Meghan, 39, was even said to have been considered as the state’s replacement senator after Kamala Harris became the new US Vice President, before the role went elsewhere.
Democratic Party strategist Mike Trujillo suggested that Meghan and Prince Harry’s Archewell Foundation could provide a “vehicle” for her to move into politics.
He said: “Schwarzenegger had a big after-school foundation. That’s what introduced him to politics.”
He and other strategists also welcomed the royal couple’s visit with California’s current governor, Gavin Newsom, as revealed by The Sun on Sunday last week.
