A new biography about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle has revealed the former actress used to write a secret blog.

Before she joined the royal family, the Duchess of Sussex ran a successful lifestyle blog called The Tig – but she also penned another blog anonymously.

According to Finding Freedom, which was released earlier this week, Meghan penned a secret blog called The Working Actress from 2010 to 2012, which detailed the “pitfalls and triumphs of struggling to make it in Hollywood”.

The book’s authors Omid Scobie and Carolyn Durand wrote: “The blog captured the heartfelt moments of joy when she booked a job and the despair and rejection actors felt each felt time a role was lost in an industry often driven by appearance rather than by talent.”

“While [Meghan] never publicly acknowledged authorship of the popular blog, it was one of the industry’s worst-kept secrets that she was the face behind it – and she quickly became recognised for its clever advice and honest anecdotes.”

Meghan would have written the blog while she starred in US legal drama Suits, which premiered in 2011.

Just a few months before her engagement to Prince Harry was made public in November 2017, Meghan shut down her popular lifestyle blog The Tig.

Not long after, Meghan deactivated all of her public social media accounts, as she prepared to marry Prince Harry in May 2018.
