Renowned royal author Tom Bower has revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, are considering changing their surname. According to a report from The Hindustan Times, the couple has been discussing adopting Princess Diana’s last name, Spencer, as part of a major rebranding effort. This move signals their desire to align themselves more closely with the legacy of Prince Harry’s late mother.
Bower sheds light on Meghan’s aspirations and her admiration for Princess Diana, stating, “Meghan decided her real object in life was to be Diana.” He adds that Harry shares the same passion. In a bold move, Meghan suggested dropping the Windsor name and adopting Spencer. The idea has been discussed with others, indicating that it has not been taken lightly.
The couple recently decided to end their collaboration with Spotify, as reported by The Wall Street Journal. Their podcast, Archetypes, which featured illustrious guests such as Mariah Carey, Mindy Kaling, and Serena Williams, will not return for a second season. The podcast’s objective was to “investigate, dissect, and subvert the labels that try to hold women back.” However, a source claims that the couple did not produce enough content to warrant a multi-million-dollar payout.
Despite this, it appears that Prince Harry and Meghan have other plans in the works. A source informed The Wall Street Journal that Meghan is developing more content for the Archetypes audience on another platform.
Recent rumors suggested that Meghan Markle was in talks with renowned fashion house Dior for a potential partnership. However, a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess has refuted these claims, telling The Telegraph that the rumors are untrue. Nevertheless, the speculation led to the couple being dubbed the “Duke and Duchess of Dior.”
As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to redefine their roles in the public eye, their potential rebranding and surname change reflects their desire to forge new paths while paying homage to the legacy of Princess Diana. Their commitment to creating a unique identity, both as individuals and as a couple, is evident as they move forward into the future.
