Meghan Markle believes her latest move will bring a total turnaround in her fortune, business interests and public relations. See details

Meghan Markle is seemingly still finding her footing despite moving to the United States with Prince Harry in 2020 and her latest move has her feeling the ‘pressure.’

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been living in the United States since the two left the royal family back in 2020. Ever since, they have been dabbling in a number of projects and business ventures, as well as Harry’s focus on his Invictus Games. And while the two have said they’re “really happy” in the States, it seems that they haven’t entirely found their footing. Now, Meghan’s latest move is being dubbed a potential “disaster” as the duchess faces “pressure” to succeed.

Meghan Markle is reportedly feeling ‘pressure’ to ensure her latest move isn’t disastrous
The Duchess of Sussex faced scrutiny in 2023 when it was announced that her podcast, Archetypes, was not renewed beyond its first series of episodes. Meghan and Spotify parted ways after the company said the podcast didn’t perform as expected. Since then, Meghan has re-signed with Lemonada Media — but that isn’t all she’s done.

Earlier this year, Meghan announced a new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, as well as a new cooking show on Netflix. But one insider claims the duchess is feeling “pressure” to succeed.

According to Express, an inside source told Closer Magazine that things are “tense” at home as Meghan prepares to launch yet another new business venture. “You can just imagine the kind of pressure it’s putting on her and, by extension, Harry,” the source said. “If this show flops it will be a total disaster, and she knows it. She’s on tenterhooks waiting for it to come out and the stress it’s causing her is being felt by everyone around her, especially Harry.”

It seems that the cooking show, which does not have a name or release date, is coming out in tandem with Meghan’s new brand, but the lack of details is only causing concern as to how the show will perform.

Meghan Markle knows she has to find a niche and stick with it
Meghan is no stranger to lifestyle brands; she had her blog, The Tig, which was supposedly quite successful, prior to meeting Harry. She closed down the blog after she and Harry became engaged, but it’s no surprise that she’s remained interested in the lifestyle space. It seems she does have the means to launch a successful home and life brand.

With that said, it almost has to work. After the Spotify situation and the general controversy surrounding Meghan and Harry’s royal exit, Meghan needs to find her footing if she wants to be taken seriously as a celebrity. It’s certainly possible, as long as the new brand presents itself as relatable — but time will tell.
