Meghan Markle would break royal family’s ‘golden rule’ with rumored politics career: ‘It would impact Harry’

Meghan Markle risks breaking the royal family’s “golden rule” with her rumored dip into politics.

The Duchess of Sussex, 42, has reportedly been forging connections with top Democrats since quitting royal life and moving back home to the US in 2020.

And reports of a potential political career were kicked into high gear after President Biden’s sister, Valerie Biden Owens, reportedly “endorsed” Markle as a woman she would back for the White House.

But if the “Suits” alum was to venture out into the political sphere, the move would not only upset the Firm but affect her husband, Prince Harry, negatively.

“The royals don’t get involved in politics and they never have, it’s always been a golden rule,” Grant Harrold, who worked for Charles for seven years when he was the Prince of Wales, exclusively told The Post.

“If Meghan does — they are senior members of the royal family, despite not being working members of the family, so it wouldn’t be advisable.”

Harrold noted that the Duke of Sussex, 39, could lose his last remaining royal post as Counsellor of State if his wife attempted to establish herself in the governmental arena.

“I think it could have an impact on Harry’s status as a counsellor of state — if the King is unable to perform his duties, Harry can be called up to step in,” Harrold said on behalf of Fruity Slots.

“However, if his wife is involved in politics, I think that could affect that as usually they’re not allowed to have any involvement in politics.”

“If Meghan does go into politics, it’ll be interesting to see the impact it has on her husband,” he added.

If the former actress was to try her hand at getting her foot in the door at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., it wouldn’t be the first time a Hollywood star set their sights on politics.

Actors including Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ronald Reagan established themselves in the political sphere after successful stints on the silver screen.

The bodybuilder, 76, served as the 38th governor of California from 2003 to 2011, and Reagan starred in several Tinseltown features in the 1930s before becoming the 40th US president.

Harrold’s comments echo that of Paul Burrell, who last week suggested that the duchess is keeping her “eye on politics.”

“I’ve always said Meghan has her eye on a bigger gain; this isn’t the bigger gain. I’ve always said she has had her eye on politics,” the late Princess Diana’s former butler said.

“She is trying everything she can to make as much money as she can to support their lifestyle.”

He continued, “Again, they are going against the royal family’s wishes. Queen Elizabeth specifically said ‘do not use your royal titles for commercial gain’ and that is exactly what they are doing.”

“They are making up their own rules as they go along. As long as they can make money they will try everything,” Burrell added.
