The Duchess of Sussex, 42, boarded a plane from LAX to Heathrow last night, accompanied by just one bodyguard seen carrying some of her bags and clothes.
The mother-of-two left Archie and Lilibet at home and was taken to LAX in a white luxury BMW last night, hours after she was spotted behind the wheel of her $140,000 black Range Rover taking a hamburger at Inside and outside near the Sussexes’ $14.6 million Montecito home.

His solo bodyguard carried a backpack and a dark suit that perhaps carried one of his boss’s robes.
Meghan must lands in London this morning but is not expected to stop long in the British capital, where she lived for three years with her husband before Megxit in January 2020.
