Prince Harry has a hidden motive behind his efforts to meet with his father, King Charles, and reconcile with the Royal Family, a royal commentator has claimed. The Duke of Sussex has been estranged from the Royal Family since his sensational departure in 2020; however, recently, various attempts have been made to pave the way for reconciliation between the two sides.
Harry met with the King last September during a visit to the UK, while in May, he publicly expressed his wish to reconcile with the royals during a BBC interview. Now, a royal commentator claimed that the real reason behind Harry’s attempts could be commercial pressure, which could prove to be a “significant motivator” for why the Duke wants to rebuild bridges.
Royal author Duncan Larcombe told the Mirror: “If they go on to lose all of their Netflix deal, it’s going to come as a very bitter blow to them. Largely, it’s been a success story for them personally since they stepped down as working royals. But if it means selling the family silver, you don’t want to get into a situation where you don’t make full money for it.”

Royal Family distance themselves from Prince Harry despite his desperate bid to reconcile
COMMENT: “It’s been a big week for Prince Harry, having taken to the stand in his High Court trial against Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL) and given emotional testimony about how the publishers have impacted his life.
“Choked up with emotion, he told the court that ANL have “made my wife’s life an absolute misery” and described the ordeal as “traumatic”, “horrible” and “fundamentally wrong” to put him and the other claimants through a trial when all they seek is accountability.
“In his testimony last week, it was clear that Harry resented being born into an institution where he had to tow the family line to ‘never explain, never complain’ and felt unable to challenge what was being said about him.”

Meghan Markle sent letter to King Charles ‘complaining about royal rules’
Meghan Markle allegedly sent a letter to King Charles seeking answers on why “different rules” applied to her and Prince Harry compared to other royals, it has been claimed.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex quit the Royal Family in 2020 and moved to the US for a new life.
Although the Sussexes originally wanted to be “part-time” royals, their wish was not granted by the late Queen Elizabeth and both sides agreed that they should carry on with their lives in America without using their HRH titles, which they still retain, for commercial gain.
And despite the frosty rift that has been building between them, it has been claimed that the Duchess attempted to deal with it privately.
