Meghan Markle has long been rumored to have been eyeing a career in politics, with previous unconfirmed reports suggesting that she’s been forging connections with top Democrats since stepping down from royal duties in 2020.

President Biden’s sister, Valerie Biden Owens, even previously reportedly “endorsed” Meghan as a woman she would back for the White House.

GB News recently reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s visit to Nigeria, dubbed the ‘Meghan Tour’, has been described as a potential “warm-up act” of what it would look like if Meghan ran for US President.

Speaking to GB News, royal expert Michael Cole has spoken about whether the former actress would ever consider running for the high-profile political role.

After giving examples of two others in similar positions to Meghan – such as Arnold Schwarzeneger – Mr Cole said: “Maybe this is, shall we say, the third act in the drama of her life. [The] first act being a successful actress in a legal soap, [the] second act [is] marrying a royal prince and becoming a royal duchess [and the] third act [is] politics.”

“Plenty of people have gone into it, there are presidents and maybe that’s what [Meghan] sees herself doing.”

Meghan had previously been tipped to be “well positioned” to forge a career in the political field.

Speaking back in 2022, brand and reputation management expert Eric Schiffer told Express.co.uk that he could see Meghan branch out into the field “over the next 20 years”.

Although she remained strictly politically neutral during her time as a working member of the Firm – as required by royal protocol – Meghan had started speaking openly about voter registration and voting rights in the US.
