Royal biographer Andrew Morton weighed in on the matter, suggesting that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle might not return to the UK, primarily due to Meghan's reluctance to acknowledge Kate Middleton as a future queen. Morton's comments were made during an interview on Sky News with Trevor Phillips. He pointed out that the couple had established their own lives, influence, and businesses in California, making a return to the UK unlikely.
As per royal protocol, Meghan would only be required to curtsy to Kate Middleton once the latter ascends the throne. The speculation around this issue arose after Prince Harry announced his solo trip to the UK to attend the WellChild Awards in London before joining Meghan in Germany for the Invictus Games.
However, it's worth noting that an unidentified royal insider mentioned that Prince Harry would not have an audience with his father, King Charles III, during his visit, as Charles reportedly has a packed schedule. Furthermore, there have been rumors of concern within the royal family about the possibility of Harry having an outburst during his UK trip.
Harry's visit coincides with the first anniversary of Queen Elizabeth's passing on September 8th, although it's unclear if he has been invited to participate in any official remembrance ceremonies.
In a recent Netflix series about the Invictus Games, Prince Harry criticized the lack of support he received from the Royals following his mother's death in 1997. This led to discussions about emotional support and communication within the family.
Despite the upcoming trip, Prince Harry seems unfazed and attended an event with Meghan supporting a different monarch, Beyoncé, at Sofi Stadium in California.
Nonetheless, Meghan Markle reportedly harbors concerns about Kate Middleton potentially meddling in peace talks between Prince Harry and other members of the royal family during his UK visit. Harry is said to have a lot of respect for Kate, despite his strained relationship with Prince William, but Meghan is worried about not being present to defend herself if discussions take an unexpected turn.
It's important to note that Meghan Markle will not be joining Prince Harry in the UK due to prior commitments and her responsibilities as a parent to their children, Archie and Lilibet.
