Meghan Markle is said to be in a far stronger professional position by stepping out alone rather than alongside Prince Harry – as scandal engulfs the royal family over Andrew Windsor’s links to Jeffrey Epstein.

Her polished Hollywood moment stood in stark contrast to the turmoil unfolding in Britain, where renewed scrutiny over Andrew’s past associations has once again placed the monarchy under intense pressure – with the ex-duke arrested on his 66th birthday today over allegations of misconduct in public office.

Joint appearances by Markle and Harry, 41, have been increasingly rare in recent months.
