Goodbye or Good Riddance? Prince Harry Is 'Just Another Celebrity' Now That He's Made the U.S. His Permanent Home

Harry, Duke of Sussex, has been labeled 'just another celebrity' in the wake of his U.S. 'permanent' residency stance.

Prince Harry has claimed "New Country/State Usually Resident" on official U.S. documents in his apparent wish to move forward with becoming an American citizen and "just another celebrity." This has led many analysts to claim that the Duke of Sussex has now "permanently" severed all his ties with his life as one of his father King Charles III' subjects in the United Kingdom.

"Prince Harry doesn't have a pigeonhole or a desk at St James' Palace for correspondence, but I think that reflects the estrangement," royal expert Simon Vigar claimed. "The very big estrangement with William — there doesn't seem to be any repair to that relationship, sadly."

"Harry renouncing his British residency in favor of the U.S. effectively crushes the hopes of anyone expecting the prodigal son to return," PR expert Ryan McCormick dished.

"Psychologically, it must be hard on those who view Harry as a symbol of Britain itself being of origin from the royal family," he added.

The Duke of Sussex decided to change the wording of his travel initiative Travlyst in paperwork related to the company. The fifth in line to the throne no longer recognizes himself as a subject of his father, King Charles III, and one insider claimed this change on the paperwork is "a sign of what's to come when Harry renounces his homeland in favor of America."

But the royal rebels' new projects, such as his polo show for Netflix, could be the one barometer of how the prince judges his success in the States. "For now, Harry may feel welcome in the U.S.," McCormick continued. "However, that could change if his upcoming projects aren't successful or his popularity wanes."

Harry's show will be produced by Boardwalk Pictures, who have also released shows such as Chef's Table and Pepsi, Where's My Jet? Miloš Bala?, who has previously worked on Welcome to Wrexham, will serve as showrunner for the polo series, according to Daily Mirror.

This insight follows Harry and Meghan Markle sharing a kiss on a polo field in Florida on Friday, April 12, as both supported the Duke of Sussex's charity, Sentebale — and Harry's upcoming Netflix series.

"Known primarily for its aesthetic and social scene, the series will pull the curtain back on the grit and passion of the sport, capturing players and all it takes to compete at the highest level," a Netflix press release read about the fifth in line to the British throne's new show.

The Duchess of Sussex is also reportedly "busy at work" filming her very own solo Netflix program as well. "The first series is curated by Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, and celebrates the joys of cooking, gardening, entertaining, and friendship," the streamers' statement continued. Some analysts are reporting this program will tie into the ex-actress' new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.
