Markle was an active Instagram user during her time on the hit drama “Suits.” However, she stepped away from social media when her relationship with Prince Harry became public. Over the years, Markle has shared her reasons for leaving, citing heavy online bullying.

Her new Instagram account has comments turned off, likely as a way to focus attention on her content while minimizing negativity.
