A royal expert has claimed that Prince Harry is ‘heartbroken’ at the fact his children Archie and Lilibet could grow up without knowing their relatives
Royal commentator Duncan Larcombe suggests that Prince Harry is “heartbroken” over his children’s potential detachment from the Royal Family, insinuating that whereas Meghan Markle has realised her aspirations, Prince Harry has fulfilled only some of his, detailed in Woman magazine. Notwithstanding his contented role as a “loving father and husband” Mr. Larcombe believes Harry has not gained much else.
The continuing debate over Harry’s security arrangements fuels conjecture about his possible return to the UK with kids Archie and Lilibet, given added impetus by the Sussexes’ reported purchase of a property in Portugal.
Mr. Larcombe stresses: “Meghan’s dreams have all come true, but what about Harry’s? He is now richer than he was, even more famous and surrounded by celebrity hangers-on rather than the group of trusted people who called friends.”
Additionally, he notes: “The major change for Harry is having two children in his life and being able to play the role of loving father and husband, something he has always wanted. Though aside from that dream achieved, there is arguably little else he has really gained.”
Ultimately Mr. Larcombe emphasises Harry’s poignant dilemma: “No matter how he might try to protest, Harry will be missing his family and friends back in Britain and will be heartbroken that his children are being brought up without knowing the relatives he left behind.”
Reports and comments throughout 2024 have been rife with speculation about Prince Harry’s yearning for the UK and his attempts to mend fences with the Royal Family.
In an interview with The Mirror, Royal biographer Tom Quinn weighed in on what he describes as the end of Harry’s “honeymoon period” in America, reports AberdeenLive.
Mr Quinn remarked: “As time goes by, Harry misses some aspects of his old life in the UK.”
He went on to add: “Inevitably, the honeymoon period where everything in the States is new and exciting is coming to an end and Harry is looking back at the past through rose-tinted spectacles. He misses his Old Etonian and army friends, many of whom have not visited as they don’t get on with Meghan.”
Furthermore, Quinn suggests Harry’s ongoing legal battle to have his security costs covered by the British taxpayer is part of a wider plan to establish a permanent residence in the UK.
This sentiment has been echoed among Royal experts, who speculate that the Sussexes’ property in Portugal might symbolically and physically bring Harry closer to his roots and family members like Princess Eugenie.
CambridgeLive has reported that Princess Eugenie is thrilled about the idea of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moving closer. An insider revealed: “Eugenie is immensely fond of Harry and Meghan, as is Jack. They’ve always been incredibly close and it’s extremely heartening to them that a wider (peace for the Sussexes) with the royals is finally in sight.”
Representatives for Prince Harry have been contacted for a statement.
