A royal expert has claimed that UK Soho House membership has plummeted after Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s return to Britain.

In his latest piece for Naughty But Nice substack, royal expert Rob Shuter, citing the sources, has claimed that Soho House is firmly Team Meghan.

London society insiders claimed to Rob that members are abandoning the once-unmissable private club, with some complaining Soho House has become so closely associated with Meghan that membership now feels like choosing between royals.

The close confidant said, “Soho House is firmly Team Meghan.

“In certain circles, being seen there now feels like making a statement: Meghan over Catherine. People don’t want their dinner reservation interpreted as a royal allegiance.”

The royal expert explained Meghan’s connection to Soho House runs deep. The Duchess and her husband Harry famously dated at its Dean Street location, while her longtime friendship with executive Markus Anderson further cemented the association.

Meanwhile, following their return to Britain after six years in US, the royal couple was seen visiting the Soho Farmhouse, a private members club located in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire.

Harry used the gym on the premises, before enjoying brunch with his wife.

Royal expert Tom Sykes has claimed members of Soho Farmhouse said Meghan had an early morning coffee and was introduced to senior staff members by name and with "considerable fanfare."
