Royal expert Russell highlights the growing divide within the royal family, sparked by Harry and Meghan’s rift. Their once-promising future within the monarchy now seems uncertain. Despite celebrating their sixth anniversary, their relationship with the royal family has plummeted. Russell suggests this feud could escalate, potentially leading to the establishment of two distinct royal entities.
The lavish wedding of Harry and Meghan in 2018 at Windsor Castle drew comparisons to William and Kate’s ceremony.
Russell speculates on the couple’s future, noting the heightened scrutiny they face, possibly prompting their move towards a more conservative stance. He ponders whether their actions aim to distance themselves from past controversies and criticism of the royal family.
Amid discussions about the couple’s potential tours and business ventures, the historian reflects on their evolving public image. While they’ve faced backlash, there’s a chance for redemption, possibly through a US tour. As for reconciliation with William and Kate, it remains uncertain, dependent on the sincerity of apologies and the willingness of all parties involved.
