Meghan Markle is reportedly hoping to join the coveted billionare’s club.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, has rolled out a series of new businesses in recent weeks, from her new Netflix show and lifestyle brand to a shiny new podcast and digital storefront.

As her new business ventures begin to take shape, it appears as though the “Suits” alum is “convinced” that her net worth will grow accordingly, according to the Telegraph.

A well-placed source told the outlet that the former working royal “thinks she’s going to be a billionaire” — and that the team she’s assembled will no doubt help her get there.

King Charles and Queen Camilla hosted a star-studded reception at Clarence House Tuesday for the launch of Her Majesty's Reading Room medal. 

Helena Bonham Carter, Sigourney Weaver, Richard E. Grant, Joanna Lumley, and Antony Horowitz were among the stars in attendance to celebrate those who are championing literature in local communities. 

Speaking at the reception, Camilla, 77, said that the ultimate mission statement of her organization is to "make life better."

"Through literature, we experience life through another's eyes, we are comforted, strengthened, we laugh, we cry, we travel to different lands, and we escape the real world," she said, as the king, 76, watched proudly.

"In short, books and those who create them, make life better…much better – so thank you!"

Other attendees included the Duchess of Gloucester, Lady Sarah Chatto, the Queen's children Laura Lopes and Tom Parker-Bowles, and her sister Annabel Elliot.

Meghan Markle rocked a "Mama" T-shirt in a new Instagram post, in which she supported her longtime pal's organization.

On Tuesday, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, posted a photo of her with her pet beagle, Mia -- whom she and husband Prince Harry adopted in 2022.

"Proudly supporting @allianceofmoms and the powerful work they do to support moms and their children," she captioned her image, referencing her friend Kelly McKee Zajfen's charity.

"Well done @_heartmom_, for your selfless love of so many — the world is better with you in it ❤️."

In the snap, the "Suits" alum is seen wearing a T-shirt from Zajfen's charity's Mother's Day range, which raises funds for young pregnant women living in foster care in LA.

Markle has long supported her bestie, who endured the unthinkable in 2022 when her son George died at age 9.

King Charles and Queen Camilla's planned visit to the Vatican has been put on the back burner after doctors advised Pope Francis to take an extended period of rest following his days-long hospitalization.

The royal couple were due to meet with His Holiness next month, but their visit has now been postponed to allow the Pope recover from his recent bout with pneumonia.

"The King and Queen’s state visit to the Holy See has been postponed by mutual agreement, as medical advice has now suggested that Pope Francis would benefit from an extended period of rest and recuperation," Buckingham Palace said in a statement.

“Their Majesties send the Pope their best wishes for his convalescence and look forward to visiting him in the Holy See once he has recovered.”

Their Majesties are still going ahead with their tour of Italy, but their program has been slightly tweaked to accommodate the Pope's request.

It’s w̶i̶n̶e̶ whine o’clock somewhere.

Meghan Markle might have some friendly royal competition as Prince Harry’s cousins have announced their new rosé wine range that stands to rival her lifestyle brand, As Ever.

While she is yet to release her rebranded business venture, the Duchess of Sussex has previously teased a future line of rosé wine as part of her company’s goods.

Now, Lady Eliza and Lady Amelia Spencer — nieces of the late Princess Diana — have announced that their Lala V wine range will be launching this summer.

“There’s something really special in the works that Eliza and I are launching this summer,” Lady Amelia told the Daily Mail.

“We’ve been working on a rosé brand called Lala V – it’s a play on Eliza’s childhood nickname Lala and the French word for life, vie.”

The daughters of Earl Spencer said the name carries significant meaning.

Meghan Markle has been accused of “monetizing the monarchy” after creating a ShopMy page that allows her to earn commission on affiliate links she posts.

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, took to social media Monday to reveal that she will be posting links to her favorite outfits — including those she wore in her Netflix series, “With Love, Meghan.”

“Many of you have asked, so here you go! A little shopping to start the week. More to come. Link in bio ❤️,” the “Suits” alum wrote on her Instagram Story.

