Meghan Markle is reportedly considering a return to the UK only if she can secure some of the roles currently held by Kate Middleton, according to royal biographer Angela Levin. The Duke of Sussex is said to be contemplating a move back to his homeland after discussing his options with former aides and friends. Sources suggest that Harry is seeking advice from his old acquaintances, realizing that he needs to reassess his approach since his current situation isn’t working out. Essentially, he is reconsidering his strategy.
Levin notes that Meghan appears envious of the Princess of Wales and would only relocate with Harry if they could secure a large home and substantial financial resources. She claimed that Meghan would not return unless she could take on some of Kate’s responsibilities. Levin recalled that Meghan had previously expressed surprise at not being compensated for her engagements.
Levin also criticized Prince Harry, suggesting that he is portraying himself as a victim by wanting to re-enter royal life on a part-time basis. She pointed out that the late Queen was adamant that he could not be “half in and half out” of royal duties and expressed concern over Harry’s intentions, stating it disturbs her that he seems to want to play the victim.
Andrew Pierce echoed Levin’s sentiments, suggesting that the Duke of Sussex is seeking the best of both worlds after relinquishing his royal responsibilities in 2020. Levin agreed, noting that Harry might be trying to take advantage of the situation, especially since Prince William is preoccupied with many responsibilities, which could provide an opening for them. She highlighted that the King is doing his utmost but could become fatigued, indicating that Harry and Meghan might be trying to exploit this as well.
Levin advised that if Harry genuinely wished to mend things, he should apologize to his father. However, she speculated that he would instead demand apologies and financial compensation, along with extensive security arrangements. Discussing the Sussexes, Levin pointed out that Meghan’s plan to establish a new life in California seems to be faltering, which may explain Harry’s desire to return to the UK and repair relationships.
Levin remarked that Meghan frequently refers to herself as a global figure, but she believes this perception is misleading and contributes to her unpopularity. She noted that Meghan has recently lost another public relations head, in contrast to the long tenures of royal staff who are often treated like family for decades.
