The Duchess of Sussex faced a setback with the loss of a potential Dior contract to Meg Bellamy, the 21-year-old actress portraying a young Kate Middleton in the acclaimed Netflix series, The Crown.
PR expert Matt Yanofsky, speaking to Mirror, asserts that this setback might actually work in Meghan's favor, thanks to her ties with the royal family. Yanofsky explains, "This benefits Meghan because her royal connection ensures she receives comparable coverage, even without becoming the face of Dior."
He adds, "It's arguably a less risky situation for her. If she were to fail as a spokesperson, the consequences on her fashion career would be less severe."
Royal expert Angela Levin suggests that Meghan is capitalizing on the heightened attention stemming from her marriage to Prince Harry. Taking to X, formerly Twitter, Levin notes, "Meghan will continue to garner the publicity she adores, all thanks to her union with Prince Harry."
