The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle need to find a way to ‘thrive and not just survive’, a royal expert has exclusively claimed after the couple’s unofficial ‘royal tour’
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle need to find a way to “thrive and not just survive”, a royal expert has said.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stepped back from their royal duties in 2020, with them announcing that they would become financially independent from the monarchy. The couple then moved from Windsor in England to Montecito in the United States, with them setting up lives for themselves and their young family.
Since making the move away from the British Royal Family, and the United Kingdom, the Sussexes have sat down for televised interviews with the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Good Morning America, worked on podcasts and documentaries, and Prince Harry even released his memoir Spare.

The Sussexes’ projects have caused a stir among the public, and within the Royal Family too, causing a rift to form and deepen over time. And now an expert has warned that they “must stop offending” the royals in order for them to “thrive and not just survive”.
Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, royal expert and commentator Richard Fitzwilliams said: “If they are to thrive and not just survive they must avoid offending the Royal Family, their attacks have cost both them and the royals popularity and made them appear extremely destructive and also hypocritical over the issue of privacy.”
He then speculated: “Will we see future trips like Nigeria? Will Archie and Lili accompany them? The world ’s press was fascinated, but that was because they are members of the royal family. However, they have been unpredictable and it will be fascinating to see where they take matters from here.”
This comes after the Sussexes jetted to Nigeria from the UK for a 72-hour-whistle-stop tour of the West African country. Before jetting from London to Nigeria, Harry was in the capital city for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games, with his wife, Meghan, meeting him at Heathrow before they flew to Africa for their unofficial “royal tour” in all but name.
