Meghan’s time to shine Birthday presence
As she enters what many believe will be her defining decade, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, appears to have finally created the royal fairy tale she always wanted.
It’s a reinvention carried out entirely on her own terms – just 16 months after quitting royal life in a blaze of anger and recrimination, Meghan is now happy and fulfilled, determinedly combining motherhood with doing good from the sanctuary of her Los Angeles home.
“Friends of Meghan say she is in a very peaceful place, just enjoying being with her family and focusing on projects that she feels contribute to the greater good,” said author Omid Scobie, a longtime Meghan supporter, on the eve of her August 4 birthday.
With her trademark dewy skin and that inimitable LA confidence, Meghan marked her milestone with a surprise video posted to her and Prince Harry’s Archewell website. It was the duchess’ first major public initiative since welcoming her second child, Lilibet “Lili” Diana Mountbatten-Windsor, on June 4, and the new mum seemed a picture of happiness as she announced her new venture 40x40, designed to help women back into the workforce.
