Royal experts react to Meghan Markle's social outing with Ellen DeGeneres, Portia de Rossi in UK - The News International

Royal experts have expressed their views over Meghan Markle’s first social outing in Britain with Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi.

The royal experts believe Meghan is raising questions after being photographed with Hollywood stars.

Speaking to the Fox News Digital, royal expert Kinsey Schofield hints that "there is already going to be considerably less privacy for Meghan in Britain than perhaps she anticipated."

The royal expert said, "But there is an irony here too. If Harry and Meghan genuinely wanted to disappear into quiet country life, the Cotswolds is one of the places where they could probably accomplish that.”

She went on saying, "Instead, Meghan’s first photographed social outing is with Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi. That tells me she remains very interested in celebrity and in being associated with recognizable, high-profile people."

The expert further says, Meghan knows "where her popularity currently stands in the United Kingdom," noting she "consistently polls near the bottom" when it comes to royal popularity.

Another royal expert Hilary Fordwich agrees with Schofield, saying "Meghan Markle does nothing per chance" and was deliberately photographed with the celebrity couple to signal "for all to see that she’s extending her celebrity world from California to the Cotswolds, aiming to be viewed as significant."

"She’s saying ‘I’m a Hollywood celebrity’ rather than a royal and am thus far 'sticking to celebrity lane insulated by privilege and not integrating into English life,'" Fordwich said.
