Wait, What? Meghan Markle Reportedly Considered Applying to Be on ‘The Bachelor’

Before she was the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle was…a potential Bachelor contestant? Mind. Blown.

According to Bachelor(ette) creator Mike Fleiss, the newest royal “seriously considered” applying to be a part of Bachelor Nation fresh off her stint on Deal or No Deal. Fleiss took to Instagram to dish about the very surprising details.

So had she not sustained her livelihood via freelance calligraphy and met Prince Harry, Meghan Markle could have been vying for a rose and a doomed relationship?

She might have missed out on some free Fit Tea and embarrassing drunken feuds, but things seem to have turned out all right for her.
