With Netflix show, Meghan Markle seeks ‘clean slate’ after ‘Duchess Difficult’ years
With Markle’s New Year’s Day post, public relations experts said that her ocean imagery and her all-white outfit were obviously chosen to show “purity” and a desire for a “metaphorical clean slate” in 2025 – following a challenging few years for her public image.
“The all-white attire screams ‘purity of reinvention’ while the ‘2025’ etched in the sand conveniently doubles as both a literal timestamp and a metaphorical clean slate,” said Mark Borkowski, a top U.K. P.R. expert told the Daily Mail.
“Meghan has gone for the classic cryptic performance art Instagram post,” Borkowski continued. “It’s a P.R. textbook example of someone signaling a new era, designed to intrigue and mystify.
“It’s a subtle power play, simultaneously fostering curiosity and establishing control.”
