Meghan Markle appears unfazed by her critics as she reportedly moves ahead with big plans ahead of her arrival in Sydney next week.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are visiting Down Under for the first time since their 2018 royal tour, and the couple are hoping to make the most of this opportunity.
This is considered a private visit as the Sussexes will be going on their own for business, hence there is government interference in the matter. However, Buckingham Palace was informed about it before it was announced to the public.
As the royal family grapples with his string of problems following the Andrew-Esptein scandal, there has been a decline in public view, and Australia in particular has seen growing anti-monarchy movements of late. Meghan hopes to turn that to her advantage.
“It’s no secret that a lot of people in Australia aren’t exactly fans of the royal family, just look at how much traction the anti-monarchist movement has over there,” an insider said. Heat magazine.
She is convinced that they can capitalize on that feeling and position themselves as the modern alternative to the royal family.”
The insider claimed the As Ever founder is taking it as a “massive green light” and believes people will “automatically” be far more receptive to her and Harry than they are in England.
“She really feels she can be the new queen of hearts down under,” the source said, adding that Meghan sees a “huge market” in Australia with “serious money”.
They continued: “She has already secured a lot of trademarks to launch her products and she is very excited about the potential.”
Meghan is likely to test the waters during this visit. Reports earlier this year claimed that Meghan has a huge stockpile of products and plans to go international, which is why she reportedly cut ties with Netflix for her lifestyle brand.
