Prince Harry wants to branch away from producing his television documentaries and could even be thinking about returning to the royal fold, according to a royal expert.

It comes as the Duke of Sussex and his wife have made multiple solo appearances as they focus on individual projects and charity endeavours, with Prince Harry set to conduct another solo visit to New York next week.

Royal expert, Richard Eden claims Palace sources “have made clear” Prince Harry wants to make a bigger difference to his charitable work.

As stated in the Daily Mail, he writes: “Palace officials are increasingly convinced that Harry wants to resume his old way of life, when he felt he was using his privileged position to make a difference for worthwhile causes.”

He also claims one source told him: “Harry’s heart is not in the TV stuff – anyone can see that.”

The royal expert also suggests that Harry’s absence from the polo series trailer, even though he is a keen player, is an effort to step away from the Netflix scene.

In the trailer, only his and Meghan’s name appears, in a production credit that reads “executive produced by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle the Duke and Duchess of Sussex”.

Eden claims one courtier told him: “If the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are prepared to give up their private work and return to royal life, they would be welcomed back.”

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are releasing their latest Netflix project on December 10 titled Polo. Netflix states the show will “follow elite global players on and off the field as they complete int he high-stakes US Open Polo Championship.”

However, Harry and Meghan’s debut series, self-titled ‘Harry & Meghan’, was a massive hit on the streaming platform and broke several Netflix records.

Prince Harry last saw his father King Charles in February 2024 after his public announcement of his cancer diagnosis. He flew to the UK for a brief visit to see the King at Clarence House, but only stayed in London for 25 hours.

Tensions between Harry and Prince William remain high after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex revealed a number of accusations and claims in the Netflix docuseries about their time in the Firm.

Harry last saw William in August when he travelled to the UK to attend the private service of his uncle, the late Lord Robert Fellowes. Both princes attended the funeral at St Mary’s Church in Norfolk “discreetly” to pay tribute to the brother-in-law of Diana, Princess of Wales.

The reunion to honour their uncle seemingly didn’t bridge the gap between Prince Harry and Prince William, with a local claiming they were not seen speaking to each other and “kept their distance” during the service, as reported by The Sun.
