Prince Harry Sparks Buzz with New Video Amid Separation Rumors
Meghan Markle Returns to Instagram After Seven Years
The Duchess of Sussex has made a solo return to social media, sharing her first video on her personal Instagram account without Prince Harry, further fueling speculation about the couple's relationship. This move comes amidst ongoing rumors of a "professional separation" between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Seven years after deactivating her original Instagram account upon marrying into the royal family, Meghan Markle has re-emerged on the platform. Her new account, simply titled '@meghan', has one post so far—a short video reel. While the account is yet to be verified with the coveted blue tick, it has already garnered over 200,000 followers within hours of going live.
In the video, Meghan is seen running along the beach, eventually stopping to write "2025" in the wet sand. After dusting her hands, she laughs and runs past the camera. Interestingly, Prince Harry does not appear in the video, though reports suggest he was behind the camera filming the clip.
Meghan’s solo appearance and the creation of a personal account have led to speculation that she and Harry might be pursuing separate professional paths. The post, while lighthearted, comes amidst ongoing discussions about their individual careers and future projects.
Meghan’s return to Instagram may raise eyebrows within the royal family, given her candid criticism of royal life since stepping back as a senior working royal in 2020. Her decision to re-engage with social media could be interpreted as a step toward rebranding herself outside the constraints of royal expectations.
The Duchess has kept comments disabled on her post, signaling a carefully managed approach to her reentry into the public eye. This aligns with her previous moves to control her narrative and interactions with the public.
It’s worth noting that Meghan deactivated her social media accounts—including Instagram, Twitter (now X), Facebook, and her lifestyle blog, *The Tig*—ahead of officially joining the royal family in 2018. This return to Instagram might hint at a new chapter in her journey.
As Meghan navigates her reemergence in the social media world, questions about her and Harry's relationship—both personal and professional—continue to swirl. Will this be a step toward further independence for the Duchess, or simply a creative endeavor? Time will tell.
