Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is a former actress who married into the British royal family. Markle is married to Prince Harry and the couple has a son together, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor. She was previously married to actor and producer Trevor Engelson from 2011 until their divorce in 2013.

On Wednesday, January 8, Markle and Prince Harry announced that they were officially stepping down as senior members of the Royal Family.

“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution,” the Duke and Duchess of Sussex said in a statement. “We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen.

“It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honor our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages. This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity. We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty The Queen, The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, please accept our deepest thanks for your continued support.”

On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me… Meghan’s favorite travel accessory by @stowlondon! It’s no surprise that Meghan has perfected the art of traveling in style — no matter if she’s making appearances during a royal tour or visiting the States for baby showers, the Duchess of Sussex has learned a thing or two about looking good (with the right accessories!) wherever she goes. I have received so many questions from all of you about Meghan’s travel case by the English brand Stow, which she’s been photographed with several times. She loves the case so much that she even posted a photo of it stylishly accessorized with her passport and sunglasses on her old Instagram account! The soft First Class Leather Tech Case features a multitude of compartments, incisions and folds to store essential documents when on the move. The right-hand side of the case can home all travel ID, documents and tech. Five, handy and secure slots for credit cards, loyalty cards, photo ID and your mobile phone sit at the bottom of the tech case. Above these slots, two leather pockets are hand-stitched, for use as storage for passports, boarding passes and an iPad Mini or a Kindle. What’s even better about this small but mighty case is that it comes with a portable charger, giving you about two extra charges for your devices. You can even add an embossed monogram for free, making for a great personalized gift idea. Meghan has been seen carrying the orange version of the case but it is also available in Sahara Tan, Jet Black, Emerald Green, and more! Use code FCTC25 for 25% OFF any colour-way of the First Class Leather Tech Case! This includes complimentary embossing and complimentary shipping to the following territories (USA, Canada, and Europe). Promo code expires 12/9 at 12pm EST. Link in my bio to shop. Happy Holidays!!! ✈🎄🧡

Holiday Giveaway Alert! 👠 Every time Meghan steps in public, we start drooling her fashion choices. But among her signature hats and polished dresses, what we really envy are her high heels. Or specifically, how she can wear them with no sign of pain! You're probably curious to know how the Duchess of Sussex manages to carry around little Archie, maneuver in grass, and do basically everything else while wearing stilettos. With all the meeting and greeting a royal needs to do, she's in high heels a good deal of the time. Lucky for you, I did some digging and found her secret!! It has been reported that Kate and Meghan are big fans of @alicebowstore insoles. The paddings are made of Italian leather and slip into a pair of heels. Designer Rachel Bowman created them to cushion the foot and heel while you walk—and apparently, the Duchesses think they live up to their hype. These one-of-a-kind, cute AND comfy shoe insoles by @alicebowstore were created to make your looks (and your life) way easier. Two lucky Meghan fans will win a pair of Alice Bows PLUS custom embossing with your name on them! Want in? Details 👇. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ How to enter:⁠⠀ 1. Follow @alicebowstore & @hrhofsussex 2. Like this post⁠⠀ 3. Tag three friends on this post⁠ Each comment is an entry. Up to 10 entries allowed. This giveaway ends 12/12 at 11:59pm/pst and the winner will be announced on 12/13! If you want to get a pair, @alicebowstore has been generous enough to give all of my followers 15% off with code AB15. This code expires on 12/16 but you need to order soon to get these by Christmas! These would be a perfect (and creative) gift for your Mom, Sister, BFF, etc!! Happy shopping my darlings!! Link to shop in my bio. X 💗

Anyone here have a December Birthday? With a new year just around the corner (and, a new decade!) I wanted to share Meghan’s go-to Birthday wish that goes hand-in-hand with the upcoming New Year! Penning a post on her old blog “The Tig” back in 2016, Meghan wrote: “My mom has always said that birthdays are your own personal New Year. Your own chance to make resolutions just for yourself and what you prognosticate for your year ahead.” Her birthday wish? She reveals: “More surprises, more adventure, more opportunities to grow, more days filled with giggles and cheeky jokes, more delicious meals, and more inspiration. Always more inspiration.” Are you planning your New Year’s Resolution yet? I would love to hear yours!! ❤

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, takes her royal patronages very seriously, and that includes showing her support on World Access to Higher Education Day. The duchess wrote a letter for the ACU, of which she is the royal patron, discussing the importance of access to education for all. 📚🖊 Read the duchess's World Access to Higher Education Day letter in full below: “Today, on World Access to Higher Education Day, we are able to celebrate the vital role that colleges and universities play in society and how important it is for all people, regardless of gender or socioeconomic background, to have the opportunity to access this higher education. The value of this cannot be understated. Because education expands mindsets, and those minds can then expand the scope of the world at large. From a micro to a macro level, it is with education that we see great change. Earlier this year I met Simon Kiongo from Kenya, who grew up on a small family farm, and traded vegetables as a means of covering tuition costs. It struck me as such a prime example of how so many around the world yearn for education and do whatever they can to afford themselves that opportunity. Now, with support from the ACU, he is doing remarkable cancer research for his country, specifically looking at fertilizers in the food supply and the carcinogenic links that has on community health. Simon is higher education in action. The ACU highlights journeys to belonging—looking at how universities can support access to higher education for those who are most vulnerable—be it refugees or those displaced. Additionally the ACU continues to create opportunities for those within the university structure—the faculty and staff who require grants to maximize the impact of their research studies, and enabling students to exceed even their own expectations of what they can achieve. I am proud to be patron of the ACU and all that it stands for, as we champion those seeking a higher education and commit to making this world a better place—together.”
