The Sussexes Chart New Paths While Balancing Individual and Shared Goals
Harry and Meghan Markle are embracing independent ventures, reflecting a shift in their once-united public front. While maintaining shared commitments to charitable causes, they now appear to prioritise individual projects and pursuits.
Meghan recently reactivated her Instagram account under the handle @meghan, marking her return to social media after six years. Her first post—a solo video celebrating the New Year—highlights her personal rebranding efforts, alongside speculation about reviving her lifestyle blog, The Tig.
However, royal expert Hugo Vickers suggests Meghan's public recognition still hinges on her connection to Harry. “Meghan is known globally, but that fame stems from her marriage to Harry, not her acting career or independent projects,” Vickers told The Sun.
In recent months, their separate commitments have been evident, with Harry attending the DealBook Summit and Meghan honouring Tyler Perry at the Paley Honors Gala. Insiders clarify that this evolution signifies strategic growth rather than personal distance.
While Harry continues his philanthropic endeavours, such as the Invictus Games and mental health advocacy, Meghan focuses on crafting her distinct identity. The world remains captivated by how the Sussexes redefine themselves—as individuals and as a couple—beyond their royal roles.
