Prince Harry‘s solo trips to New York, London and Lesotho helped the Duke of Susđ eđ„’s popularity, and insiders think the royal is rushing home to have a “crunch talk” with Meghan Markle about their next steps professionally.
âHarry is due back in California this week, and a debrief is expected following his travels,” a source told an outlet. âThereâs a lot to discuss so the team has been summoned for a meeting toward the end of the week.”
âThe success of Harryâs solo endeavors has shown that a new strategy might be needed,” they added.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were called a ‘flop.’
OK! previously royal experts viewed Harry’s decision to attend various charity events without Meghan as intentional.
âIt would have been the classic thing for Meghan to be meeting with the children,” royal commentator Charlotte Griffiths told GB News.
âItâs amazing she wasnât there. But I think itâs very deliberate,” she noted. “I think Harry is trying to remind us all that he started this incredible childrenâs charity in Africa for children who were born with AIDS.”
When the Susđ eđ„es first moved to the U.S., they secured contracts in Hollywood as a joint brand, but they’re now expected to pursue separate endeavors after a series of failures.
âHe wants to remind us that was who he was before Megxit, before the drama,” Griffiths shared. “I think leaving Meghan out of it is possibly something they have decided together, because they donât want the king of hysteria that happens when theyâre together.”
âHarry really wants to remind people, âThis was me before, I was a good guy and I was really food with children,'” she noted.
While Meghan continues to focus on American Riviera Orchard, Harry will return to being seen as a humanitarian.
âThis definitely feels like he is upping his game to cement his position as a serious player on the international stage,â an anonymous source told an outlet. âHeâs always been desperate to be taken seriously and people I know say his fall from grace will really have got to him.â
Harry flew to Lesotho for his non-profit Sentebale, but Meghan skipped the lengthy trip, as she’s juggling caring for her two kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
âThere may be a good reason she canât leave the kids, but sheâs never been to Lesotho and that surprises me â it is like a second home [to Harry],â they said, noting that the âroyal family there is like his second family.â
âSentebale is such a big part of his life, youâd think he would want to share it,” they added.
While in the southern region of Africa, Harry was able to highlight his diplomacy skills.
âHarry is treading this very difficult line between celebrity and royalty stillâŠhe looked very dignified in Lesotho but itâs a country heâs got a lot of connection with,” editor Richard Eden said on “Palace Confidential.” “But back in America, he’s still tried to play the royal jester, the joker when he goes on these talk shows.”
