Prince Harry and Meghan Markle take very different approaches to handling the rift with the Royal Family, with the Duchess seemingly being “very business” about it, according to reports. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex quit the Firm five years ago and moved to the US for a new life with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Harry and Meghan have unleashed a series of attacks against the royals over the years but recently, the Duke expressed his wishes to reconcile with them. However, new reports suggest that while Meghan is very supportive of her husband regarding his various lawsuits and the “painful rift” with his estranged relatives, she has a more “business”-like approach and allegedly wishes he could feel less burdened “by the past and more present in the life they’ve built together”. The couple are reportedly “left out” of key details regarding the royals’ lives in the UK.
A source told People magazine: “They [Harry and Meghan] are aware of everything going on in England, but they’re being left out of the details – there’s clearly no trust.
“It’s been difficult for him [Prince Harry] to even get proper updates about his dad.”
The Duke told the BBC last month that his father will not speak to him and he does not know how much longer the King has left.
He also expressed hopes of a reconciliation with his family, saying: “Of course, they will never forgive me for lots of things, but there’s no point in continuing to fight anymore.
“I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point continuing to fight any more, life is precious.”
However, royal biographer Sally Bedell Smith claimed that while, there has been a desire to reconnect, the “underlying issue is trust”.
She told People magazine: “The King and William don’t trust Harry and Meghan with any kind of confidential conversation.”
Another author, Valentine Low, said that while Harry’s interview with the BBC wasn’t meant to be an attack on the royals, “it would be seen as one,” adding: “It makes Charles reaching out even harder.”
