As Thanksgiving approaches in Hollywood, recent news has revealed that the British royal family’s most unconventional ‘sensational daughter-in-law,’ Meghan, is officially returning to showbiz. She has accepted a role in the comedy ‘Close Personal Friends’—and will be playing herself. This marks her first time back on a TV series set since stepping down from her role on the popular drama ‘Suits’ in 2017, after an eight-year hiatus.
The news caused a storm of debate online in the UK, with critics asking, ‘What exactly is she up to?’ Some are skeptical of how much she loves performing, noting that each time she changes her identity, it’s accompanied by meticulously planned PR campaigns. Many have criticized her for creating the lifestyle brand ‘As Ever’ and teaming up with Netflix to produce the lifestyle show ‘With Love, Meghan,’ accusing her of deliberately crafting the image of the ‘perfect wife’—calling it an exercise in flaunting wealth and being out of touch with reality!
In contrast to the negative press in the UK, most American media outlets have responded positively, seeing this as an important moment for Meghan—the chance to return to what she loves most. Reportedly, she received many offers, but this script resonated with her the most. As always, her husband Prince Harry fully supports her return to acting and encourages her to ‘do what makes you happy.’
