Meghan Markle‘s first job after leaving the royal family has been announced.
The Duchess of Sussex has gone back to her acting roots and lent her voice to Disneynature documentary, Elephant.

As the Duchess undertook the role while she was still a “working royal”, she may have violated protocol, causing fury amongst the family.
Prince Harry and Meghan officially step down from their royal roles on March 31, with the doco coming out just days later.
However, a royal expert has spoken out and assured fans that Meghan didn’t accept a paycheque for her role.
“It’s worth noting that this project took place before Meghan officially stepped down as a member of the Royal Family,” royal expert Charlie Lankston told Access Hollywood.
“Now that date is March 31 and this documentary is due to come out on April 3.
Ms Lankston continued: “This documentary has been made in collaboration with a very important charity that is based out of Africa.
“Harry and Meghan both have a connection to this charity.
“They went to Botswana back in 2017, all those years ago.
“They actually worked with the elephants there, they got to meet them up close and personally, they got to see what goes into caring for them.”
The royal commentator added: “So this is a project that is actually very close to Meghan’s heart.
“But it is important to note that she is doing a voice-over for Disney.
“I’m sure many royal fans will remember that viral clip of Prince Harry talking to the Disney head Bob Iger and saying to him ‘my wife is very interested in doing a job with you, she’s good at voiceovers’ so it looks like Harry’s strong-arming worked.”
The Duchess of Sussex’s new project will benefit Elephants Without Borders and was shot before she and husband Prince Harry made the decision to step down as senior members of the royal family.
“Elephant” looks at the story of African elephant Shani and her son Jomo as they journey across the Kalahari Desert.
The new doco will debut on April 3 on Disney+ along with a documentary about dolphins narrated by actress Natalie Portman.
The news comes after Meghan’s nickname on the set of her former show Suits was revealed.
Royal commentator Omid Scobie spoke on Vice’s Vice Versa: Meghan Markle Escaping The Crown podcast, Omid where he spilled the tea.
The Duchess, 38, who played the role of Rachel Zane on the legal drama between 2011 and 2017, was reportedly called ‘Meghan gets s*** done’ by her fellow cast members.
