Meghan Markle is still getting used to the attention that comes with being a member of the Royal Family, which may explain some of her recent PR missteps, says one PR expert.

Prior to meeting Prince Harry, Meghan starred in the TV series Suits, which ran for seven seasons. While successful in her own right, starring in a reoccurring role, she was not a household name, but that all changed when she married into the Royal Family.

And it appears Meghan is still getting used to that level of fame, says Press Box PR’s Lynn Carratt.

The PR expert took us back to the beginning, saying: “Meghan wasn’t known in the UK, Suits wasn’t all that popular.”

Meghan Markle is still getting used to the attention that comes with being a member of the Royal Family, which may explain some of her recent PR missteps, says one PR expert.

Prior to meeting Prince Harry, Meghan starred in the TV series Suits, which ran for seven seasons. While successful in her own right, starring in a reoccurring role, she was not a household name, but that all changed when she married into the Royal Family.

Adding: “Even now, I think it’s all a little bit new to her, that she’s worldwide famous because if she had never married Harry, she never would have had this level of fame.”

Now that Harry and Meghan are no longer working royals, they have the freedom to pursue professional careers.

Meghan is working on a lifestyle brand, American Riveria Orchard, and her sporadic publicity stunts have landed her in the spotlight, but for the wrong reasons.

Being an actress was a big part of Meghan’s identity, it’s been reported 

Meghan soft launched her lifestyle blog in March, but has yet to list any products. She’s been giving out samples to friends and influencers, which creates some activity, but then it quickly dies down.

Her timing is questionable, making big announcements the same day as other members of the Royal Family, but with that aside, Meghan has the following and they’re interested in buying her products, says Ms Carratt.

“All you have to do is look a Gwyneth Paltrow and Goop. Do I buy those products? No. They’re for a certain high spending lady, who likes to look to her products, which is the same road, which I believe, Meghan Markle is going down.”
