Although the exact reason for Meghan’s absence has not been given, it would have been difficult for her to rejoin the royal family under difficult circumstances.
Meghan and Harry are so close to the Queen that the couple named their daughter Lilybet.
Harry told The Today Show in April that he and his grandmother “had a really great relationship. We talk about things that she can’t talk to anyone about.”
In an interview published on August 29, Meghan insisted that she is working to forgive the royal family for everything that happened with Harry while working in the royal company.
“I think forgiveness is very important. It takes a lot of energy not to forgive. But it takes a lot of effort to forgive. I tried really hard,” he said.
The royal family is shocked by this interview which tarnished their reputation.
