Meghan Markle is said to believe that the ‘royal family needs’ her and Prince Harry’s good relationship in different parts of the world.

An insider close to Meghan offered her thoughts, echoing royal historian Dr. Ed Owens’ comments that Meghan and Harry would have been a better choice for the Caribbean royal visit than Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Talking to Heat World, the source said: “Meghan feels that she and Harry would have done a better job in the Caribbean and that the royal family needs them.”

A source close to the royal couple added: “They make it much more modern, which is what the family need. She feels they’ve been proven right that if they were able to be part-time royals, they would be able to specialize in this type of stuff.”

As for Dr. Owens, he had said that Prince Harry and Meghan would’ve done better in the Caribbean “simply because he had built a good rapport already with Caribbean countries and she is much better known in that part of the world.”
