Publication and New Netflix Executive Producer Deal On June 8, 2021, Meghan Markle published her first children’s book, “The Bench.” “The Bench” started off as a poem Markle wrote for Prince Harry for Father’s Day about his relationship with their son, Archie, and was later turned into a full-fledged children’s book. In less than a week after its release, “The Bench” became a No. 1 New York Times bestseller. “While this poem began as a love letter to my husband and son, I’m encouraged to see that its universal themes of love, representation, and inclusivity are resonating with communities everywhere,” Markle wrote in a statement on the Archewell website, thanking readers for making the book a bestseller. On July 14, 2021, it was announced that Meghan Markle will serve as an executive producer for the Netflix children’s series “Pearl.” “Like many girls her age, our heroine Pearl is on a journey of self-discovery as she tries to overcome life’s daily challenges,” Markle said in a statement. “I’m thrilled that Archewell Productions, partnered with the powerhouse platform of Netflix, and these incredible producers, will together bring you this new animated series, which celebrates extraordinary women throughout history,” she continued. “David Furnish and I have been eager to bring this special series to light, and I am delighted we are able to announce it today.” Though Markle has no official plans to act, the California native appears to have finally come full circle from her days as a working actress to now a powerful voice at a major production company. www.glamsquadmagazine.com 21
