"A return for Meghan Markle, if it actually happens, could drop like a lead balloon with the British public"
A royal expert has slammed Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle after BBC reported that they will visit the UK next month with their children Archie and Lilibet, their first family trip back to the country since 2022.
The Duke has reportedly been planning to visit the UK this summer to mark the one-year countdown towards next year´s Invictus Games.
Meghan and Harry last visited Britain with their children for the Platinum Jubilee celebrations for Queen Elizabeth II in June 2022, just a few months before her death in September that year.
Following these reports, royal expert Lee Cohen criticized the couple for ‘tying Birmingham countdown to a family spectacle’.
Speaking to the Spectator, the expert said: “A return for Meghan Markle, if it actually happens, could drop like a lead balloon with the British public.
“She torched her bridges in her husband’s homeland, above all, it seems, through the couple’s conduct toward the late Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip in their final years.”
The expert continued, “Many in Britain and throughout the globe who cherished the late Queen and her husband will neither forget nor forgive.”
He added, “If Meghan does step back onto British soil with the children, polite endurance is the best reception she could possibly hope for. The bridges were burned and dynamited.”
