Prince Harry and Meghan Struggle for Independence from Royal Ties Amid Reconciliation Rumors

A commentator recently suggested that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are finding it challenging to establish their significance independently from the Royal Family. This observation comes amid rumors of the Sussexes seeking reconciliation with their royal relatives.

According to reports, the Sussexes reached out to King Charles III last week to celebrate his 75th birthday, sharing a video of their children, Archie and Lilibet, singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to their grandfather. This gesture is seen as a potential step towards mending their relationship with the Royal Family.

During a discussion on GB News, presenter Mark Dolan inquired from royal and showbiz commentator Kinsey Schofield about the likelihood of Harry and Meghan seeking a “peace deal” with the Royal Family. Schofield responded that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex might indeed be longing for such a resolution. She cited a report from Page Six about a pivotal conversation between Harry, Meghan, and King Charles, following what was perceived as a birthday snub.

Schofield elaborated on the challenges faced by the Sussexes in their post-royal endeavors. She pointed out that Meghan’s ‘Archetypes’ podcast, which attempted to distance itself from Royal Family connections, struggled to make a significant impact. The podcast featured conversations with American celebrities but reportedly did not fare well in terms of analytics.

This perceived lack of success was contrasted with the couple’s Netflix series, which, despite being released a year ago, garnered attention primarily for its critical portrayal of the Royal Family. Schofield suggested that to potential business partners like Amazon or Netflix, the real appeal of Harry and Meghan lies in their association with the Royal Family. Hence, reestablishing a positive relationship with the Royal Family might be crucial for their future projects and public image.
