Meghan Markle, in particular, had openly expressed her aspirations of becoming a prominent social media influencer, harboring grand plans to represent A-list brands such as Dior and amass significant earnings through strategic endorsements. However, in a surprising twist of events, Meghan recently made an unexpected appearance in an advertisement for a coffee company.
This shift marked a notable departure from her previous regal status within the royal family to a more down-to-earth position as a working celebrity. The coffee brand in question, Clever Blends, shared a promotional video on Instagram that provided viewers with a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the company's operations. In the clip, co-founder Hannah Doza introduced the dedicated team responsible for fulfilling orders during their busy season. Among them, Meghan quietly assumed various roles, from working on a computer to stacking boxes.
The caption playfully acknowledged the company's busy season and the need for reinforcements. While the spotlight was on the Clever Blends team, sharp-eyed viewers spotted Meghan actively participating in the ad. It was revealed that Meghan had also privately invested in the company.
However, the news of Meghan's choice to promote an instant coffee company as she embarked on her career shift toward being a social media influencer and brand representative triggered a range of reactions. Rumors surfaced that the talent agency WME had dropped her, and critics took to social media to express their thoughts. Some critics believed that Meghan's involvement with a coffee ad indicated that she had been dropped by WME.
Commentators noted that this coffee company endorsement marked Meghan's first post-royal endorsement. WME had initially sought to position her as more than just an Instagram influencer but had faced challenges due to Meghan's independent actions. Speculation grew that the talent agency had severed ties with her, and Meghan had returned to her previous strategies, including PR maneuvers.
One critic suggested that Meghan might be testing her influence and marketing reach with her investment in the coffee company, given that it posed little risk to her. However, opinions on the matter were divided, with many expressing skepticism about her choices. Some critics believed that Meghan's track record indicated a series of failures in her endeavors. Others found humor in the elaborate outfit changes she made in the ad, contrasting her multiple wardrobe changes with the simplicity of the other participants.
In the end, Meghan Markle's unexpected venture into the world of coffee advertisements sparked a wide range of opinions and discussions within both the media and the public eye.
