Much fuss was made when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle shook off the shackles of royal life in favour of making it on their own. Initially it seemed like Harry was loving it based on the shenanigans he found himself in just weeks after pissing off grandma.
But now that the post-royal life honeymoon period is over, it seems like Prince Harry is starting to regret his decision to choose pleb life over the crown.
Speaking of Prince Harry (and his regrets) and Meghan Markle, the GOAT team talk about ‘Megxit’ on ‘It’s Been A Big Day For…’ below:
According to Vanity Fair, some loose-lipped sources say that Prince Harry is finding it tough to adjust to his new pleb life in Los Angeles and insinuated that some regrets are starting to set in now that glow of bailing on the Royal Family is gone.
However, the sources do point out that while Prince Harry is missing is army buddies and is struggling to fit into Meghan Markle’s buzzing LA social circle, he knows this will blow over soon.
“He has a lot of friends in the military community in the UK and of course he misses them. This is a very strange time for us all, but I think Harry is missing having a structure to his life right now. He doesn’t have friends in L.A. like Meghan and he doesn’t have a job. So at the moment he’s a bit rudderless, but it won’t always be like this, and he knows that.”
Normally we would take something like this with a grain of salt but given how this is not the first time Prince Harry’s loneliness has made the news, perhaps there might actually be something to these juicy stories.
Interestingly, these reports also note that Prince Harry’s loneliness and whatever regrets he may or may not have has nothing to do with Meghan Markle. Put those pitchforks back, Meghan critics.
“He was in a happy place when he was serving in the Army, then he met Meghan and since then life has been great. But I don’t think he foresaw things turning out quite as they did.
“Of course he doesn’t blame Meghan. There is just a sense that he might have been better protected if he was still in the Army.”
That being said, maybe Harry’s lonely LA life is the reason why he’s reportedly getting back in touch with his older brother.
So will we see Prince Harry getting on his knees and begging grandma to take him back into the Royal family? Honestly, that seems doubtful given how every bridge was burned to the ground.
Sure Prince Harry may have regrets bailing on his royal life but that’s usually the feeling everyone gets when a big life-changing decision is made and here’s hoping he’ll keep his chin up. And besides, even if he wanted to go back to the royals he’ll have to fight tooth and nail for his old spot now that Princess Anne has slipped into that role.
