Could we be calling her Senator Meghan Markle one day?! According to a new report, that was a serious possibility this weekend as far as some political insiders were concerned!
As you may recall, longtime US Senator Dianne Feinstein died on Friday. The Democrat from California had served the Golden State in the federal governing body for years before her passing at age 90. And since her death came in the middle of an active term, she now has to be replaced in the body — which, as rules dictate, must be done by California Governor Gavin Newsom.

Newsom has openly said he intends to replace Feinstein in the Senate with a Black woman. Seeking better (and deserved) representation in that way, the Governor has been pretty clear about his intentions:
But it also has political insiders wondering: could Meghan Markle be the Black woman he chooses?!
Over the weekend, DailyMail.com reported that Meghan being appointed to the Senate was “not an impossibility.” That outlet claimed “within minutes” of Feinstein’s death on Friday, political insiders and connected campaign surrogate “phones lit up” with speculation that Prince Harry‘s wife could be the one appointed. One insider told that news org:
Well, that’s certainly true…
And the outlet went on! For one, Meghan has been “networking among senior Democrats” as a way to “fuel her political ambitions” in the future. Those ambitions reportedly even include becoming President one day. Yes, really!
It’s not just idle talk, either. She and Prince Harry “held a virtual hour-long meeting” with Gov. Newsom over the weekend about Feinstein’s now-open Senate seat and other political ambitions, per the Mail on

sensationally shut the door on royal life in 2020 and hightailed it across the pond to California — forcing the Prince and Princess of Wales to pick up the “extra workload.”“Prince William and Kate are feeling incredibly resentful towards Meghan and Harry for leaving them to pick up the work they dropped when they moved to the States,” a source told Closer magazine. “The extra workload that’s been handed to them is huge.”The insider said William and Kate were left to take on “even more responsibility” following the Sussexes’ decision to move overseas.“It had huge impact on their marriage and family life,” the source said.

Meghan Markle is "clinging" to her royal title "for dear life" as her dreams of becoming a successful US politician are torn apart by a royal expert.
Fox News.“I just feel that Meghan’s never really embraced the rules and rituals of the royal family,” he explained. “The royal family is very much in the rearview mirror of her life.
Meghan Markle has been tipped to use Prince Harry's wide "knowledge" to bag herself the vacant Senator's seat following the death of 90-year-old Dianne Feinstein.
Meghan Markle is determined to reinvent herself as a Hollywood power player. The claim was made by British author Andrew Morton who previously wrote a book on the former "Suits" star titled "Meghan: A Hollywood Princess." He told Fox News Digital he does not envision the mother of two ever returning to the U.K. "Meghan is making her own life on the West Coast," said Morton.
Prince Harry is keen to move back to London to 'get his old life back' which has left Meghan Markle frustrated.
The death of Sen. Dianne Feinstein last week at age 90 has left the longtime California politician’s Senate seat vacant, and rumours are swirling that Meghan Markle is among those in contention to become the state’s next Senator.
Oprah Winfrey and Meghan Markle are reportedly among those being considered to replace late Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif. Winfrey's name is among those being floated for the role, according to Newsmax and The Desert Sun, but the successful TV host-turned-billionaire book publisher and entrepreneur indicated as recently as in May that she "is not considering the seat should it become vacant," according to the Los Angeles Times.
It seems like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made the most of their recent trip to Europe.
Meghan Markle is unlikely to ever return to the royal fold as Prince William and Kate Middleton make her "uncomfortable", says one royal expert.
Express that it’s “unlikely ever to see Meghan in the same frame as [Prince] William and Kate.”Irving went on: “I don’t think [Markle] is comfortable with them because they’re not comfortable with her. I think it’s basically Harry’s appearances that will matter now, not her.” He added that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are not using their royal status to become celebrities and are building their media empire on their own.“Harry and Meghan’s celebrity used to rest on the former’s connection to the royal family, but they’ve now been celebrities in their own right for so long that they don’t need to trade on that anymore,” Irving said.He continued: “That’s no longer part of their lives.”Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, moved to California in 2020 once they stepped away from the royal family.He also discussed how Markle won’t be attending many royal engagements anymore as she allegedly doesn’t want to be “accused of embarrassing” King Charles or “being a burden on the monarchy.”Middleton and Markle have not always been the best of friends, with a rift between the sister-in-laws bubbling over in the last few years.The Invictus Games founder even described the tense relationship between the two women in his recent memoir, “Spare,” noting their fight over Markle’s bridesmaid dress fitting in 2018.
