Meghan Markle lost her 'mega star' status after leaving royal family?

Meghan Markle has reportedly lost her star power.

Since the Duchess of Sussex made her return to Instagram after a three-year-long break, experts believe that she may no longer hold the same level of status she once had.

Meghan made her debut on Instagram on New Year's Day with a video post. In the video, captured by her husband Prince Harry, Meghan was seen running on a beach with the number "2025" written in the sand.

Although Meghan’s fan following has reached to millions, royal expert Jennie Bond shared her views, according to a report by OK magazine.

Speaking with the outlet, she said, “Meghan is good at PR. Her enigmatic post did exactly what she wanted: got everyone talking about what she’s planning next. It was simple and clever. And it left us all wondering what she meant and what she’s going to be getting up to in 2025.”

She went on to add, “She hasn’t broken any records with gaining followers — and she’s not the mega star she was when she was part of the royal family — but I’m sure her following will build.”

However, Meghan further stated, “Any business these days really has no choice but to engage in social media, so I think this is a shrewd and obvious move for Meghan.”

“And with predictions that each post could earn her staggering sums, you can only wonder what’s taken her so long to get back on Instagram,” Meghan added.
