Meghan Markle has reportedly left her brother-in-law Prince William ‘furious’ with her plans to join Prince Harry for UK trip next month.

The California-based royal couple plan to return to Britain with their children Archie and Lilibet for Invictus Games event next month.

They also want to meet King Charles and the Duchess is eager to win back UK public.

Amid these reports, a royal expert has claimed William will be "furious" about Meghan return to the UK.

Royal commentator Mark Dolan told the Sun, Meghan's return to the UK may be a sign that she and Harry "need to be part of the Royal Family again".

The expert said, “They need the optics, they need the titles, they need the status, they need the elevated position it gives them because at the moment, we’ve seen that Meghan’s popularity is dropping in the United States.”

“So it’s a great moment for them and a terrible blow for Team Wales.

"Prince William will be furious.”

Another royal expert Phil Dampier claimed to the Daily Mail that while King Charles is keen to reconcile with Meghan and Harry, there is "no way" William and his wife Kate Middleton will want to be in the same room as them.

Royal expert Tom Sykes said, tensions within the royal family may have resurfaced after the Prince of Wales learned about plans involving Harry, Meghan and King Charles.
