When will Meghan Markle stop construct the monarchy? From jam jars to sharing her bizarre lifestyle tips on Netflix, Meghan, 43, is now getting money from her appearence – and for me, this is an important step for the Duchess of Sussex.
On Monday, Meghan uploaded post on social media and announced on Instagram that she would now be linking items on the platform, which her followers can buy.
The wife of Prince Harry wrote: “Many of you have asked, so here you go! A little shopping to start the week. More to come. Link in bio.” The website put a disclaimer that Meghan may earn commission through purchases – and an expert has suggested her earnings could be in the millions.
The former Suits actress clearly notices her power and influence, which has been widely noted as the ‘Meghan effect’. Whenever she attracted attention because of one thing, loyal fans rush to buy it. Meghan is clever because when she feels her popularity may be slipping or needs a PR boost, she will use her royal links.
The Duchess of Sussex wore an outfit almost identical to one owned by Princess Diana. She was charged with using her late mother-in-law as a promotional prop – as the snap was shared just days before the release of her brand new Netflix series, With Love, Meghan.
This makes me have question whether she should be earning a direct commission when she is no longer a working royal but is cashing in on her title.
Whether you love or hate her – you cannot reject that she has exquisite taste in her fashion sense.
We have seen her rock-stunning designer ensembles from Oscar Del Le Rent and Carolina Herrera ballgowns to laid-back looks from high-street retailers like Zara. Meghan supports the latest trends and often gives cheeky nods to her husband’s family by selecting clothing items with royal references. I admire her ability to pull off looks that feature timeless silhouettes with modern twists.
