Meghan Markle's rumored Dior deal 'a logical step' to 'cash in' before her star fades, author claims

foxnews.com:

After parting ways with Spotify, Meghan Markle is allegedly seeking a deal made fit for a duchess — and she may have her eyes set on one couture house.

An unnamed Beverly Hills socialite alleged to The Mail on Sunday that the Duchess of Sussex is in the process of penning a deal with Dior to "re-invent" her image.The source insisted that the possible bid from her talent agency, William Morris Endeavor, is "all anyone is talking about." A spokesperson for the 41-year-old, WME and Dior didn’t immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment. "Meghan and Dior would seem like a logical fit," Christopher Andersen, author of "The King," told Fox News Digital. "It's a very tentative first step into the endorsement world and a very upscale one at that." "Appearing in glossy ads for a haute couture house like Dior isn't likely to shake things up the way the Duchess of York did when she started doing commercials for Weight Watchers," Andersen shared. "By the way, Fergie also had endorsement deals with Wedgwood, Avon, and Charles Schwab - not to mention a whole series of book and TV deals - so there's precedent for what the Sussexes are doing." Andersen noted that if the mother of two has chosen "to cash in" following her royal exit, then it’s smart to do just that before her "star begins to fade." "And why not go all the way?" he argued. "It's not hard to imagine Meghan as the face of L’Oréal or even Harry flashing a Rolex in one of those full-page ads in Vanity Fair or better yet, hawking a Cartier tank watch like the one his mother Princess Diana used to wear." But not so fast.

A source at the French fashion house denied rumors of an imminent deal to The Telegraph. According to the outlet, the source noted that.
