Meghan Markle ‘won’t return to UK’ due to ‘Kate Middleton problem’
Princess Diana’s biographer Andrew Morton claimed that Meghan Markle won’t want to come back to the UK in future, as it presents an issue she will want to avoid.

Meghan Markle won’t want to come back to the UK in future says Andrew Morton.
Meghan Markle will not want to return to the UK in the future and face curtseying to the Princess of Wales, a royal biographer suggested. Andrew Morton, who collaborated with Diana, Princess of Wales on his 1992 book Diana: Her True Story, ruled out a move back from the US for Meghan and the Duke of Sussex.
Asked whether he thought the Sussexes would ever come back to Britain, Andrew told Sky News’ Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips last year: “What, and have Meghan Markle curtseying to Kate Middleton? I don’t think so. I don’t see that as a runner. They’ve got their own lives in California.” Royal Highnesses bow and curtsey only to majesties, so Meghan – The Duchess of Sussex – would only have to do so to Kate once the princess becomes Queen.
The duke shed further light on the row between Kate and Meghan over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress, saying the incident left Meghan “sobbing on the floor”.
Andrew described how Diana had wanted her youngest son Harry to be a “wingman” to William. She also hoped her husband Charles would move to Italy with his then-mistress Camilla, now the Queen, to spend his time farming and sketching, leaving his eldest son to become King.
He added: “She also saw Harry very much as a back up, as a wingman to William in the difficult, lonely job that he will face. Well, that hasn’t happened either.”
Andrew was speaking just days after the 26th anniversary of Diana’s death and as unheard audio tapes of the late princess are due to air in an upcoming documentary.
