Meghan and Mrs. Obama are now part of the same high-profile public speaking agency and are interested in promoting the issue of female empowerment. Both women are now famous in their own right, but early in her role as Duchess of Sussex, Meghan allegedly turned to Mrs. Obama for help. They first met secretly in London when Mrs. Obama was on tour for her book, Becoming, and have since become close confidants.
Obama revealed his thoughts on the duchess on Instagram last year, posting a picture of Meghan when she attended a Youth reception at the British High Commissioner’s residence in Cape Town.
She captioned it: “Thank you to my friend, Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex, a thoughtful leader who is breaking the mold and making our world better for her … she is an inspiration to many.
“Whether she meets with our leaders or helps girls around the world find the education they deserve, she is an inspiration to many.”
Mrs. Obama also told Meghan that “there is no prescribed path” when she advised her what to do with her guest-edited Vogue magazine last year, advice that may have inspired Meghan to follow her own instincts and leave the Family. Real.
The Evening Standard noted in January: “They have both questioned the scrutiny that their husbands’ jobs bring and are trying to use their platform to forge progressive roles in the world.”
For example, Mrs. Obama told Good Housekeeping: “I didn’t think it was a great idea for Barack to run for office; she would be required to leave home and she was too serious, too full of brave plans to be a politician … there were better ways for a good person to have an impact. “
The Evening Standard added that the “alliance” between the two women could be “Meghan’s creation.”

She continued: “I spent the first few months in the White House caring primarily for my daughters, making sure they got off to a good start in school, and making new friends before starting a more ambitious job.
“I think it’s okay, it’s even good, to do that.”
However, Meghan was incredibly interested in immersing herself in the real work.
He stated in early 2018 that he wanted to “start running.”
The courtiers then praised his “strong work ethic” during his Morocco tour in 2019 with Prince Harry in particular.
She had continued to carry out all her commitments despite being seven and a half months pregnant.
