Meghan Markle “is all anyone is talking about,” one prominent Beverly Hills socialite said in an interview this past weekend.
The socialite’s view came after the American Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, were called “grifters” by a prominent Spotify podcaster and following reports that their $20 million podcasting deal with the company had come to an end and that Netflix also may not renew their reported $100 million contract.
Maybe being the topic of conversation around Hollywood is by design. Meghan is undergoing a major rebranding effort under the guidance of powerhouse Ari Emanuel, the chief of talent agency William Morris Endeavor, the Daily Mail reported Sunday. Rehabbing the image of the renegade duchess could reportedly include her signing a multimillion-deal to promote Dior, the French luxury brand associated with glamorous A-listers Charlize Theron and Rihanna — as well as with a polarizing personality like Johnny Depp.
