Prince Harry’s wife and Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle has developed a phobia of Britain. A royal expert said that Meghan’s reluctance to visit the UK is not due to concerns about her safety, but rather because she believes she would not receive a warm welcome from the British public.
In a recent ITV documentary titled Tabloids on Trial, which focused on his battle with the British press, Prince Harry expressed his unwillingness to bring his wife to the country out of fear that she might become a victim of an acid or knife attack inspired by negative press coverage.

However, the royal expert dismissed these concerns to GB News, saying, “This is not about knives. This is not about acid. This is about Meghan’s fear of booing.”
“I think she is petrified that the great British public will vocalise their dislike of her. And I actually think now she’s become quite Britain-phobic,” he added.
The royal expert suggested that Meghan, being a “California girl,” has never truly fit into the British upper crust that Prince Harry is accustomed to. He argued that there was no valid reason for her absence from the Coronation, as the security measures in place should have been sufficient.
“I don’t think she actually likes this country because of all the negative associations she has with it from her time living here. I don’t think she’s ever really fit into this country anyway,” the royal expert said adding, “She’s a California girl, she’s not really part of that British upper crust that Prince Harry enjoys so much.”
“I just don’t think she really wants to come down here because there was no reason she couldn’t have come for the Coronation,” the expert said while arguing, “The security was fine for the wife of the President. It should have been fine for the wife of Prince Harry.”
The spokesperson also criticised Prince Harry for not bringing his children to visit his father, King Charles III, following his cancer diagnosis, noting that the monarch has only seen Lilibet once and Archie a handful of times.
Since their relocation to California in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have rarely visited the UK together. The Duke of Sussex last visited in May for the Invictus Games, without his wife accompanying him.
In the ITV interview, Prince Harry shared his concerns about the impact of media intrusion on his life, saying, “All it takes is one lone actor, one person who reads this stuff to act on what they have read. And whether it’s a knife or acid, whatever it is, and these are things that are of genuine concern for me. It’s one of the reasons why I won’t bring my wife back to this country.”
