Meghan Markle is understood to be internally relieved over lack of prospect of reuniting with the estranged Royal Family for Christmas.
It comes after it was reported that Prince Harry has been feeling “homesick” and wants to return to the UK.
Speaking to The Mirror, relationship expert Louella Alderson reflected on the former actress’ thought process, expressing that her lack of motivation to go back to the UK stems from her treatment by the royals as well as the British media.
"She may see this as an opportunity to distance herself even further from them and focus on building a happy life with her family in America,” she explained.
“Meghan may feel relieved that she doesn't have to return to the UK any time soon and face the Royal Family.”
Anderson continued: "Regardless of her feelings, it's likely that she wants to prioritise her mental health and well-being, as well as the happiness of her family.
“For Meghan, this could mean keeping their distance for now and reconciling when all parties are ready for a genuine and positive reunion,” she added.
