Meghan Markle to go head-to-head with Gwyneth Paltrow as she relaunches The Tig blog

Meghan Markle’s lifestyle blog The Tig is set for a comeback – and is ready to take on Gwyneth Paltrow’s £200million Goop.

The Duchess, 41, has got official preliminary approval to revive the website she shut down after getting engaged to Prince Harry in 2017.

Like Goop, the revamped blog would offer tips on food, travel, fashion, the arts, design, conscious living and wellness.

The mum of two could also become a kind of agony aunt, according to details filed with the US Trademark and Patent Office. Despite notable tensions between Meghan, her dad, sister and the Royal Family, her site would dole out “commentary in the field of personal relationships”, papers state.

The website, set to go live as soon as next week, could become the latest money-making venture for the Duke and Duchess after they were cut off from royal funds.

Insiders say Meghan hopes to rival Gwynnie’s mega-successful site, which does a lucrative trade in New Age wellness luxuries such as vagina-scented candles.

Meghan founded The Tig, named after her favourite red wine, in 2014 while starring in legal drama Suits.
