In an effort to mend strained relations with the Royal Family, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is reportedly considering a “part-time” trans-Atlantic living arrangement. The plan involves spending eight months a year in California and the remaining time renting an apartment at Kensington Palace.
According to a report by Express, this move aims to bring King Charles closer to Meghan and Prince Harry’s children, Prince Louis and Princess Lilibet, fulfilling the monarch’s expressed desire to spend more time with all his grandchildren.
The Mirror suggests that Meghan sees this arrangement as a potential solution to repair strains in her marriage with Prince Harry and as a strategic step to mend their relationship with King Charles. The 75-year-old monarch has reportedly expressed a desire for the family to be reunited. However, sources suggest that any reunion would come with strict conditions, including an agreement from Meghan and Harry not to speak ill of the royals again, emphasizing the potential embarrassment if they were to face expulsion from the family for a second time.
Recent developments indicate that Prince Harry had a “warm” phone call with his father, King Charles, for his birthday, and Meghan also spoke with her father-in-law. Despite initial hopes for a reconciliation, Omid Scobie’s latest book, “Endgame,” has introduced complications, seemingly dashing the couple’s expectations for a reunion.
Following the fallout from Scobie’s book and the controversy surrounding it, there is a belief that despite the family’s anger, there is “always a way back” for Meghan. Journalist Duncan Larcombe suggests that the Sussexes are aware of the fury within the Prince and Princess of Wales, and the revelation of Kate’s name in the book has reignited William’s anger. Larcombe acknowledges that while a way back is possible, given Camilla’s transformation from the most hated person in Britain to the Queen, the current situation makes a reconciliation seem “pretty unthinkable.”
Despite these challenges, there are ongoing speculations about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex considering an invitation to the UK for Christmas. However, the situation remains delicate, and the controversy surrounding “Endgame” adds complexity to the dynamics within the Royal Family.
As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to navigate these intricacies, the prospect of a reunion with the Royal Family remains uncertain. While there is acknowledgment that history has shown paths to reconciliation, the current circumstances, fueled by recent events, present formidable challenges to restoring harmony within the royal fold
