Meghan Markle takes big step to win over Hollywood

Meghan Markle, who made a surprise appearance at an event in Los Angeles, has reportedly revealed her daring plan to win over Hollywood to move on from royal drama.

The Duchess of Sussex, who's making headlines for her new bold look, has given fans a reason to think about her career move by showing off new hair colour during the latest outing.

Harry's wife Meghan swapped her sleek light brown locks for trendy mermaid waves in a new dark brown colour as she made a solo outing over the weekend.

The Duchess re-wore a red Carolina Herrera gown, which she debuted at a Veterans Day event in New York in 2021

Following the event, the salon, which also styled Meghan's hair for the ESPN Espy Awards in July and the Invictus Games in February, gushed about their high-profile client on Instagram.

"Glowing and gorgeous friends Kelly and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, attending Children's Hospital Los Angeles Gala. Cut and style for Meghan @hectorsworldd. Color for both, Kadi," the saloon wrote.

On Saturday, the Duchess of Sussex was a glamorous guest at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles 2024 gala. The 43-year-old walked the red carpet solo as Prince Harry was absent at the event. The Duke of Sussex was in the African Kingdom of Lesotho this week.

For the event, the mother of two recycled her plunging red Carolina Herrera gown, which she originally wore in 2021 when she and Harry attended the Salute to Freedom gala honoring veterans in New York City.

"Meghan's ultimate aim seems to be to make herself relevant and to transform herself into American royalty who is admired and powerful, independent of her husband," psychotherapist Dr. Robi Ludwig told Fox News Digital.

"Whether this will be successful remains to be seen, as the public has not always been receptive to many aspects of her character and personality."

"Wearing red is a powerful, boss lady color," she shared. "It says, ‘I’m here, I’m not hiding, and I’m ready to assume my position of power.’ Wearing red often symbolizes attraction, confidence and empowerment.
