Meghan Markle has raised eyebrows by quietly renewing the trademark for her lifestyle blog, The Tig.
The former actress’ website was a huge success, but Meghan shut the blog down back in 2017 – disappointing a lot of her loyal readers.
But according to The Sun, Meghan’s business manager Andrew Meyer filed documents in the US using a company called Frim Fram to keep rights to ‘The Tig’ until at least 2021.
A website named Tigtots is also listed under Frim Fram, which could be aimed at mothers.
A source said: “It’s fascinating Meghan’s business manager has ensured she keeps The Tig for a few more years at least.”
“Of course it’s understandable she wouldn’t want an entrepreneur using the name without her involvement.”
“But given her desire to be a different type of royal — pushing her own causes using digital and social media — it’s not out of the question she’d think The Tig could play an important role.”
The trademark news has sparked rumours that Meghan is set to relaunch The Tig.
However, her spokeswoman downplayed the rumours by telling the newspaper: “The lasting trademark is to prevent false branding, to avoid others purporting to be the Duchess or affiliated with her.”
