Meghan Markle made an appearance at Oprah Winfrey’s book club event in California last night, but the spotlight wasn’t only on her. As the Duchess of Sussex took the stage, her husband Prince Harry’s controversial memoir, Spare, stood front and center in the bookstore, making sure the royal drama wasn’t far from anyone’s mind. It was a gathering of the stars, but the presence of Spare on the eve of Queen Elizabeth II’sdeath anniversary set a poignant tone for the evening.

The book club, held at the newly opened Godmothers bookstore in Summerland, was just a few miles from Meghan and Harry’s Montecito mansion. The event, hosted by Oprah, saw a mix of A-listers and spiritual figures, including Marco Leone and Dr. Jennifer Freed, who took to social media to praise Meghan’s presence. But all eyes were glued to the “hometown hero” shelf, where Harry’s memoir held prime real estate, solidifying his new identity in California.

While Meghan delivered her speech, much of the audience was left in the dark about its content, but that didn’t stop the applause and admiration. Psychic medium Laura Lynne Jackson called her “light-filled,” further cementing the idea that Meghan is seen as more than just a former royal. Her star power was felt, not just by the celebrity crowd, but also by the bookstore itself, which seemed to bask in the glow of the royal couple’s new identity as local icons.

The timing of Meghan’s appearance wasn’t lost on anyone either. The second anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s death loomed large, a stark reminder of the seismic shifts within the royal family. Harry’s memoir, which tore down the walls of royal privacy, played a symbolic role in the evening as it sat prominently displayed. Godmothers bookstore owner Jennifer Rudolph Walsh made it clear-Harry and Meghan were not just customers; they were celebrated as local legends.

It wasn’t just Harry’s memoir on display though. Meghan’s children’s book, The Bench, shared space on the shelf, a nod to her literary ventures. The bookstore’s reverence for “local authors” is more than just a nod to proximity; it speaks to the couple’s shift from royalty to American cultural figures. This event, more than anything, felt like a celebration of their rebranding.

Oprah’s role in the Sussexes’ California reinvention;
Oprah, a longtime friend of Meghan and Harry, has been instrumental in this narrative shift. From her attending their royal wedding in 2018 to hosting their infamous tell-all interview in 2021, Oprah has helped redefine their roles in the public eye. Now, as neighbors in Montecito, their bond seems tighter than ever. It’s no wonder Meghan was one of the key speakers at Oprah’s event, further cementing their dynamic duo status in California’s elite circles.

While the night focused on books, the underlying drama of Harry’s royal departure was palpable. The couple’s move to America in 2020, which they claimed was for privacy, has ironically kept them in the headlines. And as they stand tall in their new world, the tension between their past lives in the UK and their current lives in the US continues to be a central narrative.

For Harry, Spare represented his story, unfiltered and unapologetic. The memoir revealed the depths of his struggles within the royal family, and the book’s presence at last night’s event served as a reminder of the couple’s tumultuous journey. The memoir didn’t just sit on the shelf-it was a statement piece, a symbol of their new identity.

As the night came to a close, one thing was clear-Meghan and Harry have firmly planted themselves in their new California life. Whether as authors, speakers, or just “hometown heroes,” the Sussexes are navigating their post-royal journey with calculated precision, always with a hint of royal intrigue lingering in the background.
