Meghan Markle steps out with Ellen DeGeneres in first photographed U.K. outing since move
Key Points:
- Meghan Markle was photographed enjoying a casual outing with longtime friends Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi at a countryside pub in Oxfordshire, marking her first public outing in the U.K. since moving back with Prince Harry and their children last month.
- The reunion highlights Meghan's continued connection to her former California circle, as DeGeneres and de Rossi also relocated to the English countryside in 2024 while maintaining homes in both California and the U.K.
- Meghan has kept a relatively low profile since returning to Britain on August 26, although she shared social media footage of her family enjoying the English countryside, while Harry has engaged in public appearances like the WellChild Awards in London.
- The Sussexes stepped back from senior royal duties in 2020 and their return to the U.K. does not signal a resumption of official royal roles, as they continue to balance private life with selective public engagements.
