Meghan Markle reportedly avoided the Royal Family during Prince Harry's recent trip
Meghan Markle appears to have avoided seeing the Royal Family during Prince Harry's recent trip to the United Kingdom, according to a royal expert.
Just before their trip to Nigeria, the duo met at the London airport. Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, reportedly waited at the airport in the Windsor VIP suite before the Duke joined her and the duo flew to Nigeria.
Harry was in the UK primarily to attend the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, where he was seen without any members of the Royal Family. His wife and his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, were also notably absent.
However, his mother Princess Diana's siblings, Lady Jane Fellowes and Earl Spencer, were there to support him. They were seen hugging Harry, smiling widely and chatting with him.
Now, one expert says Meghan's absence during Harry's visit to London suggests she had other important matters to attend to, but it could also mean she was trying to avoid the royals.
“Meghan may have her new company and other ventures as top priorities,” said public relations expert Ryan McCormick of Goldman McCormick Public Relations. Mirror.
Meghan is said to be busy with her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, and the two Netflix shows she and her husband are making.
“Making a public appearance with Harry may have been done to show his face and quell possible rumors of marital unrest,” he added.
“Furthermore, by not going to London it shows that the Duchess appears to be trying to avoid the Royal Family,” he argued.
