shared: "I think they liked not having me.

"I think they liked not having someone who would fight with them or give an unpopular opinion. I was very insecure about not being missed on maternity leave. I felt it. I felt like they didn't miss me."

Meghan is the daughter of former Presidential candidate John McCain, and she's open-minded about the prospect of moving into politics.

The outspoken star hasn't ruled out entering the political arena one day.

Asked about the possibility, she told People: "At some point, maybe."

Meghan subsequently admitted she's more likely to move into politics than host her own TV show.

Asked whether she's more likely to host a show or run for office, Meghan

replied: "At this point in my life, moving home to Arizona and running for office sounds way more interesting.

"I'm not running for office ... but I'm just saying if there was a metric of placing bets: Yes. If someone has a gun to your head [and says,] 'Pick one or the other ... '"
