In a surprising turn of events, Prince Harry has reportedly opened up to friends about feeling like an outsider in the United States.
Sources close to the Duke of Sussex reveal that he’s struggling to find his footing and feels overshadowed by his wife, Meghan Markle, during public appearances.
This sentiment of isolation seems to be growing, particularly as the couple navigates life in California.
According to insiders, Harry has been increasingly reaching out to old friends back in Britain.
A recent trip to Colombia highlighted this dynamic; while Meghan thrived in the spotlight, Harry appeared withdrawn and discontented, lurking in the background.
This stark contrast has left many wondering about his mental state and his sense of belonging in his new environment.
The source also indicated that Harry is actively searching for ways to reconnect with his royal roots.
He’s reportedly seeking advice from former friends and associates in the UK, hoping to regain a sense of direction.
This comes on the heels of revelations from the Mail on Sunday, which reported that Harry has been consulting trusted former aides after growing frustrated with the Hollywood representatives he and Meghan had enlisted.
Speculation surrounding Harry’s future intensified following a somber family gathering.
Both he and his brother, Prince William, attended the funeral of their mother’s brother-in-law, Lord Robert Fellows, where they maintained a low profile.
Observers noted that the brothers stood apart and seemingly did not engage in conversation, highlighting the ongoing tension between them.
Since relocating to the U.S. in 2020 and stepping back from royal duties, the dynamics within the royal family have shifted dramatically.
Notably, during Harry’s recent visit to Clarence House to see King Charles—following the announcement of the king’s cancer diagnosis—the two princes did not meet.
This absence of interaction only adds fuel to the fire of speculation regarding their strained relationship.
Tensions escalated further after the release of Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” which contained allegations against William, including accusations of physical altercations and emotional distress.
Royal expert Angela Levin pointed out that Harry has appeared increasingly unhappy and sidelined, especially during the Sussexes’ tour of Colombia last August.
Interestingly, these recent claims about Harry’s feelings seem to contradict his earlier praises for Meghan.
In past interviews, he has credited her with helping him navigate a challenging life, stating she drew him out of a world he felt trapped in.
