Before her royal marriage, Meghan was known not only as an actress, but also as a social media influencer. She closed her popular blog The Tig in 2017 when she got engaged to Harry. At that time, she also left Instagram, as working British royals are not allowed to have personal social media accounts.
Meghan’s return to social media has been rumored since she and Harry left their lives in Britain behind five years ago.
Meghan already hinted at her return to Instagram in 2022 on The Cut website. In 2023, a social media expert and advisor to several public figures Eric Schiffer estimated for the Daily Mail that Meghan’s possible Instagram account would become one of the most followed in the world. Schiffer saw the return to Instagram as a logical step for Meghan.
– Celebrities like the Kardashian family get more than a million euros from an Instagram post where they promote something. There is no reason Meghan shouldn’t get as much, Schiffer estimated at the time.
Marketing specialist Kent Moore he was also sure that Meghan would get great rewards.
– He is a completely exceptional character, because he is a celebrity, an actor and a royal. A million should be the minimum price for Meghan.
In the spring of 2024, Meghan founded Instagram account for its new American Riviera Orchard lifestyle brand. However, the brand has not yet released any products for public sale, and nothing but the brand’s logo is visible on Instagram.
While working on royal duties, Harry and Meghan also had an official Sussex Royal Instagram account. It has not been updated since the couple left court in spring 2020.
