When Jennifer Garner stepped out to receive her Hollywood Walk of Fame star on Monday, August 20, she left everyone in awe. Her stunning optical illusion updo was the talk of the town, but it wasn’t just her hair that caught attention. Fans couldn’t help but notice how grown-up her three children looked by her side. However, eagle-eyed royal watchers later realized something else special about Jen's look: she was wearing the same dress as Meghan Markle!
A Stylish Coincidence: Jennifer Garner and Meghan Markle Share a Dress
For her big moment, Jennifer, at the ripe age of 46, chose the navy blue Roland Mouret Barwick Dress, which retails for a cool $2,100. It’s a look that screams elegance and timeless style. Interestingly, Meghan Markle, 37, had previously worn the exact same garment on the eve of her royal wedding to Prince Harry back on May 19. Meghan was photographed arriving at Windsor, England's Cliveden House Hotel with her mom, Doria Ragland, sporting this very dress. It’s a small world, isn’t it?

Jennifer's Shoutout to Meghan and Harry
It’s not the first time Jennifer has shown her royal love for Meghan and Harry. Before the royal wedding, Jennifer took to social media to give the couple a cute shoutout. She posted a sweet throwback photo of herself and Mark Ruffalo filming their 2004 rom-com 13 Going on 30. The caption read, “Harry and Meghan, if you're looking for stand-ins, @MarkRuffalo and I are just hangin’ around. #13GoingOn30 #SoYoungSaturday #CongratulationsHarryAndMeghan.” It’s always great to see celebrities supporting each other, even across the pond.

Remembering Alias: A Defining Role
Jennifer also took a moment to reflect on her iconic role as Sydney Bristow in Alias. “Playing Sydney Bristow defined me for so long, and it re-defined me to myself,” she shared. She explained how the role made her stronger and more confident, even changing the tone of her voice. “Talk about language — I literally had to learn different languages,” she joked. It’s clear that this role left a lasting impact on her career and personal growth.
Family Support: The Backbone of Jennifer Garner's Success
Born in Texas and raised in West Virginia, Jennifer thanked her family for their unwavering support throughout her career. “My family is not a Hollywood-y family. My little sister is an accountant. My older sister’s in marketing. They have always been unabashedly proud and happy for me, but my job is not the focal point of our family,” she said. It’s heartwarming to see that Jennifer values her family’s love and support more than anything else. Congratulations again on your star, Jen!
