There’s been speculation that Meghan envisions herself on the ballot spread after she hired a former member of Michelle Obama‘s communications team. Archewell’s audit revealed the Sussexes’ hired an Obama alum, and Russell Myers thinks the payment “gives you some indication about whether (Meghan) has political ambition.”

Aside from her proximity to the Obamas, in 2021 the Northwestern alum wrote a letter to Nancy Pelosi in an attempt to advocate for local residents.

“I’m not an elected official, and I’m not a politician. I am, like many, an engaged citizen and a parent,” Meghan wrote. “I’m writing to you on behalf of millions of American families who are using their voices to say that comprehensive paid leave should not be a place to compromise or negotiate.”
