In the time since announcing her engagement to Prince Harry in November 2017, Meghan Markle has become one of the most influential people in the world.
The so-called "Markle effect" has seen fashion brands such as Outland Denim and LINE experience a huge spike in sales, and she even landed a spot on TIME's 2018 Person of the Year list. Her influence has become so strong that people are now starting to get plastic surgery to replicate the "Markle sparkle."
Greer starting meeting with Houston-based surgeon Dr. Franklin Rose around the time of the royal wedding. She and Dr. Rose decided to focus on replicating Markle's most striking features; Markle's presence in the media helped inspire the look she wanted for the surgery.
"I think [Meghan Markle] is a gorgeous woman with beautiful features and I felt like a nose similar to hers would look great on me," Greer told INSIDER. "Meghan also has a gorgeous strong jawline so I wanted to try and make my jawline a little stronger as well."
During her consultation, which was documented by ABC News, Greer and Dr. Rose decided to proceed with liposuction, fat grafting, and rhinoplasty. She also had temporary fillers in her jawline to more closely replicate Markle's facial structure. ABC News reports that Greer had $30,000 worth of surgery, though she told INSIDER she received a discount (she did not disclose the amount) from Dr. Rose for her television appearance.

Ha Ha. I'm in the middle of making banana nut bread.
Doc did a good job, but the jaw ain’t right..............
Agree. She did not improve herself and some of these surgeries can go really bad.
OOPS!!<<<
These are the times I’m reminded what the great Bob Grant used to often say: “It’s sick out there, folks. And it’s getting sicker.”.
She wasted her money.
Doesn’t look like 30 grand quite got her there.
A trip to Merle Norman or Mary Kay would probably had the same type results. . .maybe better.
They made her look like Jedidiah Bila.
“They made her look like Jedidiah Bila.”
All’s well that ends well... :)
So now she looks like a verified dumb*ss and she has more self-esteem?
The paradox is that the surgery deception let the truth out.
Why do people do this stuff? They swap natural, decent looks for weird, fake "improvements". And then it's never good enough.
It's one way to keep the business model thriving, because it's always the next surgery that will look real for real this time.
Looks like just a nose job and some makeup.
Cheek implants too.
When the before shot has no makeup, flat lighting, and poker face expression who am I to judge?
She should have had the bat shit crazy removed from her eyes...
“$30,000 worth of surgery... says it’s helped her self-esteem”
I just go walk around Walmart and it’s free.
She paid $30k to put bags under her eyes?
