How Much Money Meghan Markle Could Make If She Returns To Acting
She gave up life as an actress when she became engaged to Prince Harry and married into the Royal Family. However, with her time as a working royal almost at a close, Meghan Markle is free to once again pursue her former passion—and could do so for a major cost.
According to Express UK, offers have already been pouring in for the Duchess of Sussex, who used to make more than $50,000 per episode when she starred on “Suits.” However, the increase in her star power since becoming a royal would likely allow her to command a higher paycheck if she chose to return to acting or started promoting products.
An Organic Botox company reportedly tried to use “Suits” as a way to command attention for their product, tweeting that they would provide a hefty sum if the Duchess appeared on “Suits” with their product for five seconds.
“Att. Steve Burke [NBCUniversal Chairman]: We are again offering you 5 million $ for a 5 sec. Appearance of Meghan Markle with our biological Botox gel BIOTULIN in your TV series ‘Suits,” the German company wrote.
The offer, if Markle was interested in taking it, however, isn’t one that would come to fruition since the series wrapped in 2019. Of course, it doesn’t mean other offers aren’t on the table for the Duchess, or that her agent isn’t trying to set her up with a return to acting in a blockbuster film.
In fact, The Mail on Sunday reported in February that her agent had his eye on a Superhero film for her and having her join an ensemble cast.
“He’s actively seeking such a movie for her,” a source told the publication. “He’s saying she is available and open to the best offers.”
The Duchess reportedly already did a voiceover for Disney, but that it is a move for charity, and was not something she took a paycheck for.
There have also been rumors that suggested that if the Duchess did return to acting, that she would consider starring in a romantic comedy as well.
