Meghan Markle is reportedly feeling uneasy as Prince William and Kate Middleton focus more of their charity efforts on the United States. Following the recent announcement of their plans to extend the Royal Foundation’s reach across the Atlantic, Meghan is concerned that her upcoming public return might coincide with their increased presence in the U.S.

According to insiders, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been laying the groundwork for their foundation’s expansion in America, filing important documents with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Their foundation, which supports mental health initiatives, is aiming to broaden its scope internationally, including a significant push in the United States. This move could put them in direct competition with Prince Harry and Meghan’sArchewell Foundation, particularly in the realm of mental health and community-based projects.

The news reportedly caught Meghan off guard. Sources suggest she was surprised by how much focus Kate and William are placing on the U.S., especially since their foundation has traditionally been more UK-centric. “Meghan was shocked when she learned about the new American plans,” an insider shared. “It feels like they’re stepping into her territory.”

Meghan’s return to public life

While Kate Middleton has been steadily returning to her public duties after her recent health challenges, Meghan Markle is preparing for her own return to the public eye. However, the timing of her comeback could clash with Kate and William’s expansion, adding a layer of complexity to Meghan’s plans.

Meghan has been working on several new projects, including initiatives through the Archewell Foundation. Prince Harry, meanwhile, has been making headlines in the U.S. with high-profile appearances, including his recent speech at the Clinton Global Initiative. With her husband increasingly comfortable in the U.S. spotlight, Meghan reportedly feels the pressure to make her own significant mark.

As the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge look to strengthen their presence in America, tensions between the royal couples could increase, especially if their public efforts overlap. Meghan is said to be feeling uncertain about her ability to compete with the immense popularity Kate and William enjoy in the States. Despite this, sources close to her are confident that her hard work on new ventures will pay off when the time is right.

Ultimately, the coming months will be crucial for Meghan, as she seeks to balance her desire for a strong comeback with the reality of sharing the stage with the future King and Queen.
