Meghan Markle, who hasn’t been back to England since 2022, has been encouraged to make a trip to the UK and try to appear “more relatable” as part of her rebranding efforts.

The Duchess of Sussex is currently immersed in several projects believed to be part of her and Prince Harry’s rebranding strategy.

Meghan is preparing to launch her new brand, American Riviera Orchard, and is also set to release a new Netflix show focused on cooking and gardening.

It’s been suggested that the Sussexes are keenly focused on crafting a new PR strategy to regain their popularity after hiring two UK-based publicists.

It comes after the pair have both individually recieved nagative ratings from UK respondednts in public opinion polls.

Lynn Carratt, a public relations expert from Press Box PR, told The Mirror: “To maintain their public image, it is important for Meghan to make a visit to the UK and while she has projected a polished image, she should also strive to be more open and relatable to her audiences in both the UK and the US.”

She added: “Real life isn’t picture perfect with flowers and homemade jams and I’m sure Meghan’s life has its difficulties.

“Demonstrating different facets of their personalities and acknowledging past missteps is crucial for Harry and Meghan and building bridges with the Royal Family could help improve public opinion, especially in the UK.”

Carratt believes the choices Harry and Meghan make in their careers are crucial for boosting their public image.

Speaking about the couple’s Netflix deal, she commented: “It is unlikely that they will renew their deal with Netflix. Their recent dinner with Paramount’s Brian Robbins and his wife has sparked speculation about a potential new deal for them with Paramount.

“The success of the upcoming Netflix shows will be instrumental in enhancing their popularity.

“It’s important for them to showcase authenticity rather than striving for a picture-perfect image, as this can help people relate to them better.”
