“But look, I should shut up, you never know in America. It seems unlikely but not impossible.
“American politics is very unpredictable and it’s getting more that way.”
Meghan has been rather coy about her own political ambitions.

The 45th President, who the Duchess has labelled “divisive” and “misogynistic”, said he would “love to debate” Meghan.
Trump added: “Let’s go do something. I’d love to debate her. I would love it.”
The 77-year-old went on to accuse the Duchess off treating the late Queen with “disrespect” and said he “didn’t like” the fact the Sussexes “were getting US security when they came here”.
