Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are ‘irrelevant’ to the remaining royals and are ‘running out of time’ to rejoin the family, Richard Eden has told Palace Confidential.
Speaking on the Mail+’s weekly talk show, Richard Eden, the Diary Editor of the Daily Mail, claimed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are now ‘not wanted’ by the royal family.
In particular for Charles’s youngest son, 39, ‘time is running out to come back while his father is still King’.
Before Harry and Meghan made their move to the US in 2020, Richard said Harry was always ‘central’ to royal plans.
‘We saw that at Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee in 2012 where it was just Harry and his brother, Camilla and Charles and of course, the queen,’ he explained.

‘Charles thought that when Harry had a family, they would be carrying out engagements and sharing those duties with William so, I think time is running out.
‘If Harry wants to come back at any stage, he needs to do it while his father is still King.’
The Diary editor added that the Prince of Wales would be far more reluctant to allow Harry back into the family, should he try, than their father.
‘I really think that when Prince William is King, I can’t see him letting Harry come back and have a role again,’ he stressed.
‘They are irrelevant now, they are just not wanted as part of the monarchy.
‘Maybe there could be some radical change but it’s hard to see.’
The comments come after an ’embarrassing’ faux pas from Meghan, who lives in Montecito with Harry and their two children.
Meghan landed herself in hot water for over shadowing the announcement that the Princess of Wales would appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony at Trooping the Colour last weekend.

Just hours before Kate Middleton appeared at the event, her first appearance in several months since her ongoing cancer treatment, a friend of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex posted a picture of Megan’s new jam and dog biscuits.
Meghan recently announced she would be selling a range of luxury home goods from her brand American Riviera Orchard.
