Prince Harry will play the game, but he’s changing the rules, and it’s not going to work out well for him, one royal expert has claimed.
The Duke of Sussex has been recording videos and sending them through to events to make it look like he’s there in-person, in an attempt to control the narrative, royal expert Michael Cole claimed.
Cole sent through commentary to Daily Express US, saying: “It’s clear that Prince Harry is now being produced.”
He adds: “The majority of his ‘public appearances’ are not public appearances at all, but carefully choreographed video recordings played into events where his name on the invitation has been the main attraction.”
The royal commentator has a theory on why this is because then Harry won’t have to see people he doesn’t wish to see or answer questions he doesn’t wish to answer.
Cole said: “Prince Harry is playing a game that can only have one winner — and it won’t be him.”

Cole believes Harry sending through pre-recorded videos is an attempt to control the narrative.
The royal expert says: “Live events cannot be completely controlled. But if you record things, then the message and the image both come out in the way you would wish the world to hear and see.”
“He’s trading on his royal status for money and then failing to deliver. This will not only diminish his personal reputation, it will be disappointing people who have paid good money to see or hear him.”
