Meghan Markle’s ‘new’ Instagram rakes in 100k followers – without sharing one single post
MEGHAN Markle’s suspected “new” Instagram has raked in 100k followers – without sharing one single post.
The Duchess of Sussex, 42, is reportedly getting ready to make a comeback – five years after deleting her personal account.
She ditched her personal account after becoming part of the Firm and in April 2018 made a joint one with husband Harry, named @sussexroyal.
But the couple then shut it down when they quit the UK just two years later.
And now it’s rumoured Meghan is ready for an online comeback after a new account, with the handle @meghan, surfacing.
The account was made in June 2022 when Harry and Meghan were visiting the UK for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Sources now believe the page points towards an end to Meghan’s online hiatus.
No posts have been made yet and the profile picture is a stock image of pink peonies – Meghan’s favourite flower.
Despite having no posts and not following anyone, the account has already seen thousands subscribe – ready for its first.
In the last three weeks @meghan has gained a whopping 70,000 followers.
And in just two days it’s amassed 22k – hitting 100,000 followers on Monday.
According to Instagram, the account holder has changed the username once but it is not known why or when.
The alleged new account, followed by some of Meghan’s friends and colleagues, is creating a buzz in Hollywood, according to the NY Post.
It comes after Meghan revealed last August that she was thinking of returning to social media.
She told The Cut: “Do you want to know a secret? I’m getting back…on Instagram.”
Before her marriage to Prince Harry, Meghan had regularly posted on social media and ran a lifestyle blog called The Tig.
And she posted pictures of pink peonies – her favourite flower – supposedly gifted to her by Prince Harry once they started dating.
She captioned the snap: “Swooning over these. #London #peonies #spoiledrotten”.
