Meghan Markle defended after dividing fans with her surprise return to acting
Meghan Markle has been defended for her Instagram advert after dividing royal experts and fans.
The Duchess of Sussex was seen handing out cups of coffee to the co-owner of Clevr Blends, taking phone calls, fist-bumping her colleagues and typing away at a computer in the advert for the coffee company she invests in. Royal fans took to X, formerly Twitter to share their thoughts on seeing Meghan back on their screens.
One wrote: "A+ marketing from #clevrblends Love to see Meg having fun in front of the camera again. I’ve missed her on my screen." While a second added: "She was the brand first investor and she is sticking with them… That’s how loyal #MeghanMarkle is. Love to hear her smile btw."

One put: "Hahaha! This video is so contrived. Looks more like a project straight out of middle school." And another chimed in: "Oh yes the comeback - a coffee ad where she has no lines and a total of 20 sec in 3 different scenes. Yep that’s winning thriving alright."
A third commented: "I’m not a MM fan but honestly, I don’t think much of this. Her laugh at end is actually funny & genuine." Of course, Meghan is no stranger to the acting world, having starred in Netflix's legal drama Suits in a recurring role as Rachel Zane.
Meghan was praised for doing her friend a favour (SplashNews.com)Royal commentator Christine Hamilton has now surprisingly jumped to Meghan's defence, telling GB News: "I can't believe I'm doing this, I'm about to defend Meghan Markle. She's invested in this company.
"Everything about this company puts my hair on end, it's one of the most ghastly, wokey, ghastly things. The very way they call it Clevr, for goodness sake," she added. "It's all about spreading love and all this sort of business.
"But she's a friend of that person, she hasn't done that as a job, she's done it as a favour," Christine continued before adding: "She's not royal. The one thing she's not is royalty. Of course she shouldn't really do it, but I don't think it's a massive big deal."
