Tongues are being loosened in California where Prince Harry has lived with Meghan Markle and their children for several years. A source confided in the Daily Mail about the desire of the son of King Charles III to no longer appear near his wife during his travels.
A supporting role, very little for him. During his last appearances with Meghan Markle, Prince Harry seemed confined to the role, nodding politely while his wife took the floor to promote the foundation they created together. “You could say Harry isn’t even his wife’s substitute. He’s almost nothing. She treats him in a horrible way. If you pay close attention to him in the images of the trips to Colombia and Africa, we don’t ask him anything. We move it out of the way.”, commented royal expert Angela Levin. A few days earlier, the Duke of Sussex gave an interview on American television. Here again, his very withdrawn attitude did not go unnoticed. Completely turned off, he played nervously with his fingers while his wife sought his support by gripping his knee. “Harry seems suspicious and is barely there. His hand does not squeeze his, on the contrary he rubs his fingers and thumb in his own hand, a sign of anxiety. […] When Meghan speaks, he watches her face closely.”, had analyzed the body language specialist, Judi James. Perhaps he was already thinking about his new strategy?
Harry and Meghan live ‘separate lives’
For several weeks, the youngest son of King Charles III has been carrying out his missions alone in the four corners of the world. If Meghan Markle had indeed been invited by Kevin Costner to a charity gala last month in Santa Barbara, her name no longer appeared on Prince Harry’s agenda for his other commitments. In New York or London, he went to several important events without the former American actress he married in 2018. A curious stratagem which raises many questions about the couple who fled the British royal family. “It’s significant that he does so much on his own now. They live more separate lives, as Harry seems to be trying to carve out a specific future for himself. I feel like he feels like a substitute again, a spare part. He wants more fulfilling roles for himself.” told l’expert royal Phil Dampier.
Prince Harry ‘needs space’
And above all he wants to stay at the top of the bill, while restoring his image. Before his marriage to Meghan Markle, Prince Harry had a huge popularity rating. A success that he owed to his natural ease with the public when he came to defend his various causes. Aware of his potential, he now preferred to go it alone. According to a source in California, cited by the Daily Mailthese solo appearances are solely the idea of William’s little brother. “I heard he wanted to do it this way. He needs space.”we can read in the British daily. Another source in London adds: “It gives the impression that he wants to improve his game to consolidate his role as a serious player on the international scene. He always desperately wanted to be taken seriously and people I know have said that his fall from grace really hit him.”
Prince Harry therefore continues his journey without Meghan Markle at his side. A few days ago, he visited Lesotho, a country dear to his heart. And here again, the absence of the mother of his two children is surprising. “There may be a good reason why she can’t let the kidsbut she has never been to Lesotho and that surprises me. It’s like a second home for Harry.”confides a source to Daily Mail. According to journalist Alison Boshoff, the couple simply decided to share the tasks. The former star of the series Suits should concentrate on his projects, and in particular the launch of his brand. The Duke of Sussex will take care of the charitable side as he knows how to do so well. Unity does not always make strength.
