Meghan Markle preparing for ‘quite powerful ‘acting comeback

Meghan Markle could be leaning towards an interesting step in her career.

The Duchess of Sussex, who is set to make an acting comeback more than six years after quitting the profession, could head towards an exciting career trajectory.

PR expert Mayah Riaz says: “A return to acting could actually be quite interesting for Meghan because it would take her back to an identity that existed before the Royal Family."

She added: "There can be something quite powerful about returning to an old profession rather than constantly trying to invent a new one. It could allow people to see Meghan as an actress again, rather than exclusively as the Duchess of Sussex.”

Mayah said: “The bigger issue would be the publicity surrounding the comeback. If every interview, premiere or casting announcement becomes another opportunity to discuss Harry, the Royal Family or their past experiences, then the old narrative immediately follows her into the new career. If she genuinely wants a fresh chapter, she has to be prepared to talk about the work rather than the feud.”
