The Duchess of Sussex is not on speaking terms with several senior members of the monarchy
Meghan Markle has ruled out staying with the Royal Family in the UK, according to a royal commentator.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped down as working members of the Royal Family in 2020.
The couple married in May 2018 at Windsor Castle and received a royal residence from the late Queen Elizabeth II to mark the occasion.
Harry and Meghan were given Frogmore Cottage and lived there until 2020 before they stood down from their Royal Family roles.

Despite living in Montecito, California the Sussexes used Frogmore as their UK base and would stay there when they returned to England.
However, in 2023 following the publication of the Duke of Sussex's autobiography Spare, King Charles asked the couple to vacate the royal residence.
Spare contained multiple attacks on senior members of the Royal Family including Queen Camilla, Prince William and the Princess of Wales.
The Sussexes officially vacated the royal residence in July 2023 and have not found a UK base since leaving Frogmore.

Prince Harry has made multiple trips to London since being evicted from Frogmore Cottage but has stayed in hotel rooms rather than at a Royal Family residence.
In July, Prince Harry said he would not bring Meghan back to the UK due to feeling uncomfortable with the level of security he is provided when back in the country of his birth.
Royal commentator Tom Quinn highlighted the issues of security and the Sussexes not having a base as reasons why the Duchess of Sussex will not return to the UK.
Quinn told the Mirror: "Meghan has said she's only prepared to return to England if she and Harry have a place of their own and the security they both feel is essential.
"Meghan will never return to the UK and stay with her husband's relatives."

The invitation to use an apartment at the palace came in May when Harry returned to London to attend an anniversary event for the Invictus Games.
A source told the Times: "I don’t know what more the King could have done.
"He offered Harry to stay at Buckingham Palace but that it seems even that wasn’t good enough."
