Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly contemplating a return to her acting career, according to a report from Life & Style.

Sources suggest that Meghan, known for her role in the popular TV series “Suits” from 2011 to 2018, is exploring offers to rekindle her acting career.

The resurgence of “Suits” in reruns has generated newfound interest in Meghan’s acting abilities. The source claims that Meghan is “planning an acting comeback” and that fans are expressing a demand to see her on screen again.

“Suits” saw a surge in viewership on Netflix in June, becoming the most-watched show for the week and setting records for the most-watched acquired series.

Several offers

The source explains that Meghan had received several offers over the past five years but turned them down as she was focused on adapting to royal life and later forging a new path in Hollywood with Prince Harry. However, with other opportunities dwindling, she is actively seeking roles and talking to prominent directors and producers, with Prince Harry’s full support.

Meghan is reportedly approaching her comeback strategically, with a desire to secure a significant dramatic film role and even harbors dreams of an Oscar.

While it’s possible Prince Harry could accompany her to red-carpet events, it’s unlikely that he would co-star with her on screen, as he is concerned about potential ridicule.

U.S. and Israel launch major military operation against Iran; tensions rise as conflict escalates, impacting global markets.

The United States and Israel have launched a sweeping military operation against Iran, striking leadership targets and more than 500 military sites in what President Trump has dubbed Operation Epic Fury.

Explosions have rocked Tehran, with civilians fleeing the capital as U.S. sea and air assets carry out sustained attacks. Washington says the mission is designed to prevent a nuclear armed Iran and has even called on Iranians to rise up against the regime.

Iran has retaliated with a barrage of missiles and drones targeting Israel and U.S. bases across the region, including in Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain. While many projectiles were intercepted, a U.S. base in Bahrain sustained damage.

Gulf states long seen as stable hubs for global business are now directly in the firing line, raising fears of a wider regional war.

Oil prices are climbing and tankers are diverting from the Strait of Hormuz as markets react to the escalating conflict. U.S. aircraft carriers, advanced fighter jets and missile destroyers remain in position, signalling more strikes could follow.

With global leaders scrambling diplomatically, the world is watching to see whether this spirals further or shifts back to negotiations.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has instructed ships to avoid the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial shipping lane linking to the Persian Gulf. About a hundred merchant vessels transit the strait daily, according to the U.S.Tensions have escalated recently as the U.S. increased military presence in the region and Iran issued threats. Western nations are concerned about Iran potentially laying sea mines to disrupt commercial traffic. Currently, no evidence suggests Iran has mined the strait.

Ships have been repeatedly warned against entering the strait, as stated by crews in the area and the European Union’s naval command, Aspides. On Saturday, dozens of tankers diverted, with some seeking refuge in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates while others opted to steer clear of the region, as reported by oil brokers and shipowners.

Shipping Concerns

Tensions continue to impact shipping operations as carriers remain cautious in the Gulf region.

Tanker crews reported hearing explosions near Iran’s Kharg Island, which is vital for the country’s oil exports, as it handles 90% of its crude oil shipments.
