Are we about to witness the comeback of Meghan Markle?

Seasoned observers of Meghan Markle – and by now, surely, there cannot be any other kind – might be forgiven for wondering why the Duchess of Sussex has been keeping a comparatively low profile so far in 2023. Her husband seems ubiquitous, whether popping up in the law courts to denounce the media, plugging his memoir or keeping a nation guessing before announcing that he will, in fact, attend his father’s coronation. Meghan, on the other hand, has been notable by her absence from the public gaze.

Yet it might be that she is preparing to make a grand comeback. The news broke recently that the Duchess has signed up with the all-powerful Hollywood talent agency William Morris Entertainment (WME), home of A-list stars from Rihanna to Hugh Jackman. Meghan herself will be managed by Brad Slater and Jill Smoller – the architects behind the success of, respectively, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Serena Williams – as well as the all-powerful Ari Emanuel.
