Royal Family LIVE: Prince Harry's offer to King that Meghan Markle is 'absolutely against'

Prince Harry is reportedly willing to return to a temporary royal role to support his ailing father King Charles after the monarch was diagnosed with cancer.

However, Meghan Markle was “absolutely against” the offer made by the Duke, a Royal Family expert has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex, who quit as a senior royal with his wife Meghan in 2020, was “visibly shocked and upset” when he got off the phone with his father King Charles telling him that he had been diagnosed with cancer and “immediately wanted to do something practical to help” his father in his hour of need.

Royal expert and author Tom Quinn told the Mirror that the duke made the offer “safe in the knowledge it would be rejected” and he wouldn’t have to return. He continued: “Harry knows he will never be allowed to be a permanent part-time working royal staying six months in the States and then six months in the UK.

“The family no longer trust him and, besides, Meghan is absolutely against it. There is far too much bad blood now for it to be even a remote possibility.”
