Meghan Markle, 40, and Prince Harry, 37, are going to be coming out with some big plans in 2022 as royal watchers are "going to see a lot more of them". The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have settled into a new life in Montecito in California, bought an ￡11million house, secured lucrative multimillion-pound deals with Netflix and Spotify and volunteered during the COVID-19 crisis. Royal expert Neil Sean has claimed Meghan will also be "reshaping herself2 as an activist.

       Speaking on his YouTube channel, Mr Sean said: "Meghan is really inspired to get active.

       "I think what's truly happening now is you do think to yourself, 'I can really move forward'.

       "Apparently, Harry and Meghan are planning very big plans for 2022.

       "You're going to see a lot more of them and Meghan really wants to reshape herself now as something of an activist."

       It comes as Meghan has been told to "think carefully" about using her Duchess of Sussex title in the US after her recent lobbying.

       Meghan contacted Republican Senators Shelley Moore Capito and Susan Collins on their private numbers to ask to support paid parental leave and a climate policy.

       Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand had given the numbers to the Duchess of Sussex and said she would be part of a group to work on paid leave long term. Royal expert Jonathan Sacerdoti warned Meghan against using her title.

       Speaking to Express.co.uk, Mr Sacerdoti said: "I think that there's a sense that Meghan has increasing ambitions but maybe more as an activist than as an actual politician.

       "I think that would be a very bold step to go and do that especially if she constantly reminds everyone that she's the Duchess of Sussex.

       "She has every right to use her title but I think involving herself more in politics especially in America, she may want to think carefully about the use of the title and any association between the Royal Family and a political cause like that.

       "It is a political cause that many of us might support but regardless, to appear in more political contexts in America, I think would be increasingly challenging for somebody who is still keen to tie themselves to the Royal Family.

       "Of course that doesn't mean she won't do it."

       While royal commentator Hilary Fordwich has lashed out at Meghan when she is lobbying despite being unelected.

       Speaking to Newsnation, Ms Fordwich said: "On the American side of things, we didn't elect Meghan Markle.

       "She's not elected. The Democrat has said there are going to be more phone calls than just those two.

       "She said, I gave out more numbers of senators, there may be more phone calls.

       "She added that Meghan Markle is going to be in a group of people working on how long this paid family leave should be."
