Renowned royal expert Tom Bower has weighed in on the ongoing saga surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's fractured relationship with the royal family.
In a recent statement, Bower expressed his belief that the rift between the couple and the royal family is irreparable.
According to Bower, Harry's actions have caused irreversible damage to any hopes of reconciliation with his family.
Bower, author of the bestselling book “Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors,” highlighted Harry's seemingly selfish and shortsighted behavior as a major obstacle to any potential reconciliation.
He criticized Harry for prioritizing personal gain and publicity over repairing his relationships with the royal family, particularly with King Charles and Prince William.
In a series of revealing interviews, Meghan has also made it clear that she believes it is too late for any meaningful reconciliation with the royal family.
Bower emphasized that Harry appears oblivious to the pain and discord he has caused, attributing his behavior to a sense of self-absorption and a desire for a lavish lifestyle in California.
Amid speculations about their attendance at the upcoming royal coronation, a spokesperson for Harry and Meghan has indicated that a decision has yet to be made regarding their presence at the event.
The couple's strained relationship with the royal family was further underscored when they were evicted from Frogmore Cottage, with the keys being offered to Princess Eugenie instead.
Bower cautioned against Harry and Meghan attending the coronation, expressing concerns that their presence could overshadow the significance of the event and distract from King Charles's momentous day.
He urged the couple to consider the potential negative impact of their attendance on the proceedings and emphasized the importance of prioritizing the king's needs on such a significant occasion.
Despite recent confirmations that Harry and Meghan's children will retain their prince and princess titles, Bower suggested that these titles could still be subject to change.
He noted that the couple's contentious relationship with the royal family has been exacerbated by a series of public disputes and revelations, including Harry's memoir and accusations against various family members.
In a candid interview, Harry opened up about his struggles growing up in a broken home and the emotional toll it took on him.
He shared intimate details about his experiences with trauma and substance abuse, highlighting his efforts to break free from the cycle of dysfunction and create a healthier environment for his own children.
As tensions continue to simmer between Harry, Meghan, and the royal family, the prospect of their attendance at the coronation remains uncertain.
While Harry has left the door open to the possibility of his participation in the event, the ongoing rift between the couple and the royal family casts a shadow of uncertainty over their future interactions.
The ball is now in their court as they navigate the complexities of their relationships and royal obligations.
