Harry and Meghan’s Royal Comeback: Will Prince William Play a Key Role?
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may be on the brink of a significant royal return, but it seems that the blessing of Prince William is crucial for this reunion to materialize.
After stepping away from royal duties in 2020, Harry has expressed a desire to reconnect with his family in the UK, sparking speculation about whether this could lead to a more permanent presence for the couple.
Recently, following a brief visit to London after King Charles' cancer diagnosis, Harry appeared on “Good Morning America.”
During the interview, he mentioned, “I've got other trips planned that will take me across the UK or back to the UK, so you know, I'll be stopping by and seeing my family as much as I can.”
His words hint at a potential shift in dynamics within the royal family.
According to Grant Harrold, a former butler to King Charles, the key to Harry and Meghan's reintegration into royal life lies in mending their relationship with Prince William.
Despite a long-standing feud, Harrold believes that reconciliation is still possible.
He emphasized the importance of repairing strained relations before any permanent return can happen.
Harrold, who served the Queen for seven years, acknowledged the complexities involved.
He stated that while it's uncertain if Harry and Meghan will fully resume their royal duties, the possibility remains open.
“Harry could have a discussion with his brother about resuming his royal duties,” he suggested, underscoring that many unresolved issues linger from the past two years.
The estrangement between Harry and William has been well-documented, particularly in Harry's memoir, where he described their troubled relationship.
He recounted a heated confrontation where William allegedly called Meghan “difficult” and even accused him of physical aggression during an argument.
Such revelations have only deepened the rift.
Harrold reminisced about the close bond Harry and William shared during his time working for the royal family.
He noted that rekindling that connection would not only benefit the brothers but also be advantageous for Meghan and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Since relocating to the United States, Meghan has not returned to the UK, remaining with their kids while Harry made solo trips.
Despite her absence, Harrold speculated that Meghan might feel compelled to support her husband's family, especially in light of King Charles' health challenges.
The former royal butler hinted that fans of the monarchy could witness the Sussexes' return to the UK as early as this year, which would mark a significant moment for the family.
The idea of Harry and Meghan rejoining royal life raises numerous questions about how they would fit into the current royal landscape.
