Initially, Prince Harry was being defended by some royal watchers, who said that a transatlantic trip to see King Charles III after the cancer news was the appropriate thing to do.
However, his recent surprise and cheeky appearance in Las Vegas has these same royal experts turning on him. Prince Harry spent about 25 hours in Europe and returned to the United States.
It was believed that Prince Harry was eager to be with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
However, it is now clear that Prince Harry hastily traveled to London and dashed back to the US to take part in a scheduled appearance at the annual NFL Honors ceremony that took place in Las Vegas.
The Duke of Sussex presented Cameron Heyward with the 2023 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award — the highest honor of the night. There are conflicting reports that the couple will be at the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Royal expert Robert Jobson said King Charles was given a crystal clear reason to be upset at his youngest son.
The commentator shared: “Put bluntly, the King was unhappy about what amounted to a fait accompli served up by an emotional but well-meaning son. Thanks to Harry’s intervention, their Majesties were left kicking their heels at Clarence House, their main London home, while they waited for the errant younger son to appear.”
He added: “It is striking that Harry was not invited to stay at Clarence House or, indeed, at any other royal residence. So last-minute was the decision to fly, that he had to book a hotel room for the night.
“And if the Prince had expected to spend some ‘quality time’ at Sandringham House talking about the good old days, perhaps, or rebuilding the paternal bond, he would have been disappointed.”
According to sources that keep a close eye on the situation, Prince Harry’s decision to ignore his father, King Charles when he needed him the most, was read as thoughtless.
This selfish move will be yet another stain on the Sussexes’ already tarnished reputation. Leaving many to wonder if they will ever change, in any significant way.
Those who were hopeful that the tragic situation would open Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s hearts were brutally reminded that the royal couple are in a business.
A business that is built on denigrating the Royal Family, and they are hell-bent on maintaining it, no matter the cost. It seems there is no hope that the Sussexes will rejoin the monarchy.
According to Piers Morgan, there is no way back for Prince Harry. The media personality said that Prince Harry has not just “burned his bridges” with the Royal Family, but “bombed them into matchsticks.”
Morgan, a fierce critic of the Duke of Sussex, stated: “The cold, hard reality is that Harry hasn’t just burned his bridges with the royals, he’s bombed them into matchsticks — and I’m told many of the family want nothing more to do with either him or Meghan. That’s certainly William’s view — and who can blame him?”
Some are still hoping for some kind of miracle.
