Meghan Markle's Hollywood talent agency still represents the Duchess of Sussex, new reports have suggested, despite previous claims of a split.
A leading Hollywood talent agency has denied dropping Meghan following months of speculation about their professional relationship.
William Morris Endeavor (WME) told the Mail it is continuing to represent both the Duchess of Sussex, 43, and Archewell.
GB News has contacted WME for clarification.

This comes after insiders claimed the duchess had been "let go" for being "too demanding" and "difficult to work with".
WME, which represents A-list celebrities including Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Serena Williams, signed Meghan in 2023.
According to PageSix, Meghan has not met with WME's chief executive Ari Emanuel since January 2024, though she continues to meet with her day-to-day agents.
Sources told the publication that during her last meeting with Emanuel, the duchess had an "outburst" that reportedly left the agency boss "done with her".
Sources previously claimed that Meghan Markle had split from her talent agency
ReutersThe claims emerged amid broader allegations about the duchess's management style.
A source told The Hollywood Reporter: "Everyone's terrified of Meghan. She belittles people, she doesn't take advice."
Another source claimed: "She's absolutely relentless. She marches around like a dictator in high heels, fuming and barking orders."
Meghan has strenuously denied these allegations, describing them as part of a "calculated smear campaign".
Tensions became apparent in September when Meghan was notably absent from WME's exclusive rooftop party at the Waldorf Astoria following the Emmy Awards.
The event, attended by stars including Kevin Costner, Brie Larson and Javier Bardem, came just three days after The Hollywood Reporter published an article titled "Why Hollywood Keeps Quitting on Harry and Meghan".
A senior Hollywood publicist told the Mail: "It's really striking that WME did not stop this running."
The article revealed the departure of the couple's chief of staff Josh Kettler after only three months in the role.
LATEST ROYAL NEWS:
WME continues to represent both Meghan and Archewell, the content creation label she founded with Prince Harry.
The agency's work with the duchess encompasses film and television production, brand partnerships and overall business-building.
When initially signing with WME in 2023, Meghan was set to work directly with Endeavor CEO Ari Emanuel, agent Brad Slater, and agent Jill Smoller.
The agency's latest confirmation of their ongoing relationship comes as the duchess prepares for new ventures, including her recently rebranded American Riviera Orchard project, now known as As Ever.
