Victoria Jackson 'secretly bankrolls' Harry and Meghan’s luxury lifestyle

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are quietly enjoying a luxury lifestyle through the generosity of American cosmetics mogul Victoria Jackson, it has emerged.

Jackson, 70, a billionaire entrepreneur known as the “Queen of Cosmetics,” has reportedly been providing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex access to her multimillion-dollar properties in New York, Beverly Hills and Montecito as well as lending them her private jet for travel.

MailOnline cited sources as saying Harry and Meghan frequently stay at Jackson’s imposing Upper East Side brownstone during work trips to New York.

The couple were believed to be staying there in 2023 during the widely disputed paparazzi “car chase.” The lavish home, complete with a glass elevator and gourmet kitchen, was recently spotlighted in Meghan’s Harper’s Bazaar interview.

The Sussexes are also said to use Jackson’s Beverly Hills mansion – a 14-bedroom estate once owned by Hollywood legend Buster Keaton – as well as her Montecito home, where Meghan celebrated her 41st birthday in 2021.

Jackson’s Montecito estate is reportedly a favourite of children Archie and Lilibet, who enjoy visiting the micropigs kept on the property.

A source claims Jackson’s properties offer the couple unparalleled security, comfort and, notably, zero cost. “They have been staying there for years… they don’t have to pay at all, which is also appealing,” the insider said.

Jackson, who is co-owner of the Montecito bookstore Godmothers, also supported Meghan’s recent As Ever pop-up event held at the venue on November 6. The Duchess was seen arranging her homemade produce and candles in the store’s event space.

Introduced to the Sussexes by feminist icon Gloria Steinem after “Megxit,” Jackson has become a close friend and mentor to the couple. In return, Meghan has discreetly supported Jackson’s ventures – even wearing her No Makeup Makeup products to the 2023 ESPY Awards.

Jackson’s life story is one of resilience, rising from childhood trauma to building a billion-dollar cosmetics empire. Beyond business, she has donated over $80 million to research for neuromyelitis optica, a rare autoimmune disease her daughter was diagnosed with in 2008.
