Meghan’s Kardashian connection! Her mother Doria Ragland poses with Kris Jenner and Kim at star-studded charity event that also hosted Amazon boss Jeff Bezos in LA… as The Duchess of Sussex prepares for million-dollar-a-post social media relaunch
Meghan Markle’s mom Doria Ragland teamed up with Hollywood’s most famous power mom Kris Jenner and her A-list daughter Kim Kardashian, as they caused a storm at a glitzy event last night.
The mother-of-one, grandmother of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, wore a vibrant, paisley dress in gorgeous shades of yellow, orange and pink to attend the fifth annual This Is About Humanity soiree in Los Angeles.
Meanwhile, SKIMS founder Kim, 42, debuted a new hairstyle, sporting bangs and a ponytail while dressing all in black, while ‘Momager’ Kris, 67, was chic in a white suit.
As the trio posed for the photos, they hugged and beamed, looking very pale at each other.
Doria’s appearance at the star-studded event comes amid reports that her daughter Meghan, 42, is planning a grand return to social media with a new Instagram account that could see her earn up to $1 million per post.

The Mail on Sunday reported that the Duchess of Sussex plans to relaunch herself on the social media platform, following the deactivation of the @sussexroyal handle in 2020 when the couple left Britain to start a new life across the street of the pond.
Adorned with an image of pink peonies, reportedly Meghan’s favorite flowers, a source close to her team confirmed this week: “Yes, she is. Expect an announcement very soon. She’s coming back.’
The story is already being followed by several of Meghan’s friends, including activist Mandana Dayani, who was president of Archewell, the Sussexes’ media and philanthropic company, until last December.

A source told The Mail on Sunday: “Everyone in Hollywood is talking about the relaunch being imminent. Meghan has never made it a secret that she wants to return to Instagram.”
Prior to her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018, Suits actress Meghan’s personal Instagram following number exceeded three million, while tens of thousands of fans signed up for her now-defunct lifestyle blog The Tig.
Meghan first revealed she was planning to return to Instagram in an interview with The Cut last year, in which she told writer Allison P. Davis, “Want a secret? I’ll be back on Instagram.’
The Duchess’s “new” account already has 76,000 followers and experts say it could be a huge boost to her finances.
Eric Schiffer, a social media expert who advises the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars, ex-Disney actress Bella Thorne and cast members of the American version of Dragons’ Den, said: “I don’t think the return of Meghan to Instagram will surprise everyone.
“She has a new talent manager and this is the next logical step.
“I expect she will quickly become one of the most followed accounts on Instagram. You have celebrities like the Kardashians who can earn $1 million (£790,000) or more from a single post promoting a product.
There’s no reason why Meghan couldn’t earn this kind of compensation.
“As the Duchess, she must be careful not to be seen as marketing every product under the sun. She will join quality brands and companies aligned with her political and social beliefs.”
