Meghan Markle seems to have cut ties with a number of people over the years, with one relationship expert suggesting she "outgrew" her former pals.

The Duchess of Sussex and her husband Prince Harry were once close to Victoria Beckham, but that's thought to have ended after they accused the singer of leaking stories to the press. Victoria's husband David Beckham was reportedly left "absolutely b****y furious" at the accusations.

They're said to have cut ties with Harry and Meghan immediately. And they're not the only people Meghan has distanced herself from over the years. She once seemed to be quite friendly with Piers Morgan and was reportedly close to Made in Chelsea star Millie Mackintosh. Relationship expert Kate Mansfield has suggested a few reasons for Meghan's change in friends.

Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, Kate said Meghan's time in the Royal Family could have created a change in values for the former actress. She added: "People who value growth and personal development often grow out of friends and connections over the years, as they change to the point that they no longer have much in common with old friends.

"This can be down to different values, lifestyle and interests - all of which profoundly and most certainly apply to Megan's journey into becoming a royal." Despite cutting some people out of her life, Meghan does seem to have formed a lot of close relationships over the years.

Recently, the Duchess of Sussex has grown close to Delfina Blauier, the wife of Harry's polo-playing pal Nacho Figueras. The two couples now hang out together and Delfina has even referred to Meghan as her sister.

Sharing a snap from one of their get-togethers on Instagram, she said: "M - looking forward to many more of these times with you and H. Getting to spend time together over these two months was so special. I wish everyone knew you the way you are.

"My sister, my now fellow 'pwife' (polo wife) -genius of you to come up with this. Can't wait to see you again soon, to share thrill, hikes, and just more chill time. You also have my respect.

"Keep walking, steady and strong. Listen to your heart, that will guide you well, because you have a big one and it's a beautiful one. I love you my darling."
