Prince Harry’s criticism of the Royal Family has reportedly cost him the respect of some close friends in the UK. According sourcesThe Duke of Sussex’s comments about his life and family after marrying Meghan Markle in 2018 have upset many in his inner circle.
Royal expert Rebecca English recently shared reflections on the strained relationships in his column, writing: “I was told of a former confidant, who for many years could not have been closer to Harry, who was so disgusted by his behavior and, in particular, by some of the things he he apparently said privately about his family: that they promised never to speak to him again. And they haven’t done it.”
Along with these informationroyal commentator Phil Dampier weighed in on the complexities of Harry’s current situation with his wife, Meghan Markle. Dampier believes Meghan is deeply focused on her professional endeavors, especially her upcoming projects with Netflix and American Riviera Orchard. “I probably want a little break so I can throw it,” he explained. As for Harry, Dampier noted that he has been involved in his own charitable work, making trips between the United States and the United Kingdom for various causes.
Dampier suggests that while the couple’s professional interests may take them in different directions, there is no evidence of a personal divide. “It appears that they are going their separate ways professionally, but there is no indication that they are parting ways at this time personally.” he said.
Prince Harry’s departure from the Royal Family in 2020, along with Meghan and their son, Archie, was a major turning point. The couple later shared their complaints about alleged racism and lack of support from the Royal Family, claims that shook the monarchy and widened the rift.
Now settled in California, they welcomed their daughter, Lilibet, in 2021 and continued their new life in the US, balancing family with high-profile projects and advocacy work. As Harry continues to navigate his personal and professional life, it appears that his outspoken views on the Royal Family have created lasting tensions, not only within his family but also with friends who once supported him.
