A friend of Meghan reportedly said: “She’s fully aware that they’ll be walking into the lion’s den when they arrive in the UK.”

“She knows how important it is to Harry that she’s there at his side, but coming face-to-face with certain members of The Firm – who she claimed made their lives a misery – is a horrible prospect.”

The source went on to state that Meghan “will not tolerate any eye-rolling, snide put-downs or mean-spirited behaviour towards her or Harry.”

“She wants to know, if it came to it, that Harry’s prepared to step up and be that same protective partner he was during their time in England… She wants Harry to promise he’ll pack up and leave if they’re disrespected,” the insider continued.
