The Duchess of Sussex has been quietly building a formidable North American support network of PR experts, lawyers, and agents to manage her public image and future ventures, according to reports. Despite being separated from Prince Harry by 5,000 miles and amid ongoing media scrutiny, Meghan has been actively engaging with charitable organizations in Vancouver.
This week, she made a last-minute visit to the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre, arranged via a private email from her assistant. Photographs of the meeting were widely circulated. Security concerns prevented her from entering the shelter itself, but she met staff at their offices. Two days later, she attended another women's group event, discussing 'climate justice for girls'.
The Sussexes have assembled a team of high-profile professionals to orchestrate their future. Sunshine Sachs, a U.S. PR firm known for representing A-list clients like Leonardo DiCaprio, was hired last year. Its founder, Ken Sunshine, previously defended Harvey Weinstein. The firm has been accused of using 'bare-knuckle tactics' and is reportedly now Meghan's primary PR contact, leaving Palace spokesmen 'out of the loop'.
Other key figures include Sara Latham, a former senior advisor to Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, as head of communications. Hollywood agent Nick Collins of The Gersh Agency is filtering film, TV, and philanthropy opportunities, while business manager Andrew Meyer and LA lawyer Rick are also involved. Collins, a friend from Meghan's Suits days, is negotiating a publishing deal for a children's book.
Amazon, Facebook, and Apple TV have all expressed interest in working with the couple. Meghan's team is expected to maximize her revenue through these ventures, drawing on her entertainment industry experience.
