This surprise move is expected to be a step towards mending the rift with the British Royal Family.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have reportedly bought a home in Portugal, where Princess Eugenie and her family frequently visit. The couple are said to have a close relationship with Princess Eugenie. This could be a big step in seeking forgiveness from the British Royal Family.
Since stepping down as senior members of the British royal family four years ago, Meghan and Harry have moved to the US. The two will not return to the UK together until the Queen’s funeral in September 2022. Meghan is said to have no plans to return to the UK.
While buying a home in Europe may come as a surprise, it is seen as a necessary step to ease tensions between the two sides. The geographical distance could allow them to spend more time in the UK, especially with King Charles.
King Charles was diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. He is said to be keen to nurture his relationship with his two grandchildren, Archie and Lilibet. Previously, the king had spent little time with Archie and appeared to see little or no time with Lilibet.
Recently, many sources said that Prince Harry may be forgiven and be able to return to royal life. However, Meghan may not receive this privilege. Could the American former actress Meghan Markle’s move closer to the UK be the key to mending the relationship with the British Royal Family?
