Buckingham Palace rarely comments on stories in the press, but the recent reports surrounding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s future, specifically that the couple is working with a celebrity talent agency, prompted a swift denial from the royals.
Over the weekend, Sheeraz Inc., an endorsement firm that works with clients like Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Zendaya to arrange brand deals and appearances, posted an Instagram claiming to now be representing the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Alongside a photo of Harry and Meghan, they wrote, “Sheeraz, Inc is now taking appearance and endorsement requests for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle @sussexroyal Sheeraz, Inc clients from Middle East, India, US and Asia can send us official offers and we will take them directly to their representatives.”

The most confusing part? Despite Buckingham Palace telling The Sun that the reports are “categorically untrue,” the company is sticking to its story, insisting via Instagram Story that Meghan is definitely working with them. “Always remember Meghan Markle was an actress in Hollywood before becoming a Princess,” Sheeraz Inc.’s founder Sheeraz Hasan wrote.
“Now she is coming back to LA and of course I have been in contact with her inner team for brand and appearances deals as I have a global network of buyers for talent. When celebrities need global media or global brand opportunities, I always get the calls.” May we interject to add that this is a wild statement to make if it is, indeed, untrue.
As for the other reports that Meghan is set to make her Netflix return to star on her BFF Jessica Mulroney’s new bridal show, I Do, Redo, Mulroney’s husband stepped in to set the record straight. Taking to Twitter, Ben Mulroney denied the claims, writing, “Oh, for heaven’s sake, @pagesix. @CTV_PR told you yesterday that your facts were inaccurate. You ran the story anyway. So I’ll say this as clearly as I can: Meghan Markle is not appearing nor was she ever set to appear on my wife’s show.”
