Meghan Markle and Prince Harry could end up "like Edward and Mrs Simpson" if the couple continues to exile from the Royal Family, a leading expert has claimed.
The Duchess of Sussex opted to remain at their home in California, US, with their two children Archie and Lilibet whilst Harry attends the King's coronation on May 6.
However, PR guru Mark Borkowski claimed Meghan decided to stay at home after The Duke of Sussex's "Spare" memoir damaged the pair's brand.
He said: "She's kept her head down for some time. I suspect this is due to the noise that accompanied Spare, it created debate and a huge amount of coverage. I don't think it played well in America, especially with their fundraisers.
"The Royal Family refused to comment, so it became one-sided whinging and a visceral story of his life that didn't resonate well. And they were both challenged by that because they are on a constant mission to raise money and generate coverage to help her brand."
The PR expert also thinks Meghan will want to get past the Coronation so they will be able to focus on their brand - as there is nothing to gain from attending King Charles's ceremony.
Mr Borkowski told MailOnline: "There is nothing for her to gain from disrupting the King's big day. She needs to stand back. In the PR game it is choosing your battles and the strategy will be to get past the coronation.
"But the Meghan and Harry story is way beyond the boundaries of Britain and the Commonwealth. There will definitely be a relaunch by Meghan. It is impossible for them to stay quiet."
Royal experts claimed Meghan is waiting until after the Coronation to relaunch her career after she and Harry stepped back from their roles in 2020.
But Mr Borowski doesn't believe it will be long until the pair get back into the limelight because otherwise they'll up like "Edward and Mrs Simpson" - which is in reference to the 1936 abdication of King Edward VIII, who gave up his throne to marry the twice-divorced American Wallis Simpson.
He said: "They need the royal pomp and ceremony. They could end up becoming an entity like Edward and Mrs Simpson. Some forlorn royals with no connection to the family being in exile. There are parallels there.
"They will be very quick to regenerate interest. But it is going to be more and more and difficult. For many Spare was a set of stories that went too far."
