Speaking in June last year to British businesswoman and podcaster Emma Grede, Meghan talked about her Netflix lifestyle series With Love, Meghan, and hinted at a return to acting when asked if she missed that side to her life.

"Sometimes," Meghan replied. "Being back on set with With Love, Meghan was great because I realised how much I miss my crew. I love being around a crew."

But Variety's chief correspondent Marlow Stern says when it comes to deliberations over a potential acting role for Meghan, "a lot of it has to do with scheduling, to be honest".

"They're maybe also negotiating the size of the role and how many days she'll shoot, and also compensation for it. Both sides often play the media to try and push things along, and we could be seeing that."

For Harry, the focus once back in the UK will be on the charity work and patronages he has kept hold of while living thousands of miles away.

He has now completed his final charity engagements in the US before flying back to the UK in the coming days.

In Washington DC, he met military veterans and their families and visited America's main hospital for injured servicemen and women, Walter Reed National Military Medical Centre.

At Arlington National Cemetery, he visited the final resting place of many service personal killed in Iraq and Afghanistan wars where he himself served on two operational tours.

At the grave of Sergeant Michael Verardo, who died last year from complications related to injuries sustained in Afghanistan in 2010, he met Verardo's widow Sarah - who now supports other military families - and their nine-year-old daughter, Elizabeth.
