Meghan Markle revealed as angel investor in celeb-backed menopause clinic — with up to $500k investment
Meghan Markle is opening her pocketbook and diving head-first into the menopause market.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, has reportedly made an angel investment in a women’s health startup company, Midi Health, that’s favored among the Hollywood elite.
The “Suits” alum in March joined an impressive roster of female investors in the healthcare startup, including comedian Amy Schumer, “White Lotus” star Connie Britton and fashion designer Tory Burch, TechCrunch reports.
Other notable financial backers in the $63 million investment effort include ex-Meta COO Sheryl Sandberg, soccer star Brandi Chastain and former Vice President Kamala Harris’ niece, Maya Harris.
Markle’s involvement is described as an “angel investor” — a high-net-worth individual who pumps cash into a business in exchange for equity.
The Post has reached out to Markle’s reps for comment.
The startup provides a virtual platform to women aged 35 and over who are experiencing menopause-related symptoms.
The company is notably comprised of 40% people of color.
Speaking to Fortune magazine earlier this week, the former actress — who is said to be building a business portfolio — urged women to speak up in conversations about finance.
“Women need to see that they can build,” she told the outlet. “Women don’t need to be afraid to talk about finance. And I think the more financial literacy we have, the stronger we’re going to be.”
In September 2024, the company announced that 80 high-profile investors had pumped between $10,000 and $500,000+ into the business during its investment round.
Midi Health announced that a “high-powered group of women leaders and icons spanning entertainment, professional sports, media, beauty and fashion, health and wellness, technology and business” have invested in the business.
The company noted that “top execs” from companies including OpenAI, Google, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Universal Music Group and Warner Media have joined the second investment round.
“Reflecting Midi’s focus on this demographic and the importance of culturally responsive care, the investor group includes women aged 35 to 60+ and 40% people of color,” the firm said in a statement.
Midi Health is covered in the US through a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO), a type of insurance plan that offers coverage through a network of healthcare providers.
According to its website, an initial virtual appointment boasts a price tag of $250 for “self-paying” patients, while follow-up appointments cost visitors $150 a pop.
Markle’s rumored investment adds to her ever-growing business portfolio, which boasts more than 10 investment efforts between her and husband Prince Harry.
The duo have reportedly pumped large sums of money into several US startups since quitting royal life and moving across the pond in 2020.
Markle’s investment pattern shows affinity for female-led businesses.
The mom of two has been a fan of coffee brand Clevr since its inception in 2016, and became its private investor in December 2020.
She also became an investor of her pal’s haircare brand Highbrow Hippie in November 2024.
In addition to her investment efforts, Markle is rolling out a series of money-making ventures of her own — including new Netflix show “With Love, Meghan”?and?lifestyle brand As Ever to a?shiny new podcast titled “Confessions of a Female Founder”?and?a digital ShopMy storefront.
