Meghan Markle’s new Instagram handle sparked rumors of a split from Prince Harry, but fans quickly noticed a title blunder that raised eyebrows.
Los Angeles: So, Meghan Markle just launched her new Instagram account, and fans are buzzing about a little mix-up. It seems her handle suggested she might be separated from Prince Harry, which got everyone talking.
She kicked off her solo account with just her first name, “Meghan,” and a single post that’s already racked up 458,000 followers. The post is a cute video filmed by Harry, showing her having fun on the beach. But some eagle-eyed fans noticed that her profile initially didn’t include her full title.
After some chatter, she updated it to “Meghan, Duchess of Sussex,” but fans were quick to point out that missing “The” in front of her title could imply she’s a divorcee. Yikes! That’s a big deal in royal circles.
In the video, Meghan is seen writing “2025” in the sand, and it was filmed by Harry, which seems to confirm they’re still together despite the rumors swirling around. They’ve been spotted at events separately lately, which has fueled speculation.
But a close friend of the couple insists they have a “functional and healthy relationship” and are just busy with their work commitments. After the initial confusion, fans on social media were quick to share screenshots of her profile before and after the change.
One fan even pointed out how Sarah Ferguson, Prince Andrew’s ex-wife, doesn’t use “The” in her title, which is a clear sign of being a divorcee. But given that Harry filmed the video for Meghan’s account, it’s hard to believe there’s any truth to the split rumors.
Harry himself laughed off the speculation, saying he feels sorry for those who keep hoping for a breakup. Meanwhile, the couple recently shared a festive family photo for their Christmas card, featuring their kids, Archie and Lilibet, looking adorable.
In one of the six photos, you can see the kids running towards their parents, and it’s just heartwarming. The card even had a sweet message from their office, showing they’re still very much a family.
