Meghan Markle 'Does Not Feel Welcome' in the U.K. as Her Popularity Dwindles
Prince Harry will return to the U.K. for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, but Meghan Markle won't be joining her husband.
According to one royal expert, the Duchess of Sussex's low approval rating in the U.K. is stopping her from visiting her husband's native nation.
"Meghan tells friends that she does not feel welcome or comfortable in the U.K.," Kinsey Schofield told an outlet. "I know that their popularity has seen a severe decline in Britain, but I also know that Meghan would be treated with kindness if she opted to attend."
"I am surprised that Meghan would not want to appear alongside Prince Harry to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games," she noted.
Along with Meghan's absence, the Windsors won't be in attendance.
"There will be no senior members of the royal family there to support Prince Harry," Schofield added.
After Harry and Meghan left the royal fold in 2020, the couple released several tell-all projects, which only made things worse with Harry's brood.
"Prince Harry is suffering the consequences of his actions," Schofield explained. "Harry does not take responsibility for the tsunami of hurt he has caused his family. The king sees this very clearly. Harry is still under the impression that he has not done anything wrong by purging family secrets for paychecks. That delusion concerns everyone that used to be close to Harry."
