Meghan Markle’s social media return makes her ‘more relatable’ than Kate Middleton: royal expert
Meghan Markle’s rumored return to social media could eventually make her more “relatable” than Princess Kate Middleton, according to one royal expert.
Last month, Page Six exclusively reported that The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is allegedly plotting a return to Instagram, and has a handle called @meghan on the social media platform.
“With Kate’s social media presence, we’re given very choreographed glimpses into her perfect, almost ‘too good to be true’ family,” royal expert Tessa Dunlop told OK! UK, per The Daily Record.
“With Meghan, on the other hand, we know that she’s been through hell and back,” she continued. “She doesn’t have the insulation of the institution and a large family.”
Dunlop continued, explaining that if Markle’s new Instagram account is authentic to her true personality, it could be a great success.
“She’s every woman,” Dunlop said. “She doesn’t feel too out of touch, or far removed from a normal woman.”
Dunlop also noted that Markle will be “making her own way,” as she did before she married Prince Harry, 38, in 2018.
The Post has reached out to Meghan’s reps to confirm if she’s returning to social media.
The 42-year-old’s alleged Instagram page, which doesn’t have any posts as of yet, has 125,000 followers. The current icon features a beautiful array of pink flowers.
According to Page Six, the Duchess of Sussex created the account just before she launched her now defunct Spotify podcast in August 2022, and has allegedly already been in touch with a number of brands to work with.
“Meghan was set to go live on Instagram, but changed her mind shortly before she launched her ‘Archetypes’ podcast, so it’s just sitting there now,” a source claimed.
The former “Suits” star even mentioned a return to social media during her cover story interview with New York Magazine’s The Cut last August 2022.
“Do you want to know a secret?” she asked the interviewer in a whisper.
“I’m getting back … on Instagram,” Markle continued.
While it still remains unclear when Markle will be making a comeback, her month already seems to be off to a fun start.
On Monday, Markle was spotted at Beyoncé’s third Renaissance World Tour stop in Los Angeles.
The 42-year-old was spotted snapping pics with Hollywood hotshots Kelly Rowland, 42, and Kerry Washington, 46.
She wore a black, high-neck tank top and a shiny, silver skirt.
