Both women have previously discussed supporting causes that matter to them, and Meghan Markle has a close friendship with cosmetics businessman Victoria Jackson.
A generous make-up tycoon has reportedly been lending Meghan Markle and Prince Harry her luxury mansions — that make their home “look like a prison”.
Meghan Markle has had a close friendship with Victoria Jackson, an entrepreneur in the cosmetics sector, for years and has gushed about the 70-year-old woman in previous media interviews. In one, she called Victoria her “safe harbour,” a phrase with huge significance now following Meghan’s links with the woman.
The Duchess of Sussex felt “at home” in the entrepreneur’s properties after her 41st birthday at Victoria’s ranch near Santa Barbara, California. According to a source, “Victoria’s homes make their place in Montecito look like a prison or a beach shack.” They are attracted to the security, the homes are incredible, and they don’t have to pay anything, which is appealing.
Meghan and Victoria’s connection has come to light after the Duchess of Sussex has spent 2025 desperately trying to rebrand, following the end of her and Harry’s Netflix deal. However, she is yet to strike gold and questions remain about how the couple are to continue their affluent lifestyle — without a return to Royal Family.

According to legend, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex frequently make use of Buster Keaton’s 14-bedroom Beverly mansion as a base. It is a far cry from Meghan and Harry’s Montecito home, which has a 50-foot living room, a 60-foot pool, a staff quarters, and an olive-lined driveway.
Instead of owning her own home in the same town, Victoria also owns a mansion in Montecito, reportedly where Meghan had a birthday party. It is believed that Meghan, who met Victoria through mutual friends, has supported the make-up tycoon’s business endeavors.
The Daily Mail today reports on the friendship, and how this has developed over the years. Alison Boshoff, editor at large at the publication, wrote: “In an interview in 2021, Meghan referred to Jackson as her ‘safe harbour’ – and now we know what she meant.”
Yet, the editor makes no further comment about the term. Meghan used the phrase in 2021 during a time when she and Harry had faced scrutiny for various interviews to the media, notably including the lengthy chats with Oprah Winfrey. The couple sat down with Oprah for a tell-all interview about their split from the Royal Family.
