A woman who had $30,000 worth of surgery to look like Meghan Markle says it's helped her self-esteem

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.

And Michael Jackson kept trying to look like Diana Ross as he turned himself into a plastic freak...with parts rotting from lack of blood flow from all the cutting.

In a saner world, she would be referred to a psychologist for having a mental disorder. Unfortunately we no longer live in a sane world. Her mental illness is celebrated.

Fresher, younger, softer, more natural.

I hope they didn’t forget the rustproofing and sealant.

“Markle is ugly.”

More to the point, Markle is a dumbass...who wants to look like a dumbass?

If I had that woman’s features and coloring and was crazy enough to want to look like some famous person, I would have chosen Penelope Cruz or Queen Rania of Jordan.

All she really needed was a shave and a little makeup.

“Me too. Fresher, younger, softer, more natural.”

I read that post from last week today. And having forgotten the context, I initially thought you were saying you had had $30,000 worth of surgery to look like Meghan Markle too and were now looking fresher, younger, softer and more natural.
