Britons Left Aghast as Prince Harry’s Startling Revelation Shakes Royal Family

Prince Harry, the second son of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, has long been accustomed to a life of privilege as a member of the British royal family.

However, recent revelations suggest that Harry's royal status has left him feeling embarrassed and yearning for freedom.

In January 2020, Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, shocked the world with their decision to step down as senior royals.

While Meghan has often been blamed for influencing Harry's choice, it appears that he had been contemplating this move for years.

In a candid interview with Dax Shepard on the Armchair Expert podcast, Harry admitted that he had realized early on that royal life was not what he wanted.

“I don't want this job, I don't want to be here,” he confessed.

Following their departure from the royal family, Harry and Meghan relocated to California, settling in the idyllic town of Montecito.

Due to the pandemic and ongoing tensions within the royal family, Harry has made only a few visits back to the UK, while Meghan has not returned at all since their move to the United States.

According to Christopher Anderson, author of the book “Brothers and Wives: Inside the Private Lives of William, Kate, Harry, and Meghan,” Harry has always felt a sense of embarrassment about his royal status.

This sentiment, coupled with his marriage to Meghan, made a life in America all the more appealing.

“Harry has always seemed slightly embarrassed by his position at the top of Britain's class system,” Anderson revealed.

Prior to his departure, Harry served in the British Army from 2005 to 2015, undertaking two deployments to Afghanistan where he fought alongside fellow soldiers against Taliban insurgents.

This military experience further shaped Harry's perspective and desire for a different kind of life.

Andrew Morton, Princess Diana's biographer, weighed in on the couple's departure during an episode of the Royal US podcast.

He described Meghan as a team player who had made significant efforts to integrate into the royal family.

Her departure, Morton argued, was a loss for the monarchy, as she represented a connection to a section of the population that the royal family struggled to reach.

Despite speculation about a potential return to royal life, it appears unlikely in the near future.

In February 2021, the palace announced that Harry and Meghan would not resume their roles as working members of the royal family.

This decision solidified their commitment to forging their own path, separate from the constraints and expectations of the monarchy.

The revelations surrounding Prince Harry's feelings of embarrassment and desire for freedom have left many Britons astounded.

The royal family has experienced a small tragedy, losing the Duchess of Sussex, who had shown a willingness to be integrated into their ranks.

Harry and Meghan's departure signifies their determination to chart their own course, leaving behind the world of royalty and embracing a new chapter in their lives.
