Meghan Markle Still Has One Active Social Media Account
Meghan Markle, who’s set to marry Prince Harry in May, officially deleted her social media platforms on Tuesday, after being inactive on the services for months.
The news first broke when Twitter account Meghans Mirror, which shares news of the former actress’ life, posted a screenshot of the “Suits” star’s Instagram account, which was no longer available. With Markle’s Twitter, Instagram and Facebook pages down, fans were a bit upset that all of her social media accounts were gone, but there is still one left.
Likely in an oversight, the future member of the British royal family did not deactivate her Snapchat account. Her page is still very much alive and the former actress is able to be added as a friend under the username “meghanmarkle.”
It wasn’t until June 2016 that the “Suits” star really got the hang of the social media app and shared it all with her followers.
“Okay guys...I finally figured out #snapchat,” she tweeted on June 28, 2016. “Or so I think...come follow my fun at @Wimbledon today.”
She posted an image of her Snapchat username and photo right along with the tweet, which also showed that her account only had two points, which meant she was very new to the account and had barely used it. She changed it that day, though, with snaps from Wimbledon, the tennis Grand Slam tournament in London. How fitting.
One fan congratulated her on learning how to use the platform, tweeting a screenshot of one of her snaps from the sporting event, along with the caption, “You did it!”
Flash-forward a year and a half later and it’s now the only social media platform she has left. This all is just the latest step in the new chapter of her life, as she leaves her acting world behind and moves forward as the almost-newest member of British royalty.
“Ms. Markle is grateful to everyone who has followed her social media accounts over the years,” a source told ABC News. “However, as she has not used them for some time she has taken the decision to close them.”
It’s only a matter of time until she decides to take down her Snapchat, too, which means fans should get their fill of having her as a friend on the platform before it’s gone.
