Royal Expert Finds it ‘Slightly Disturbing’ That Prince Harry Hasn’t Met a Certain Person in Meghan’s Life
There have been conflicting reports about whether Prince Harry was invited to his good friend and Prince Archie’s godfather Hugh Grosvenor, the Duke of Westminster’s wedding to Olivia Henson on June 7 at Chester Cathedral in northwest England.
Some news outlets reported that Harry and Meghan were left off the guest list because Prince William, who served as an usher, was attending the affair. Other outlets, however, claim that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did receive an invite but declined to avoid any tension running into the Prince of Wales.
Whatever the case, a royal commentator has “worrying echoes” and is pointing out how Prince Harry is mirroring Meghan’s behavior with how she’s treated some of her friends and family. Here’s more on that and why the expert finds it “disturbing” that Harry still hasn’t met a certain person in the former Suits star‘s life.
Commentator thinks it’s ‘disturbing’ that Meghan hasn’t introduced Harry to 1 person
Daily Mail diary editor Richard Eden spoke to Palace Confidential about Harry not attending Grosvenor’s wedding and how the prince keeping his distance from his longtime pal is concerning.
“Some of his old friends drifted away after he started going out with Meghan. But Hugh, the Duke of Westminster, didn’t,” Eden said. “He stayed friends and this was shown by the fact he agreed to become godfather to Prince Archie. So the fact that Harry has not come back even for his wedding is very significant.”
The expert added: “It does have worrying echoes for me of the way that Meghan has become estranged from her own family. You might remember that few members of her family were present at the royal wedding.”
Eden is referring to the fact that Meghan’s only relative to attend the Sussexes’ nuptials was her mother, Doria Ragland. The commentator then explained that he finds it a bit “disturbing” that Harry has never met his wife‘s father, Thomas Markle.
“Prince Harry hasn’t even met his father-in-law. For me, I do find it slightly disturbing,” Eden shared.
Expert says the duchess’s relationship with Thomas ‘would take a lot’ to be repaired
Although he has been estranged from his daughter since 2018, Thomas still does interviews from time to time in which he makes public pleas to one day see his grandchildren. But many believe the day won’t ever come when he gets a chance to see Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Relationship expert Louella Alderson expained that it “would take a lot” to fix things between Meghan and her dad.
Alderson told The Mirror: “It’s possible for relationships to mend and heal over time, but ultimately, it will depend on both parties being willing to put in effort and work towards reconciliation. It would take a lot of forgiveness and understanding from Meghan to repair her relationship with her father and it’s unclear if she is ready or willing to do so at this point.”
