Harry's Permanent Royal Exile: The One Thing California Duke 'Craves' That Keeps Him Away From the Palace
Harry, Duke of Sussex, reportedly 'craves' a certain thing that does not align with life in the British royal family.
Prince Harry is likely "permanently exiled" from life as a senior, working member of the British royal family, but the rebel Duke is said to have "thrown it all away" for one certain thing.
Veteran royal correspondent Jennie Bond revealed that she hopes Harry "has a happy life now and all that he wanted, the freedom he craved — and he did crave that freedom — the wife he loves, the children he adores, the family life in that model of domestic bliss that he didn't have in his own adolescence."
The expert further added how she "can't see Harry returning but misses his involvement in public life."
"Harry was the most popular royal, wasn't he, a few years ago?" she asked. "And having watched him grow up and know him just a little bit, he was a wonderful little boy."
She continued: "And a charming, jovial adolescent [he was] — at least that's what we saw. And he was brilliant for the royal family; he did bring a natural, common touch, a relatability that would've been a great asset had he stayed."
This is in contrast to reports that reflect the fifth in line to the throne's "self-destruct" crisis regarding his mental health and where his life has landed as of late.
"Harry has pressed the self-destruct button, and he is going ahead with what he thinks is right, and I think he will come unstuck," former royal butler Paul Burrell said in May on behalf of Spin Genie. "I don’t think all their plans are going to pan out; I think there is a timescale to his destruction."
The former palace aide, who served as Princess Diana's personal butler from 1987 until her death 10 years later, added: "I think they are just letting him get on with it now; I don’t think they are too happy about it, but Harry is taking another step closer all the time to isolation."
"Coming unstuck" is also a fear that some close to the royal rebel prince have, thanks to his "turbulent" past with substance abuse and fighting paparazzi during the 2000s. Yet others feel that his inability to process his mother's death is likely at the root of some of his "current issues."
"The military sorted all that out," an ex-palace aide shared when mentioning Harry's "wild days" as a teenager and twenty-something. "I think a big problem is that he never completely processed Diana's sudden death. The poor boy was only 12 at the time, but he should have grown up years ago, let's be honest."
Neither Harry nor Meghan Markle have fulfilled a royal engagement since March 2020.
