Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has delighted fans by making her much-awaited return to Instagram. After a five-year break, she launched her new account with the username @meghan, kicking off 2025 with a renewed social media presence.
Her debut post featured a simple yet elegant black-and-white video of a beach scene. In the clip, Meghan writes “2025” in the sand before smiling and running off-camera. Her profile picture, also in black and white, captures her humor and style, adding a personal touch to her Instagram.
This move comes after Meghan hinted at her return to social media during an interview with The Cut in 2022. At the time, she said, “I’m getting back… on Instagram.” Although she later seemed unsure about the decision, her fans can now celebrate as Meghan reconnects with her audience.
Before marrying Prince Harry in 2018, Meghan was active on social media. She had a personal Instagram account with over 3 million followers and ran a popular lifestyle blog, The Tig, where she shared her thoughts on food, travel, and fashion. She stepped away from these platforms in 2018 after announcing her engagement.
In 2019, Meghan and Harry launched their joint Instagram account, @SussexRoyal, to share updates about their royal engagements. However, the account became inactive in 2020 when they stepped back from their royal duties.
Since then, the couple has dedicated their efforts to the Archewell Foundation, focusing on meaningful projects through production hubs and charitable initiatives. Meghan’s return to Instagram reflects her desire to reconnect with her audience and share her life after royalty.
Fans worldwide are excited to see what Meghan will post next. Whether it’s updates about her work, personal moments, or inspirational content, her return to Instagram marks the beginning of a new chapter for the Duchess of Sussex.
