The Uncertain Future of Prince Harry: Can He Regain His Constitutional Role?
As the keys to Frogmore Cottage were handed over by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, experts are warning that Harry will struggle to assert any constitutional role in the UK.
The Duke's public image has taken a serious hit, and it seems the British public has little sympathy for him.
Renowned Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams highlights that Harry and Meghan's attacks on the monarchy have come at a price.
Their decision to go rogue and turn on the institution that once embraced them has left them with abysmal popularity ratings in Britain.
It's no wonder they have very few supporters left in the country.
While they may not care about their British popularity right now, Fitzwilliams suggests that they might regret their actions in the future as events unfold and their brand faces challenges.
Tom Bower, another expert in all things Royal, goes even further, stating that Harry's constitutional position would only become relevant if he returns to Britain.
However, Bower believes that even with King Charles' support, Harry's unpopularity would make it nearly impossible for him to assert any constitutional role or for anyone to ask him to fulfill his duties.
The damage caused by the Sussexes and the negative impact on the Royal family would make it best for the King to formally terminate Harry's constitutional relationship with Britain.
Bower argues that this would undermine the Sussexes' money-making endeavors that exploit their Royal status.
Now let's delve into the topic of Harry's role as Councillor of State.
Reports have circulated that Harry would lose this role due to his eviction and the fact that he no longer has a British residence.
However, constitutional experts have clarified that Harry can still be legally domiciled in the UK as a domicile of origin.
This means that even though he currently resides in a luxurious mansion in California, he could potentially retain his status as a Councillor of State.
The role allows him to act as a standing king for Charles when the King is absent or temporarily unavailable.
The question arises, what does the future hold for Harry in the constitutional role?
While experts differ in opinions, it seems that Harry could remain one of the reserve bench for now, as there's a possibility he may return to the UK in the future.
However, given his current unpopularity and the damage caused by his actions, it's uncertain whether he would ever be called upon to fulfill his duties.
It is clear that Prince Harry's eviction from Frogmore Cottage has raised questions about his future within the Royal family.
His unpopularity and controversial actions have left him in a precarious position, with little support from the British public.
As events unfold, it remains to be seen whether he can regain his constitutional role or if he will be permanently sidelined.
The decision ultimately lies with King Charles, who may choose to formally terminate Harry's relationship with Britain, undermining the Sussexes' money-making endeavors.
For now, Harry's role as Councillor of State hangs in the balance, with the possibility of retaining his status despite residing overseas.
