She is the Duchess of Sussex’s best friend and mentor, who was asked to be a bridesmaid at the royal wedding, but it was said that Jessica Mulroney had been away from Meghan since she was involved in a shameful row of races.
The absence of social media comments about the Duchess of Canadian stylist Jessica, daughter-in-law of former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney, sparked a series of reports that had fallen.
However, a mutual friend tells me that they are still close friends.

“Meghan is in regular contact with Jessica,” the source says.
“Now it’s hard for them to be in California and Jessica in Toronto.”
Mulroney will just say, “Just because it hasn’t happened on Instagram doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened.”

The smart set talks about … Lady Tasha’s quick engagement
Lady Natasha Howard was once discussed as a possible girlfriend of Prince Harry after seeing her dance the night away with him at the Womad Music Festival on her family’s estate, but I feel like she’s met a party much more sensible.
And while Harry has yet to meet his father-in-law after five years, Tasha’s father has quickly taken on his fiancé, Charlie Quick.
“The Countess and I are delighted,” the Earl of Suffolk tells me. “He’s a very nice man and we’ve been waiting for that commitment to happen.”
Lady Natasha Howard, 33, was once discussed as a possible bride for Prince Harry to find a much more sensible match with her fiancé, Charlie Quick
Willowy Lady Natasha, 33, who works for a modern London spa, is expected to exchange vows with financier Charlie on her 4,500-acre estate, Charlton Park, Wiltshire.
The count says, “I’m sure it will take place here.”
She “married” a rock six years ago and now Tracey Emin “christens” her pets.
The Turner Award-winning artist has acquired two moggies, which he has named King Pancake Ramses IV and Nefertiti Teacup III.
He held the “baptism” ceremony outside his studio in Margate, Kent. “I’m very happy,” says Emin, who also gave them godparents.
(Very) modern ways
TV chef Clodagh McKenna has taken a drastic step to prove she’s not an evil stepmother – she’s taken her son’s children with her honeymoon.
Clodagh, 46, who married the queen’s godson, Harry Herbert, 62, a fortnight ago, invited his children from his first wife, Chica, to join them in Ibiza.
Model Frankie Herbert, 25, musician Will, 21, and equestrian Chloe, 27, are staying with them in the same town on the Spanish island. “Clodagh wanted it to be a familiar honeymoon,” they tell me.
Former Chancellor George Osborne and his new baby were one of the guests at the couple’s wedding, held at Highclere Castle, owned by Herbert’s brother, Earl of Carnarvon, and where Downton Abbey is filmed.
A new friend sweeps Nancy off her feet

Nancy Dell’Olio, known for her tumultuous romances with former English director Sven-Goran Eriksson and theater director Sir Trevor Nunn, has now found love in her native Italy.
I hear that the former Strictly star is enjoying intimate dances with Italian businessman Beppe de Leo in Puglia, whose region she is an ambassador for. “I have a lot of fun,” is all she will tell me. “This is the best time of my life.”
Things will soon become even more lively: his friend Sarah, Duchess of York, will be accompanied to Puglia.
