Prince Harry’s friends ‘won’t visit him in Montecito for heartbreaking reason over Meghan Markle’

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle moved to Montecito, California in 2020 after giving up their royal titles. A royal expert says that Harry’s friends now ‘won’t visit him’

If Prince Harry believed his friends would visit him in Montecito, he thought wrong.

Harry and Meghan Markle moved to Montecito, California in 2020 after giving up their royal titles. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex do not have the best relationship with the Royal Family but have visited when necessary. In June, Hugh Grosvenor, who is one of Harry’s oldest friends and godfather to the Sussexes’ son Archie, tied the knot with Olivia Henson at Chester Cathedral. Many were shocked when neither Meghan nor Harry were in sight.

Royal author and expert, Tom Quinn, told The Mirror that Harry does not see his friends and he thinks it’s because of Meghan.

Quinn said: “Harry on the other hand is increasingly bored and looking back across the Atlantic where most of his army and school friends still live and whom he never sees because they won’t visit him in the States because they find Meghan difficult.”

When traveling to London to celebrate 10 years of the Invictus Games, Harry checked into a hotel room alone in London during his trip instead of staying at a royal residence or visiting friends. The ceremony was held at St Paul’s Cathedral on May 8.

Quinn told The Mirror that it was possible that Harry was not going to meet any of his old friends from school and the military since they are “a part of the old pre-Meghan world” that Harry “hates to revisit”. He added that the Duke’s army friends felt “betrayed” by the way he wrote about military service in his memoir, Spare, and now they feel like they have “nothing in common” with him.

The royal author and expert also said that many of Harry’s old friends “don’t like Meghan” and blame the Duchess of Sussex for transforming the duke into what one of them called “Harry the Hippy.”

During his visit for the Invictus Games, not only did Harry’s friends not want to see him but neither did his father. King Charles was joined by a large group of royals in a show of unity at the Buckingham Palace garden party, while Harry was attending the Invictus Games service. The location of the celebration was only two kilometres from St. Paul’s.