Markle describes her just-launched page as “a handpicked and curated collection of the things I love,” and notes that she’s eligible to collect commissions from any purchases made via the platform.

The online closet featured mostly designer pieces, including pricy linen shirts, sweaters, sunglasses and handbags. Most items boasted neutral shades like beige, brown, white, black and navy blue. 

While prices vary, the vast majority of the listed items boast eye-popping price tags.

These include a $1,415 beige Loro Piana cashmere crewneck, a $1,350 Heidi Merrick dress, Brochu Walker pants priced at $388, and a gold Maya Brenner Happiness Retreat citrine stone necklace, made in collaboration with Markle’s “Suits” co-star Abigail Spencer, for $500 a pop.

Eagled-eyed users noticed that Markle labeled the online store under her royal title, “Meghan, Duchess of Sussex” — just weeks after scolding pal Mindy Kaling for calling her Meghan Markle, saying her last name is now “Sussex.”

Doth clothes maketh the royal woman?

Kate Middleton is being praised for excelling at the "art of sartorial diplomacy," following in the footsteps of her late grandmother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth II.

Just like the Queen — who, in matters of fashion, lived by the motto, "You have to be seen to be believed" — the Princess of Wales, 42, frequently opts for monochromatic looks in bold colors so as to stand out and be clearly visible in public.

"This philosophy, which shaped the Queen’s wardrobe for decades, ensured that she remained instantly recognizable in a crowd," style expert Lisa Talbot explained to the Daily Mail in an article published Monday. 

"Now, the Princess of Wales is carrying this torch, embracing vibrant block colors that balance elegance with visibility, an approach that is both strategic and symbolic.”

"This wasn’t just a personal preference; it was a deliberate choice to connect with the public, ensuring that even those at the back of a vast crowd could catch a glimpse of their monarch," Talbot continued.

"Princess Kate has adopted the same formula, most recently seen at the St. Patrick’s Day parade and the Commonwealth Day Service, where her tailored, monochrome outfits commanded attention without the need for embellishment. Her ability to blend tradition with modernity is a testament to her understanding of royal style as a tool for communication.”

Talbot added that "head-to-toe block color" photographs well and makes the focal point on her outings. But Kate is also "subtly reinforcing a visual connection to the Queen, honoring her legacy while making the style her own," the stylist argued.

"Through carefully considered tailoring and contemporary accessories, she modernizes the look, making it relevant to today’s fashion landscape while maintaining the regal polish that royal watchers expect."

Royal closet raiders rejoice.

Meghan Markle has created her own ShopMy page, where fans of her sartorial choices can snag some of the same items the duchess has in her own wardrobe.

The former "Suits" star, 43, announced the page's launch via her Instagram Story on Monday.

"Many of you have asked, so here you go! A little shopping to start the week. More to come. Link in bio," she wrote across a video showing some of the items she selected to share. She also linked out on the Story, captioning the link, "Shop My Closet."

At the top of her ShopMy page, Markle described the site as "a handpicked and curated collection of the things I love — I hope you enjoy them!"

She also said, "*Please note, some products may contain commissionable links*."

Meghan's ShopMy wares reflect her documented love of neutrals and elevated basic pieces, with brands ranging from J.Crew and Uniqlo to Loro Piana.

ShopMy describes itself as a company that allows prominent individuals to "monetize your influence" using associate links.

Meghan Markle has promised to dive into some major “girl talk” as she dropped the trailer for her new podcast, “Confessions of a Female Founder.”

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, unveiled her rebranded podcast to the world earlier this month after inking a deal with Lemonada Media in Feb. 2024.

The new deal took place after Spotify decided not to renew the steep $20 million contract for a second season of her now-defunct podcast, “Archetypes.”

On Tuesday, the “Suits” alum’s preview was premiered by People, in which Markle tells fans what they can expect from the eight weekly episodes, out on April 8.

