It was the second consecutive time Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle were not invited to Trooping the Colour in the UK. According to Royal Family commentator Esther Krakue, it was unsurprising that the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex were not allowed to get close to the family.
“To have the Sussexes anywhere near the Royal Family at this precarious time when three members of the Royal Family have significant health issues would not be a very wise thing to do,” Krakue told Sky News.
“It’s not surprising at all. And, it's an invitation I suspect the Duke and Duchess would reject because they don’t feel safe here in the UK,” she added.
The comment comes when Prince Harry reportedly wants a permanent home in the UK. Harry, currently in California with his wife and kids, is in a legal fight in the UK about his security, which was reduced after he had left the Royal Family. Despite this, he still wants a place in Britain.
Royal author Tom Quinn believes Harry is missing his old life. The Duke “misses his Old Etonian and army friends, many of whom have not visited as they don’t get on with Meghan", according to Quinn.
"Harry is determined to find his own permanent home in the UK, which is partly why he’s continuing his legal action to get the British taxpayer to pay for his security," the author told The Mirror.
According to the expert, the initial excitement of living in the US is fading, and Harry is now looking back at his past with nostalgia. As time passes, Harry misses certain aspects of his old life in the UK, Quinn added.
