Meghan Markle is reportedly facing a significant obstacle in her rumoured plans to return to the UK with Prince Harry. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex recently met with King Charles and Queen Camilla, sparking speculation that the couple may be considering a permanent move back to Britain. However, commentators have suggested that while there may be a path back for Harry, it may not include Meghan.
Maureen Callahan, host of The Nerve, told Sky News Australia that “the reporting out of King Charles’ office has always been, there could be a way back for Harry. But it would be without Meghan.” She added that she finds it “really hard to believe that Meghan would consider living in the UK, even part time. She is so loathed there, and she knows it.” Callahan also noted that the couple’s approval ratings are “in the toilet” and contrasted them with the popularity of Prince William and Princess Catherine, adding that William wants nothing to do with his brother.
Callahan described Harry as unhappy in Montecito, saying “he doesn’t really have a job, he doesn’t really have an infrastructure of a social life and friends. Every Hollywood heavyweight who has attempted to help the Sussexes has thoroughly been put off by them. They are in a lonely place of their own making.”
Danica De Giorgio agreed that Meghan is “absolutely despised” in the UK, blaming the couple for their predicament. “They have chosen this lifestyle, it’s clearly not working for them and now they think they can weasel their way back,” she said. “But they’re desperate. But they’ve done it to themselves, so they only have themselves to blame.”
Callahan criticised the Sussexes for their public disclosures, stating: “You cannot plead privacy when you publish a bestselling memoir in which you divulge all manner of your family’s intimate secrets. The gloves are off when you sit for a Netflix documentary in which you depict yourself as the most hounded couple of the modern age, and in which Meghan mocked the late Queen with that courtesy and compared the British Royal Family to the American theme park franchise known as Medieval Times.”
