Prince Harry, Meghan Markle's UK return signals ‘spectacular defeat’ as royal experts warn of William showdown
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's reported return to Britain could mark the ultimate reversal of Megxit.
Six years after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex walked away from royal life in pursuit of freedom, financial independence and a fresh start in America, royal experts told Fox News Digital their homecoming could expose the cracks in the life they set out to build.
Back on royal turf, the Sussexes could also find themselves on a collision course with Prince William and Kate Middleton as old tensions threaten to resurface.
"There is no way to spin a move back to Britain as anything other than a spectacular defeat for the entire premise of Megxit," Kinsey Schofield, host of YouTube’s "Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered," told Fox News Digital.
The reported homecoming undercuts the very message Harry and Meghan sent when they walked away from royal life six years ago, according to the royal expert.
PRINCE HARRY LONGS FOR HIS OLD ROYAL LIFE AS AMERICA ISN'T WHAT HE EXPECTED, EXPERTS SAY "Harry set out to demonstrate that the monarchy needed him far more than he needed the monarchy.
His return delivers precisely the opposite conclusion," she said.
"Remember what Megxit was supposed to represent.
Freedom.
Financial independence.
Global influence.
A dazzling new life without the constraints of the institution," Schofield reminded.
"They weren’t forced into exile.
They chose this." Schofield argued that after years of trying to build a life independent of the monarchy, returning to Britain only underscored how difficult it had been for the couple to escape its pull.
