Duchess of Sussex Overlooked as Royals Focus on Reconciliation with Harry
On Prince Harry’s 40th birthday, King Charles issued a heartfelt message to his son, sparking speculation of a possible reconciliation between the Duke of Sussex and the royal family. Prince William and Catherine followed suit, paying tribute to Harry on his milestone day, furthering the notion of rebuilding family ties.
In contrast, Meghan Markle faced a fresh blow as her recent birthday in August went unacknowledged by the royal family. This deliberate omission is seen as a clear signal that while Harry may be welcomed back, Meghan’s return to the UK remains unlikely.
Since stepping down from their royal roles in 2020, Harry and Meghan have frequently made headlines for their criticism of the monarchy. Royal commentator Charlie Ray has speculated that Meghan may never return to the UK, a sentiment seemingly reinforced by the royal family's actions.
