Meghan Markle's Great Escape: Duchess Eyes U.K. Move Following Superstar Pal's American Exit After Donald Trump Election Win

Meghan Markle, 43, could be set to move back to Britain, royal return or not, thanks to Donald Trump's second presidential election victory.

The former actress is reportedly following her good friend Ellen Degeneres,' 66, decision to exit America after the President-elect's victory. Trump, 78, defeated his Democrat opponent Vice President Kamala Harris, 60, by what some outlets are calling "a clear landslide."

DeGeneres, who fell from grace due to claims of staff bullying on her long-running talk show, allegedly said that both she and wife, Portia de Rossi, 51, wished to "get the h--- out" of the country after being "very disillusioned" by the electoral result. Trump also won the popular favorite after losing it to Hillary Clinton in 2016, despite winning the Electoral College that decides who gets to sit in the Oval Office. President Joe Biden defeated the billionaire mogul in both categories in 2020.

The former talk show has reportedly been friends with the reluctant Duchess since her brief stint as a working royal. She is said to have visited Meghan and Prince Harry, 40, in London shortly after Prince Archie's birth in 2019.

In a recent video, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared together publicly for the first time in months to address digital violence and child safety, key initiatives of their Archewell Foundation.

This appearance coincided with significant political shifts, notably Trump's victory, which adds a layer of complexity given the upcoming 47th president's vocal criticisms of the couple, particularly of Harry.

The video, released on the Archewell website, served as a message to a United Nations conference in Colombia focused on ending violence against children. Meghan emphasized the dual-edged nature of digital advancement by stating, "My husband and I recognize today's reality is marked by greater connectivity and advanced technology, which of course has many positives, but which also compels us to better understand how digital violence against children is manifesting itself in this age."

The California Duchess' point underscores the vulnerability children face in the digital age, where online connectivity can lead to both supportive and harmful environments.

The Duke added urgency to their message, noting, "We are at a crossroads," and pointing out that it is essential to "translate that awareness into meaningful action."

His statement resonates with their mission to promote both awareness and concrete changes. HRH stressed that while the dangers of digital violence have long been recognized, it is now time to turn awareness into direct intervention.

Additionally, the couple’s discussion highlighted their foundation’s commitment to engaging with "young people, families and experts worldwide."

Meghan reflected on how technology shapes all aspects of a child’s life, warning that "every aspect of a child’s life — from their livelihood to their physical and mental well-being — now operates within an online economy that has both the power to shape and misshape our connections."
