Meghan Markle might have left her acting career behind to become Prince Harry’s wife. But now it looks like the star may be making her way back to the world of acting after signing with WME earlier in the year. Meanwhile, the Duchess of Sussex has now sparked the speculation that she might be the inspiration for a character in Disney’s upcoming film, Wish. In fact, fans of the former actress are “convinced” that the character is based on her.

From being a real-life Duchess to maybe having a Disney princess shaped after her, the 42-year-old sure has a lot of reasons to be in the spotlight this time. Her fans claim that the star is the reason behind the look of Disney’s latest Princess Asha, as they share similar features and the resemblance truly is a bit uncanny. But with no confirmation of the situation, fans are only guessing at this point.
