Meghan Markle will begin September distanced from the British royal family and with a new project in mind.
The agenda of the Dukes of Sussex seems to definitely go their separate ways when it comes to traveling to London. Harry will be present at the WellChild Awards Ceremony on September 7th. She has been a patron of the organization, which supports children with disabilities and various organizations that help them, since 2007. Although Meghan Markle has accompanied Harry in other years at this awards ceremony, this time she will not be present. The next day, September 8, marks the first anniversary of the death of Queen Elizabeth II. On the 9th, Harry will be in Düsseldorf, at the opening of the Invictus Games.
Some information already suggests that, despite being in London, Harry will not meet with his family, although it is not yet known how the British royalty will remember Elizabeth II. On those days, King Charles III will be in Balmoral, and William in Wales, so it doesn't look like the duke will have much time to meet them. Some sources say that on September 17, when he returns from the Invictus Games, Harry could have a "peace" meeting with Guillermo and Carlos. But others assure us that things are still very far away from reaching that conversation. Harry last saw his father and his brother at the Coronation last May.
Meghan will be present, on the contrary, at the Invictus Games, which this year are held in Düsseldorf, between September 9 and September 16. The Duchess will attend the opening ceremony with Harry, for whom this sporting event is one of the most beloved events on her agenda. "I have enormous respect for what they and their families sacrifice," she explained to People magazine in 2014, referring to the military he protects.
This separation of Harry and Meghan when it comes to traveling to the United Kingdom portends, for many, a crisis between the two: Meghan would have decided to cut all ties with British royalty – despite retaining the title of Duchess and the fact that her children are princes-, while Harry would continue to seek a reconciliation with his family, since like it or not, his whole world is related to it.
New projects away from the royals
What seems clear is that the couple have decided that the Duchess will not return to the United Kingdom for the moment. Meghan's bad press, far from diminishing over time, has continued to grow, and it seems that Harry prefers to deal alone with her family conflict. For her part, Meghan seems to feel more and more free to be herself. The latest decision is the launch of an Instagram account under the nickname "Meghan", according to the British newspaper Daily Mail.
It will be a way to stay in touch with those who admire her, but also to generate millionaire income with her publications. They could reach a million dollars, according to estimates by social media professionals, while Meghan would become one of the highest-paid "influencers" with the largest advertising contracts in the world.
Sources from the Duchess's environment assure that the launch is close. The account, illustrated with a photo of some dahlias, can be seen on the platform, but it does not host any posts yet, although it already has more than 100,000 followers. The Duchess announced the possibility of having a new Instagram in her interview with The Cut magazine last year.
The experts assure that the content will be very careful and that she will work with highly prestigious brands related to the values that she defends. Meghan's last account was the one she shared with her husband, @sussexroyal, who had more than nine million followers, before deactivating it in 2020 after leaving active royal life.