“I’m Meghan, and this is Confessions of a Female Founder, a show where I chat with female entrepreneurs and friends about the sleepless nights, the lessons learned and the laser focus that got them to where they are today,” the former working royal said in the clip.

“We’re diving into the highs — and the lows — and the kind of advice that turns small ideas into billion-dollar businesses. And of course, we’re going to get some girl talk!”

A very Mary birthday.

Prince William gave beloved baking queen Mary Berry a special birthday shout out that brought the former "Great British Bake Off" host in tears.

Appearing on a special episode of the BBC's "The One Show" in honor of her 90th birthday on Monday, Berry was caught off guard when co-host Alex Jones (not that Alex Jones) introduced a video message from "somebody very special who says that you've taught him everything he knows about baking."

“I want to wish you a very happy 90th birthday,” the Prince of Wales, 42, said. “You are a true national treasure, and we’ve loved working with you over the years. Have a fantastic day today."

He then quipped, "I dread to think who’s cooking your cake and the criticism they might get, but good luck and I hope it goes really well."

A teary-eyed Berry couldn't hold back her emotions, saying, “What an honor.”

Prince William reshared a clip of the moment posted by the "The One Show."

“Happy birthday, Dame Mary!" the prince wrote in an Instagram Story alongside the video.

As William mentioned, he and his wife Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, have worked with Berry before on multiple occasions, including joining Berry on a Christmas episode of "The Great British Bake Off" in 2019.

Meghan Markle is showing off her husband’s videography skills and reminding her followers of the simple but sweet nickname she has for him. 

The Duchess of Sussex, 43, shared a video of birds flying in a united V formation against a clear blue sky on her Instagram Story Monday. 

“Flying into the week with my family,” she wrote in a caption alongside the clip, which was recorded by her husband, Prince Harry. 

“Thanks to my H for capturing this!” Markle added in parentheses, using one of her nicknames for her husband, 40. 

The former “Suits” star shared the nickname with the public for the first time in 2019 during an interview for ITV’s documentary "Harry & Meghan: An African Journey."

Reflecting on her discussions with Harry about media gossip, Markle said, "I have said for a long time to H, that's what I call him, 'It's not enough to just survive something. That's not the point of life. You have got to thrive. You have got to feel happy.'"

Harry has also revealed that he also uses an initial to refer to his spouse. In a 2021 appearance on James Corden's late night show, Corden took Harry’s phone to FaceTime Meghan, and, while searching for her contact, asked, “How do I find the Duchess?”

Harry responded, “M.”

In the same segment, Meghan revealed that she sometimes calls her husband “Haz.”

After chatting with Corden through FaceTime, Meghan casually asked Harry, “Haz, how’s your tour of L.A. going?”

Corden, taken aback, quipped, “Haz? I didn’t know we were calling you 'Haz' now.”

These royal locks are no red hair-ing.

Meghan Markle took to Instagram Monday to share a sweet photo with her and Prince Harry's two children, five-year-old son Prince Archie and three-year-old daughter Princess Lilibet, providing another glimpse of the fiery red hair both children inherited from their father.

"Every day is a love story," Markle, 43, wrote along with a dove emoji in the caption of the snap, which was a joint post on her personal Instagram account and that of her new lifestyle brand, As ever.

The photo shows the Duchess and her two kids from the back, in what appears to be their family garden. The former "Suits" star holds Lilibet (who also goes by Lili) tight to her hip with her left arm while Archie hugs her right leg.

Lili wears a straw sunhat — just like mom Meghan — and carries a small wicker basket.

Harry, 40, revealed to Stephen Colbert in 2023 that the famous ginger locks he passed on to his children come from his mother, the late Diana, Princess of Wales.

"The ginger gene is a strong one," Harry said.

He also mentioned the strength of the Spencer family gene, referring to his mother's family.

"I actually really, genuinely thought at the beginning of my relationship [with Meghan] that should this go the distance and we have kids that there's no way the ginger gene will stand up to my wife's genes, but I was wrong! Go gingers," he proudly shared.
