Although tabloids often ink what is abundant in their lives—controversies and criticism—Markle's close friend, Tyler Perry, brought a change of pace to the narrative at the Paley Honors Gala. Amidst concerning updates of fleeting bliss, Perry arrived with a rare insight into the lives of Sussexes. 

While the Duke already had the swipes ready for the rumor mills, Perry shut them in quite the style by providing an intimate glimpse into their family life.
