Meghan Markle is a feminist and she makes it known on her official page. “I am proud to be a woman and a feminist”: a sentence to which the young woman is visibly attached since it appears in bold and prominently in her biography published on the site of the royal family. It was in 2015, at the UN, on International Women's Day, that Meghan Markle uttered this sentence. Now Duchess of Sussex, she intends to take advantage of this new “function” to promote gender equality. But the 36-year-old's commitment to the feminist struggle is not new, since at the age of 11, she "successfully" led a campaign to have a sexist advertisement for washing-up liquid changed. .
A WOMAN OF CONVICTION
In his biography, however, the palace made some small omissions. Few references to her acting career, even if it is described as "brilliant". Only his role in the series “Suits” is mentioned. From now on, Meghan must devote herself to "royal obligations", both in the United Kingdom and abroad and must take care of charities and charities. A mission that she will have no trouble accomplishing since in 2014, she joined the organization "One Young World", a youth forum organized on the sidelines of the Davos forum. In 2015, she became a defender of women's rights at the United Nations and the following year she became the ambassador of the association "World Vision".
Meghan Markle is not only committed to women's rights. From ages 13 to 22, she volunteered for a soup kitchen in the poor suburbs of Los Angeles. And when she was playing in the series "Suits" filmed in Canada, the actress set up a system so that leftover meals on set were donated to shelters for the homeless. It is undoubtedly this trait of his personality that seduced Prince Harry, known to support many associations. The couple, decidedly generous, had also asked their guests at the wedding not to give them gifts, but rather to give priority to a donation to a charitable organization.
