Prince Harry’s Friend Reveals True Feelings On United Kingdom Comeback
Prince Harry’s friend has revealed the Duke of Sussex’s true feelings about his return to UK, claiming it was quite sad to discover that he remains angry with members of the Royal Family despite hopes that his extended stay could bring reconciliation.
Harry returned to his home country on Wednesday afternoon, arriving in Birmingham as he and Meghan Markle begin what is expected to be an extended stay in Britain with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
The Duke’s return had been viewed by some as a potentially emotional new chapter, particularly because Harry has previously spoken about missing his family and wanting to repair relationships with his relatives.
There had also been speculation that time and distance might have softened Harry’s feelings towards the Royal Family. However, people close to the Duke are reportedly surprised to find that some of the anger surrounding his departure from royal life remains.
According to sources cited by the Mail on Sunday, Harry’s friends had expected to see “noises of contrition and humility” following his return to Britain, but they reportedly found a very different situation.
Instead, the sources claimed there would be “no imminent mea culpa” from Harry, suggesting that the Duke is not preparing to publicly apologise or make a significant admission about his role in the long-running family dispute.
One source reportedly described Harry as still being in the “Oprah mindset,” referring to the couple’s highly publicised 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, during which Harry and Meghan made a series of claims about their experiences within the Royal Family.
The source also claimed that Harry remains angry with some members of the Royal Family and continues to be frustrated by what he views as the influence of the “men in grey suits” surrounding his father, King Charles.
Harry is also reportedly still expecting an apology from members of the Royal Family. His position has previously included a desire for accountability over what he and Meghan have said about their experiences during their time as working royals.
The revelation has reportedly left some of Harry’s friends “surprised,” with one source describing it as “shocking and quite sad” that the Duke’s feelings have apparently changed little since the events surrounding his departure in 2020.
Harry previously spoke publicly about wanting an apology for Meghan, particularly after the claims the couple made about their experiences during their time as senior members of the Royal Family.
Despite the expectations surrounding his return, the latest reports suggest Harry is not preparing to offer a public apology of his own. According to the sources, he “certainly won’t be issuing a public apology for his actions.”
The sources also claimed that Diana’s legacy remains an important factor in Harry’s thinking. His relationship with his late mother’s memory has frequently featured in discussions surrounding his family disputes and his public comments about the Royal Family.
Harry’s return to Britain therefore appears to be taking place against a complicated emotional backdrop. While his presence in the country could create opportunities for private conversations with relatives, there is reportedly little indication that he has abandoned the grievances that have shaped the family rift.
For royal watchers hoping that Harry’s extended UK stay could immediately lead to reconciliation, the latest claims may come as a disappointment. His friends’ reported reaction suggests that, despite being back in Britain and closer to his family, the Duke may still believe there are unresolved issues that must be addressed before genuine healing can begin.
