Ange keen to sign Meghan
SHE’S Hollywood royalty and Angelina Jolie looks set to rub shoulders with the real deal now she’s recruiting Meghan Markle to join forces with her.
The actress, who flew into London on Thursday in the hubbub of today’s royal wedding, is said to want the former Suits star to be part of the Preventing Sexual Violence Initiative – a charity Ange founded with the British Government in 2012.
The Tomb Raider star believes that Meghan, 36, will be a fabulous ambassador for the organisation, which raises awareness about sexual violence against women, men, girls and boys in situations of armed conflict.
“Angelina thinks Meghan will be the perfect fit as she’ll not only bring more attention to the cause but is genuinely passionate about activism,” a source tells Day & Night. “Meghan has admired Angelina as a campaigner and like her is particularly interested in women’s rights and child welfare. She has already been assigned charities to work with but the door isn’t shut.” Our source adds that the pair have had correspondence through their respective teams and hope to have a meeting at some point over the next few months.
Meghan will also be noting that 42-year-old Angelina comes “Queen Elizabeth approved”. The Oscar winner, who is in the UK capital for work, not today’s nuptials, received an honorary damehood from the at Buckingham Palace for services to UK foreign policy and her campaign to end sexual violence in war zones.
