When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle met, they knew they had a unique and fascinating love story that would last through decades.
They saw marriage, children, and lots of philanthropy in their future. The pair, who are strongly opinionated, also assumed that they would modernize and revolutionize the outdated British Monarchy.
Markle is the first person of color to join the famous family, and she was hugely popular when she became Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
Markle, bright, highly educated, and an activist with a mind of her own, had hoped to be at the forefront of the changes inside The Palace walls. However, that did not happen.
Instead, Prince Harry and his wife faced a barrage of incidents and scandals that pushed them to step down from their royal duties and move to California.
For the past two and half years, the California royals have become advocates and speech givers who dared to venture into American politics.
Markle is the first British royal to vote in an American presidential election. Along with Prince Harry, she used her voice and platform to urge Americans to get out and vote.
While never mentioning former President Donald Trump by name, she hinted that Joe Biden was the man for the job.
Markle penned a letter to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi advocating for paid parental leave.
She later spoke to multiple Democrats and Republicans and urged them to support the law benefiting women.
Markle surprised many by traveling to Texas after nineteen students and two teachers were fatally shot at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde.
All these actions and decisions mentioned above have the world buzzing and speculating that Meghan Markle is ready for the most significant role of her life — President of the United States.
Of course, many are rooting for Markle to run for office, including Joe Biden’s sister and advisor. Valerie Biden Owens pushed Meghan Markle to pursue her political ambitions straight to the White House by saying: “It’s wonderful to have women in politics. The more women we have, the better our democratic system will work, with a better point of view, a different point of view, and we embrace all women. We welcome [Meghan] to come in and join the Democratic Party.”
However, how does Prince Harry feel about his wife’s desire to be the leader of the free world?
While it might not have been part of his plans, Prince Harry is supportive of the prospect of Meghan Markle running for president. He is even delighted to be the first Gentleman.
He is open to all these exciting and life-changing ideas, and Prince Harry is letting Markle know that her clock is ticking and that he will not sit around waiting forever while she chases her most significant goal.
A source close to Markle and Prince Harry spoke to Closer and said that he warned her that there is not much time left.
The insider claimed: “With all this speculation around her political career ambitions, everyone thinks Harry would be happy at the idea of being First Gentleman if she accomplishes her long-term goal. Having said that, he might be fine with it right now – but you have to wonder for how much longer.”
Investigative journalist Tom Bower, who spoke to many of Markle’s friends and former colleagues for his book entitled Revenge, also spoke to Closer and had a fascinating answer when asked if she would try her hand at politics.
He said: “The prospect of Meghan running for president is possible, and I’d even say likely. I really believe it’s where she sees herself going.”
The question remains, can she win in a very polarized political environment?
