Recently, Meghan Markle has become increasingly involved in American politics. An ambition that could seriously prevent her from returning to the British Royal Family, if she ever wanted to.
Now that the British Royal Family is far behind them, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are free to engage as they wish. And this is precisely what the Sussex couple did recently, on the sidelines of the American presidential election, which is fast approaching.
On September 23rd, the two appeared in a video recorded for Time, in which they invite American citizens to make their voices heard at the ballot box and go out and vote. This is not the first time the Duchess has shown her political commitment… which is not really in line with Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Over the past few weeks, Meghan Markle has shown increasing commitment, she who was eager to “find her voice” and to proclaim it loud and clear. Only according to royalty expert Penny Juror, the Duchess of Sussex’s commitment is such that a possible return to the British royal family would be truly compromised, as she explained to the Mirror. “In recent months, Harry and Meghan have seriously cut ties with royalty to the point where there could be no return,” she explained. She added: “Now, it doesn’t seem to bother them at all.
Political ambitions incompatible with the monarchy
The specialist continued: “And I don’t really see Meghan wanting to come back there one day. What she discovered during her short time as a royal member of the British family, is that this family is not a place for someone with political ambition.”
And with good reason, according to Penny Juror, “this centuries-old institution provides an unparalleled platform for charities to change and improve people’s lives, but it’s not a springboard for changing the world, even though it undoubtedly needs it,” she added.
Finally, the royalty expert concluded by suggesting that Prince Harry does not have the same political ambitions as his wife, because the cause that matters most to him is helping the disadvantaged. His wife, on the other hand, fights mainly against racial injustices, as she is a proud Métis woman.
