Oprah Winfrey and Megan Markle could battle to replace Dianne Feinstein

Meghan Markle and close pal Oprah Winfrey could battle it out for votes. After the sad announcement that California Senator Diane Feinstein had died at 90 on Friday, all eyes went straight to California Governor Gavin Newsom, who is tasked with filling the vacant seat. One of the names reportedly being floated around was Meghan, who has been very open about her passion for politics. The Duchess of Sussex has also reportedly been getting guidance from Governor Newsom. “Meghan is definitely a long shot but in the craziness that is US politics these days it’s not an impossibility,’ a major Democratic donor told the Mail on Sunday “Crazier things have happened.” For all the latest on news, politics, sports, and showbiz from the USA, go to Daily Express US.
