Meghan Markle knew there would be a shift in her popularity before she married Prince Harry.

Keeping a track of her career in Hollywood, royal expert Jonathan Sacerdoti opined during an interview with Sky News that the former Suits actress already had her plans set before she married into the Royal Family.

“She grew up with high ambitions and started to reach them as an actress - putting in the work, obviously not a terribly successful actress in terms of being well known internationally.”

Sacerdoti was of the view that Meghan has “become probably one of the most known or recognisable names in the world just by marrying somebody.”

According to the expert, Meghan is now steering the Sussex brand which reflects her “enormous amount of planning and ambition” which must have gone into her wedding plans with Prince Harry.

Elaborating on his point further, he added, “I don’t mean to be totally unromantic – maybe she did fall in love with Harry, maybe their relationship is also one of partnership and love in that respect.”

He added that one cannot marry into the royal family “without knowing what it’s going to do to your reputation and your exposure internationally.”

“And then I think they’ve used that to their advantage, many would say is there is their right.”

Meghan Markle is currently in pursuit of her solo career given how Prince Harry given how her joint reputation with Prince Harry as a whole Sussex brand.

However, Sacerdoti told Express.co.uk, that the Sussexes are not concerned about their drop in popularity as “they’ve chosen to market themselves towards a totally different demographic and therefore, they maybe don't mind that slide in popularity here.”
