Meghan Markle ‘may restart lifestyle blog’ and it could be bigger than Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop, expert claims
MEGHAN Markle could restart her popular lifestyle blog, a royal expert has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex, 40, used to run The Tig before she married Prince Harry, but shut it down just before her lavish 2011 wedding.
Royal expert Neil Sean said on YouTube that it would be the perfect time for the mum-of-two to relaunch the blog now the Sussexes have relocated to the US.
He said: “It worked incredibly well for her, because then designers wanted to loan her clothes, makeup brands were keen to be associated with her, simply because she was attached to a cable TV show called Suits.
“According to a very good source, it appears that Meghan, alongside Harry, think this would be a very good time to restart ‘The Tig.’”
Neil said if Meghan started a blog, it could rival actress Gwyneth Paltrow’s holistic lifestyle blog Goop, which sells eye-raising products such as vagina-scented candles.
Neil added: “And that’s all thanks to Gwyneth Paltrow. She has a very similar operation called ‘The Goop’.
“Sources close to Harry and Meghan feel that this could be a way forward, and of course, keeping their environmentally friendly credentials going.
“Everything you can imagine will be vegan-themed, vegetarian themed.”
He added that Meghan couldn’t have done the blog while she was a senior working royal, but now she has stepped back, close advisors “think she could easily eclipse the very successful Gwyneth Paltrow.”
