Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been keeping busy with a myriad of projects and public appearances this year. From new Netflix projects to the launch of the Duchess’ brand, the royal couple has been making waves in the entertainment industry. However, amidst their packed schedule, British royal courtiers are reportedly finding their constant output to be chaotic.
According to royal editor Tom Sykes, Buckingham Palace would prefer that Harry and Meghan fade into quiet obscurity. However, as private citizens, they cannot be banned from attending events or making public appearances. Despite some analysts suggesting that Harry’s assistance to his brother, Prince William, would be brotherly, others believe that the Duke of Cambridge is keeping his distance from the Sussexes.
The Prince of Wales has been dealing with his own chaotic year, particularly with the ongoing preventative chemotherapy treatments that his wife, the Duchess of Cornwall, has been undergoing. This has reportedly added stress to the future king, making him hesitant to engage in a sibling reunion with Harry.
Former royal butler to Princess Diana, Paul Burrell, revealed that William is keeping his family, including his wife Kate Middleton and their children, away from Harry and Meghan. The rift between the two brothers seems to be growing, with tensions running high on both sides.
As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex continue to carve out their own path outside of the royal family, it remains to be seen how their relationship with the rest of the monarchy will evolve. Despite the challenges and controversies surrounding them, Harry and Meghan are determined to make a positive impact through their work and public engagements.
