Meghan Markle‘s best career option right now is ‘acting’

Meghan Markle’s acting return was long due, as an expert.

The Duchess of Sussex, who is apparently making a comeback in acting after quitting suits back in 2019, is fit for a career in those direction.

Writing in The Times on Saturday, expert Tina Brown noted: "It was always the best option for Meghan to return to acting, something she was genuinely good at until she threw it in to marry Harry. In 2023, when replays of her old hit cable show Suits were inexplicably all the rage on Netflix, it would have been a legitimate pop culture sensation and a major payday if she had let her agents pitch her for a reboot.”

"But no. Duchesses don’t do ensembles. Meghan believed she could pull off some kind of manic multihyphenate mishmash of entertainment enterprises in between accompanying her husband on ersatz royal tours to promote random global uplift." Ms Brown added: "As Martha Stewart noted: “If you’re an actress, it’s hard to then transition to a princess and then from a princess into a homemaking guru on a television show. It doesn’t sort of follow.”
