wouldn't let her fall.
"I was clinging very closely to my husband; I was like, please don't let me fall," Markle said.
Sara Blakely launched her brand Sneex in August 2024. In a press release, she stated that she aimed to combine stilettos with sneakers to create a shoe that combines the look of a heel with the comfort of a sneaker.
"Consumers are dressing much more casually now. While sneakers have been embraced as an option, there are many times I put on clothes and still want the height and look of a heel with the vibe of a sneaker. There was an opportunity there," Blakely stated.
Meghan Markle's podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, is available for streaming on Spotify, YouTube, and Apple Podcasts.
