Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are approaching their eighth wedding anniversary on May 19.
New claims have emerged suggesting the Duke of Sussex may be thinking deeply about the choices that have reshaped his life and his relationship with the royal family.
Since stepping down from royal duties in 2020, Harry and Meghan have settled in the exclusive enclave of Montecito with their children, Prince Archie of Sussex and Princess Lilibet.
Speaking to GB News, commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said the Duke appeared keen to reconnect with Britain, particularly King Charles and his old circle of friends.
“I think Harry would like to have closer ties with Britain and certainly with his father and his friends,” he said.
Attention now turns to the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham, where Harry is expected to play a major role.
Another commentator, Rafe Haydel-Mankoo, argued that Harry appears increasingly drawn to the role he once held within the monarchy.
“I think it’s clear that Harry has a lot of regrets about the life choices that led him to move away from his homeland and his family,” he said.
He added that Harry’s recent international appearances, including visits to Australia and Ukraine, appear to be attempts to continue operating in a royal capacity despite no longer being a working royal.
According to the commentator, Harry might also recognize that much of the couple’s global relevance remains closely tied to their royal connections.
Haydel-Mankoo called the prospect “inconceivable”, insisting that neither King Charles nor Prince William would be likely to reopen the door to a return to the royal fold.
