Meghan Markle Takes a Steady Exit from the British Royal Family and Settles in Montecito
In a potential sign of reconciliation, Prince Harry is reportedly making moves to mend fences with the British royal family [1]. According to expert Nick Ede, this includes offering to share his official schedule to avoid conflicts with royal engagements, a gesture seen as a positive step towards transparency and goodwill towards King Charles and other senior royals.
However, Duchess Meghan Markle, Harry's wife, remains cautious about any truce or full reconciliation. Ede suggests that her past experiences with the royal family have left her approaching these developments with skepticism. While talks between representatives from both sides have taken place, Meghan's hesitance might be viewed as a potential barrier to a full rapprochement.
At present, there is no clear indication that Harry, Meghan, or their children will be resuming official royal duties or having a formal involvement with the British royal family imminently. The focus instead seems to be on communication and relationship repair rather than role reinstatement.
The couple, who have children named Archie and Lilibet, are continuing their independent projects, such as the recent Netflix series updates [3]. Duchess Meghan Markle is currently living in Montecito, California, with Prince Harry.
If Duchess Meghan Markle does not attend Peter Phillips' wedding, it is likely that Archie and Lilibet will not be in attendance. Nick Ede advises Meghan to stay in the US during family celebrations, and he suggests that Prince Harry attending the wedding could be a step towards healing the rift with his family and potentially improving his popularity [2]. Nick Ede also believes that Duchess Meghan Markle has no desire to return to the UK.
In summary, Prince Harry's olive branch is a tentative step towards possible rapprochement but no definitive reintegration into royal roles at this time. The couple continues to focus on their independent media and charitable work, with Meghan living in Montecito and Harry maintaining a cautious approach to family reconciliation.
Prince Harry's outreach may signal a potential exploration of shared cultural experiences with the royal family, as he seeks to improve relationships. However, Duchess Meghan Markle's reservations could mean that entertainment collaborations between celebrities like Meghan and the royals might still be distant possibilities.
