In a move aimed at resolving their ‘popularity problem’ and enhancing the visibility of their charitable work, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry mull over recruiting a UK-based PR advisor as speculation grows around their potential return and involvement with royal duties.
Meghan Markle is reportedly considering recruiting a British PR advisor to bolster her public image amid discussions of her and Prince Harry’s potential return to the UK. This move aims to tackle the couple’s “popularity problem” and enhance the visibility of their Archewell Foundation work. The Telegraph has indicated that this consideration comes as speculations arise regarding Prince Harry’s re-engagement with royal duties due to concerns around the monarchy’s capacity in light of King Charles’s health issues. The search for a suitable publicist in the UK, however, could be complex, given the skepticism about the couple’s openness to guidance.
This strategic deliberation marks the first time the Sussexes would have a UK-based employee since their relocation to California in 2020. The role would entail overseeing their media representation in the UK and Europe, coordinating closely with their principal team in the US. Recently, Prince Harry visited his father in the UK following the King’s cancer diagnosis, suggesting a tentative step towards royal responsibilities.
In addition to these developments, Meghan Markle is involved in projects outside her potential royal duties, including stepping into lifestyle and wellness branding. She is also slated to participate in a panel discussion on women’s leadership roles. Both Archewell and Buckingham Palace have been solicited for comments regarding these evolving scenarios.
The article also revisits Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s significant public appearance together in Canada in 2017 at the Invictus Games. Meghan’s choice of attire included a “husband” shirt, which fueled engagement rumors prior to their official announcement later that year. Since marrying in May 2018 and stepping back from royal duties, the couple has welcomed two children and settled in California. Prince Harry, notwithstanding their move, has expressed ongoing intentions to visit the UK, signaling potential future engagements and reinforcing the couple’s enduring connection to Harry’s homeland and royal lineage.
