‘Very bored’ Prince Harry ‘misses being a working royal’: author
Goodbye California — hello again, England?
Prince Harry is reportedly getting restless over his life in Montecito, California, with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
The Duke of Sussex, 39, and his family moved across the pond from his hometown of London in January 2020 after taking a step back as senior members of the Firm.
According to author Tom Quinn, Harry is “very bored” in the city of palm trees and Tinseltown, and even “misses being a working royal.”
“Being a royal is the only thing he is trained to do,” the “Queen Mary to Meghan Markle” writer told the Mirror recently.
“He knows that to retain his value and the interest of the world he is better off not being a retired royal so offering to come back to help out at least reminds the world who and what he is,” he went on.
The Invictus Games founder has been considering taking more frequent trips back to the United Kingdom as his father, King Charles, undergoes treatment for cancer.
Earlier this month, Harry flew back to his home soil for a quick trip to visit Charles, 75, once news of his cancer went global.
“Harry was apparently visibly shocked and upset when he heard that his father had cancer. Having lost his mother aged 12 he had come to assume that, whatever their ups and downs, his father would enjoy the longevity enjoyed by the late Queen [Elizabeth] and Prince Philip,” Quinn said.
The queen died at the age of 96 in September 2022, while the Duke of Edinburgh passed away at age 99 in 2021.
”Harry knows he will never be allowed to be a permanent part-time working royal staying six months in the States and then six months in the UK,” Quinn claimed.
“The family no longer trust him and, besides, Meghan is absolutely against it. There is far too much bad blood now for it to be even a remote possibility.”
In an interview with “Good Morning America,” Harry told host Will Reeve that he is planning to head back to England some time in the near future.
“The American citizenship is a thought that has crossed my mind, but certainly is not something that is a high priority for me right now,” he said on the program, which aired on Feb. 16.
Should Harry become a US passport holder, he may have to renounce his royal titles.
According to the US Citizen and Immigration Services policy, Harry would not be able to keep his status as a royal.
“Any applicant who has any titles of heredity or positions of nobility in any foreign state must renounce the title or the position,” the law states.
