Meghan Markle is planning a comeback to Hollywood because she “likes being famous” according to a well placed insider.
There have been various reports of a planned change in direction for the Duchess of Sussex, who has been said to be working on individual projects and a commercial venture in the public eye once again. There have been more pictures popping up of the former Suits actress appearing in selfies with pals and being snapped making her way about her Montecito neighbourhood in California over the past few weeks than ever.
Now Page Six is reporting she’s been spending the summer months planning a “phoenix-like rise from the ashes” after a “brutal” few months for her and husband Prince Harry.
According to a source who has “knowledge from their time with Spotify”, Meghan is now well and truly ready to ditch any calls for privacy from the media and wants to throw herself head first into developing more projects to boost her popularity, while Harry is slightly different.
The source told Page 6: “Harry has made it clear that he never wanted to be in the media…he would be very happy to go away. I think he’d like to go and live in Botswana – as long as he had money.
“Meghan actually likes being famous.”
The couple’s “brutal” few months started with the car-chase across New York which they said was a high-speed race through Manhattan which put their lives in danger, but was questioned by a police statement which seemed to dispute their dramatic claims.
Then came Spotify’s shock axe of their multi-million deal and the end of Meghan’s Archetypes podcast after just one series. And then came an onslaught from industry high-flyers including Spotify executive Bill Simmons, who called them “f**** grifters”, as well as United Talent Agency CEO Jeremy Zimmer, who said of the cancellation: “Turns out Meghan Markle was not a great audio talent, or necessarily any kind of talent.” However it was later claimed by sources that UTA had been pursuing Markle.
But, as Page Six reports, there’s a new direction seemingly coming from Meghan as she plans her next move. Her Instagram account @Meghan has 72,000 followers and climbing and the recent addition of Suits has broken viewing records for Netflix – a feat that wasn’t achieved by Harry&Meghan the documentary.
A source told Page Six: “Meghan’s not seeking out opportunities to be photographed, but she’s realised she has to live her life, none of the cameras are going away.”
As well as being snapped shopping at a farmers market in Montecito, Meghan has been reported to have gone to see Barbie at the cinema with celeb pals including neighbour Portia De Rossi, enjoyed a Taylor Swift concert, several dinners that have been caught on camera by fans, and was featured in a casual selfie with friends, poet Cleo Wade and hair stylist Kadi Lee, in the past few weeks.
And this all comes as she’s reportedly finishing up her “new project” after signing with Hollywood powerbroker Ari Emmanuel – rumoured to be a revamp of ‘The Tig’ – Meghan’s now defunct lifestyle blog which she shut down after meeting Prince Harry – to rival Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop or even a production company.
“Meghan and the team are working hard,” another insider told Page Six. “I think it will be surprising, it won’t be what everybody is expecting it to be, it will feel familiar to who Meghan is.”
