Experts Say Meghan Alone Might Command £80,000 as a ‘Royal Super Influencer’
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are poised to become top earners in the social media world, with experts estimating their combined potential earnings at up to £160,000 per post.
Celebrity social media strategist Gary Frayter of Kronus Communications believes Meghan could earn £80,000 per post, describing her as the “first royal super influencer.” “Meghan could easily command $100k per post, and Harry has similar potential,” Frayter explained, suggesting their collaborative efforts could yield substantial financial rewards.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have already showcased their digital prowess. Meghan’s surprise Instagram return on January 1, featuring a beachside video and a teaser for her Netflix series, saw her new account, @meghan, garner one million followers within 24 hours.
Frayter recommends the Sussexes diversify their digital presence, particularly on platforms like YouTube, which offers high revenue opportunities through sponsorships and AdSense. “YouTube is the toughest platform to grow on, but its rewards are unparalleled,” he said. He also highlighted TikTok as a promising platform for Meghan, citing its high engagement rates.
However, Frayter cautioned against focusing on X (formerly Twitter), noting that its politically charged atmosphere doesn’t align with Meghan’s brand or target audience.
With their growing digital footprint, Meghan and Harry are well-positioned to redefine the influencer space, blending their royal heritage with modern social media strategies to achieve unprecedented success.
