Meghan Markle makes huge move

Meghan Markle is stepping further into her desired venture as an entrepreneur – a move that has nothing to do with Prince Harry. In a recent interview with Fortune, Meghan shared that she is an angel investor in the healthcare company Midi Health.

Meghan, 43, has joined the company’s £48million [$63m] Series B round last March, a source close to the matter recently told TechCrunch. The company provides a virtual care clinic where women aged 35 or over can speak to experts in perimenopause, menopause and other health-related concerns. Confirmed in September 2024, Midi Health shared that it had attracted interest from 80 investors – who had paid between £8,000 and £385,000.

As reported by HELLO!, an “angel investor” is a high net-worth individual who provides money for a start-up company, sometimes in exchange for equity in the company.

With the company only hosting female investors, others include the likes of comedian Amy Schumer and Connie Britton.

Speaking to Fortune earlier this month, Meghan added: “Women need to see that they can build. Women don’t need to be afraid to talk about finance and I think the more financial literacy we have, the stronger we’re going to be.”

Discussing making scrunchies, the mother-of-two added: “I’d buy the remnants of fabric from the fabric store and elastics, and use my little home sewing machine to make scrunchies and sell them.”

This comes just one week after Meghan officially launched her brand, As Ever.

Less than an hour after the website went live, Meghan appeared back on Instagram to thank her fans after all eight products, that were availabile to buy at the time, sold out.

She wrote, “Our shelves may be empty, but my heart is full! We sold out in less than one hour and I can’t thank you enough…for celebrating, purchasing, sharing, and believing. It’s just the start @aseverofficial. Here we go!”
