Meghan Markle attends Fortune Most Powerful Women Summit 2025.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's departure as working members of the Royal Family remains one of the most talked-about and shocking royal moments in recent years. Though for some months afterwards there was speculation that they could return, this was officially put to bed in a statement by Buckingham Palace in February 2021.
