Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are expected to be feeling “miserable” this week after Donald Trump was re-elected US President on Tuesday night.

While neither the Duke nor the Duchess of Sussex backed a candidate ahead of the US presidential election, Meghan had criticised Mr Trump in an interview released before she met Harry. Recently, the US President-elect also spoke unfavourably about the couple. Mr Trump has also been creating concern for both Harry and Meghan after comments that he may investigate further into Prince Harry’s US visa application, which earlier this year was at the centre of a lawsuit launched by the conservative Heritage Foundation think tank.

Speaking on The Daily Mail’s Palace Confidential, The Mail on Sunday’s Charlotte Griffith said: “[Harry] will definitely be keeping his head down and definitely burying it in the sand and possibly even running away to Portugal where he’s got a new house. I think that house in Portugal is going to come in very handy over the coming months, not least because Trump said if I get made President he will have nowhere to hide.”

She also said: “Harry and Meghan are the King and Queen of woke, and America is not a very woke place when Trump is in charge, so Meghan will be distraught. I’m amazed she didn’t come out in support of Kamala Harris, she didn’t say anything, but I think she will be feeling pretty miserable this week.”
