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.

I wonder if she got her hoohah made looser to match the casting couch skeezer...
She looked better before. Just really wanted some attention. Pathetic.
She didn’t get a very good job for her money. She should have gone to the same plastic surgeon that Meghan used.
“No, no, no! Doctor, I clearly said MARKLE, not MERKEL!”
Fail
At least she can make the money back doing celebrity impersonations. For the record, I don’t think Markle is all that attractive.
Excellent point
To be fair, Harry ain't exactly a male model either. If he wasn't a prince (i.e., powerful and loaded), he'd be lucky to get her.
She lost me with her racoon eyes.
She looked more like Markle before than after. Still, no plastic surgery can alter her protruding eyes to make them deep-set (I don’t think. But plastic surgery has come a long way, as in Kylie Jenner’s transformation. That was a lot of work!).
$30k for what? In the before and after, she looks exactly the same but with more makeup.
In 99% of cases like this you are right.
Eyes that scream Lazmataz I need you
****
Frivolous Ping.
Comments are too funny, esp #23.
If she wants to go back to looking like her before-self, only thirty thousand poorer, she can start by removing the raccoon eye make-up.
And the whole planet has to be sick of the sight of Meaghan, she’s totally overexposed.
I'm male. Greer's "before" pic looks just fine to me. She looks real and approachable. In her "after" pic she looks phony and possibly crazy.
If she is willing to spend many thousands of dollars to do that to herself, what will she do to her babies?
She looked pretty good before. Why is it that the more attractive a woman is, the crazier they are? I know this to be true. I’ve been married to a beautiful woman for 30 years.
Those eyes make her look like she is somewhere above the line in the hot vs crazy matrix...
Or to you. (Think ice pick in the side of the neck while in bed for not returning texts in a timely fashion...)
