Prince Harry’s last minute attempts to patch up his relationship with the Royal Family and spend Christmas with them has been blasted as “highly inapproporiate” by a royal commentator.
Richard Fitzwilliams, speaking to GB News, rebuked claims that Harry has been trying to mend the royal rift in the run-up to Christmas in an effort to spend the day with them for the first time since 2018.
He said: “He may send messages to his family, and we had these reports before Endgame. But I mean it would be highly inappropriate.
“If you look at the polls in America, you see the fact that just simply making money by trashing the Royal Family is not the way forward for them.”

He added: “Harry was exceptionally critical of the Royal Family in a variety of television interviews promoting Spare, not to mention the book itself, where he was seen as so bitter.”
Fitzwilliams argued the Royal Family would just be worried about what they said and did in front of Harry and Meghan Markle if they were to invite them, as they are an “untrustworthy” couple.
He said: “The point with this is that the Sussexes are completely unpredictable. They’re also untrustworthy. This is not a background on which you could have a relaxed Christmas.
“You can’t trust the Sussexes. The answer certainly is to keep them at arm’s length.”
The royal commentator also made the decisive statement that Meghan and Harry will absolutely not return to Sandringham this year due to the “circus” of media attention they have recieved recently, all of which Fitzwilliams claimed “overshadowed” King Charles.
He claimed: “They won’t come. So much of King Charles’s reign has been overshadowed by the Sussexes – by Spare, by the court cases, by the so-called ‘near catastrophic car chase’, and by Endgame. I mean, it’s become a circus, so they won’t come.”
Looking past Meghan and Harry’s Christmas planned, Fitzwilliams also discussed what the Royal Family’s Christmas Day would be like without them. He stressed the focus would be on “solidarity”.
He concluded: “The emphasis will be on family unity and solidarity. And the fact that they’ve obviously done the right thing in not commenting on recent furore.”
