Meghan Markle sparked curiosity with a subtle hint in her recent Instagram post suggesting her royal status. The post showcased her experience at the Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit in Washington DC, where she was a speaker.
A video snippet featured the duchess being chauffeured around iconic locations in Washington DC before reaching the summit venue. Notably, a suitcase with a bag bearing the initials ‘DS,’ believed to symbolize her title as Duchess of Sussex, was visible in the footage.
Earlier this year, Meghan faced backlash for allegedly using her HRH title against a prior agreement with the late Queen. She and Prince Harry relinquished their HRH titles upon stepping back as senior royals in March 2020, but a gift card from Meghan still bore the title “HRH The Duchess of Sussex.”
During her appearance at the summit, Meghan seemed to make subtle remarks, hinting at her transition away from royal duties. She discussed past events, indicating a shift in priorities towards family and personal projects.
Since their departure from royal life, the Sussexes have ventured into lucrative deals, with Meghan launching her brand, hosting a podcast, and pursuing other ventures. Meghan’s recent travel schedule has been packed, including solo trips to Paris and New York, emphasizing her dedication to balancing work and family life.
