Prince Harry set for UK return as Duke of Sussex ‘refusing to be cast aside’

Prince Harry is set to return to the UK as the Duke of Sussex feels he has been cast aside by the Royal Family, according to a source.

The Duke of Sussex stepped down as a working member of the monarchy in 2020 and shortly after moved to the US with his wife Meghan Markle.

Since stepping down from the Royal Family, the couple have publicly criticised senior working royals through several forms of media.

In 2021, Meghan and Harry slammed aspects of royal life in a TV interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Prince Harry is set to return to the UK as the Duke of Sussex feels he has been cast aside by the Royal Family, according to a source.

The following year the couple released a Netflix documentary titled Harry & Meghan where the Duchess of Sussex ridiculed having to curtsey to Queen Elizabeth II.

Prince Harry heavily criticised Camilla, Prince William and his brother’s wife Princess Catherine in his autobiography Spare which was released in January 2023.

Harry’s comments in Spare particularly about William and King Charles’s wives marked a new low in the Duke of Sussex’s relationships with his family.

A royal insider has claimed that Harry will now fly to the UK to see his family later this year.

The Duke of Sussex stepped down as a working member of the monarchy in 2020 and shortly after moved to the US with his wife Meghan Markle.

They said: “He can’t believe it’s come to this, and he’s now saying he’s going to fly over and force them to face him.

“He’s still a prince, after all; they’re still his family, and whether they like it or not, he’s refusing to just be cast aside.”

The source added: “He continues to be heartbroken and confused by the way he’s being treated by the royals. It’s as though he doesn’t exist anymore.”

Prince Harry has travelled to the UK twice in 2024 but did not see the Prince of Wales during either of his trips.

Harry’s comments in Spare particularly about William and King Charles’s wives marked a new low in the Duke of Sussex’s relationships with his family.

William and Harry have barely spoken over the last 18 months and last saw each other at the Coronation in May 2023.

The Duke of Sussex’s first visit in February 2024 came after Buckingham Palace announced his father had been diagnosed with cancer.

Prince Harry spent just 45 minutes with King Charles due to the monarch’s busy schedule.

Harry released a statement in May confirming he would not be able to see his father during his most recent trip to the UK due to the monarch’s planned engagements.
