Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been out more in the past few months.
The royal couple, who became reclusive after stepping down from their royal duties and moving to California, finally found a reason to be outdoors with their children.
On multiple occasions, Prince Harry has been photographed having the time of his life while playing polo with his friends, including Nacho Figueras — one of the world’s top polo players.
Wearing his green and white uniform, Prince Harry and his Padres teammates have been scoring major wins and taking home trophies.
Markle and the other spouses are often present to cheer Prince Harry and the other players on the field.
Prince Harry and his wife have given photographers a few headline-making shots thanks to their constant display of affection.
Even though the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared to be living their best lives, a royal expert has revealed that is not the case.
According to royal expert and author Duncan Larcombe, Prince Harry is not his usual self and has been looking “homesick” while playing polo.
The royal pundit claimed that the former soldier returned to the sports he loves because he misses the UK, his family, and friends.
According to the expert, Markle is doing all she can to give Prince Harry the “perfect LA life,” including going out to dinner and drinks with friends.
The Duke of Sussex and his wife reside in a Montecito mansion and are close to Oprah Winfrey and David Foster.
Speaking to Closer, the writer said that despite Prince Harry’s lavish lifestyle, his “self-imposed exile” might be dragging him down.
He told the publication: “He seems homesick to me. Harry’s suddenly playing polo again and drinking with his new friends – all things he used to enjoy doing in the UK.”
He continued by sharing these tidbits about Prince Harry’s unhappiness: “Meghan is cheering him on on the sidelines, helping create this perfect LA life for him to justify what he’s given up in the UK. But something doesn’t seem to sit right. Harry looks unhappy. He is living out there in self-imposed exile, and Harry is a very sociable person.”
The royal commentator concluded by: “In his formative years, he had lots of friends – including his estranged brother William – and was always spending time with them. He must sometimes wonder if everything he has given up has been worth it.”
However, one of Prince Harry’s friends has disputed the claims that he is homesick and is clinging to his old life in the UK.
British player Millie Hine told the Mail On Sunday that Prince Harry is living his dream in the US, playing professional-level of polo.
Hine said he knows the members of Prince Harry’s Los Padres team and the royal “trains four times a week and goes to the gym most days to keep up with star player Nacho Figueras, the ‘David Beckham‘ of polo.”
He took a swipe at Prince William by saying his busy brother “can manage only the occasional charity day.” Indeed Prince William returned to polo playing for charity this month.
The Palace announced that the Duke of Cambridge would take part in the Out-Sourcing Inc. Royal Charity Polo Cup 2022 at Guards Polo Club on Wednesday, July 6.
A pal of Meghan Markle has taken to social media to let the world know that she is well surrounded.
Delfina Blaquier, the wife of Prince Harry’s polo teammate and friend. Nacho Figueras, penned a loving message on Instagram where she called the Duchess of Sussex her sister.
She wrote: “M – looking forward to many more of these times with you and H. Getting to spend time together over these 2 months was so special. I wish everyone knew you the way you are. My sister, my now fellow “pwife.” Can’t wait to see you again soon, to share thrill, hikes, and just more chill time.”
Blaquier added: “You also have my respect. Keep walking, steady and strong. Listen to your heart; that will guide you well bc you have a big one, and it’s a beautiful one. I love you, my darling. Can’t be possible that this is the only #pwife picture we have together … Vamos #LosPadresPoloTeam !!!”
Her husband added this comment: “I second that! We love you, M.”
One way or the other, Prince Harry is not going back home anytime soon.
