Will Meghan Markle return to the UK?
Last month, Prince Harry lost his court appeal against the decision to downgrade his taxpayer-funded security following his royal exit.
After he and Meghan stepped down from being working royals in 2020, their security level in the UK was downgraded. It’s now decided on a case-by-case basis.
Meghan understandably feels scared about coming to the UK with the children. The threats are real and genuine.
However the duke has admitted that this has left him feeling as though he is unable to bring his children to the UK.
Now, it’s been claimed that Meghan is also concerned about coming back to the UK, with the duchess fearing for her safety.
Former royal commentator Duncan Larcombe told OK!: “Meghan understandably feels scared about coming to the UK with the children. The threats are real and genuine. The threat is from lunatics, radical protesters that might want to make a name for themselves by jumping in front of them. Then of course you have the worst type, the terrorist threat. And there’s no doubt Harry – and his family, as a result – is a huge target.”

Meghan ‘terrified’ of putting her kids at ‘risk’
Speaking to the publication, a source also said: “In some ways she’s feeling stronger and she wants to share that but she’s still terrified of putting her kids at risk by coming back to the UK – any parent would panic if they were in Meghan’s shoes. So even though Harry is really feeling the absence of his dad, especially after Trooping the Colour and Father’s Day, the security stuff will probably always be an issue.”
They then continued. “He knows that things could’ve been so different if things had gone another way, but it’s been five years since they left the UK and the chances of them coming back, even for a visit, seem slim to none. It’s heartbreaking.”
Royal Insider has contacted Meghan’s representatives for comment.

Meghan ‘taking the lead’ following Harry’s reconciliation plea
After losing his security court case, Harry did an interview with the BBC.
In the interview, he claimed that he wanted to reconcile with his family and his father. However, he claimed that King Charles wasn’t speaking to him at the moment.
Following this, it has been reported that Meghan is planning out the Sussex family summer. It’s believed she’s doing this in a bid to take Harry’s mind off his family dramas.
Sources speaking to OK! magazine claimed that Meghan is organising trips to Napa for wine tasting, family outings in Big Sur and Northern California. And it’s also believed they are going to visit a close friend in Colorado.
The source explained that Meghan wants to make a “big effort to prop up” Prince Harry after his reconciliation plea allegedly fell flat.
It’s said Meghan wants to “remind him that he has got all he needs with her and the kids” along with their “beautiful” life in America.
