The royal expert says Prince Harry is “under pressure” from his wife, Meghan, to maintain a connection with his family. Royal commentator Tom Quinn believes royal ties are super important for them due to “commercial reasons.”
Since moving to the States, the Sussexes have distanced themselves from the royal space. However, Harry and Meghan haven’t given up their royal titles, using them for charity work and money-making ventures. Dive in to know the full scoop!

Tom revealed, “Prince Harry still has vague hopes that he will be forgiven and will be offered a minor role somewhere.” Moreover, the royal commentator drew parallels between the Sussexes’s situation and that of Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson.
He recounted that Edward VIII’s marriage caused a constitutional stir that led to his abdication. However, Quinn said, “Even Edward, after the abdication, was given a few minor roles. Harry will be aware of that.”
Tom also predicted Prince Harry might feel adrift once the initial excitement with Meghan fades. He added, “Harry will feel lost – just as Edward VIII felt lost when things had cooled with Mrs Simpson.” Furthermore, Quinn suggests that Prince Harry may then strive to extend olive branches to his brother William. He would want to regain a part-time royal role with Meghan.
However, “But if palace officials have their way, it will never happen,” said the royal specialist. As of now, Prince Harry and Meghan have only visited the UK on rare occasions. This is due to COVID restrictions and safety concerns following the royal family’s decision to pull taxpayer-funded security.
But the royal connections are like tectonic plates, always shifting, so it’s hard to anticipate what’s coming next. Things have only gotten tense since Charles and Kate’s health scare. Only time will tell what the future holds for this timeless royal showdown! Until then, keep returning to TV Season & Spoilers for your daily fix of Prince Harry updates!
