Meghan Markle and Prince Harry need to maintain their royal connections to "validate their brand." This is why it would be "very good" for them to return to the United Kingdom.
The assertions came from royal expert Pauline Maclaren, according to Express UK. She is reported to believe that both the Sussex Royals and the British Royal Family will benefit from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's arrival in the country.
The expert argued that if the former working royals do not maintain their connections to the royals, then, "what are they," in terms of their brand. Accordingly, this may encourage them further to make a visit to the royals' turf to "top up" their image.
As for the British Royal Family's part, Maclaren stated that they could "benefit" from it because of the "diversity" that Meghan Markle brings. She did not elaborate, though, as to what she meant, except that the couple's return would be good, as well, for them.
A different royal expert believes, however, that the British Royal Family would be "relieved" if the Duke and Duchess of Sussex remain in the United States, according to MailOnline. As claimed, their absence may even be "welcomed" by senior members of the Royal Firm.
Ingrid Seward told The Sun that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle choosing not to come, especially for Prince Philip's memorial, will likely be a "sigh of relief" to the British Royals. She explained that the event would be a "thanks-giving" for the late Duke of Edinburgh, and the public would not want it becoming into the "Harry and Meghan show."
Whatever the case, though, there is still no confirmation whether Meghan Markle and Prince Harry will return to the United Kingdom in the next few months. All the public knows is that they are "unable" to fly back to the country due to the absence of the necessary police protection, as the royal-born Prince's legal rep previously stated.
The official statement comes as Prince Harry has sought a judicial review against the Home Office's decision not to allow him to personally pay for security while in the United Kingdom. Their camp argues that the Sussex Royals' U.S.-based private security team does not have appropriate jurisdiction abroad, especially in the royal's home country, according to BBC.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex lost their taxpayer-funded security protection when they left their positions as working royals in 2020. But, his legal rep countered that the youngest Wales prince "inherited a security risk at birth, for life," considering that he remains the sixth person in line to the British Throne.
