Prince Harry once labelled Balmoral “paradise” as rumours keep swirling over whether King Charles will invite him and his family to the beloved estate in Scotland. But one royal expert claims he already knows the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s verdict.
The monarch usually retreats to Scotland for his summer holidays and it is a tradition that members of the Royal Family visit him, usually after an invitation.
While no formal invitation has been confirmed, Harry and Meghan Markle are tipped to receive one, however, it is not clear whether they will accept. In his memoir Spare, the duke claimed he felt happy in Balmoral.
He wrote: “To me, Balmoral was always simply Paradise. A cross between Disney World and some sacred Druid grove.
“I was always too busy fishing, shooting, running up and down ‘the hill’ to notice anything off about the Feng Shui of the old castle. What I’m trying to say is, I was happy there.” Now royal author Tom Quinn said he’s certain the Montecito couple will decline any invitation to Balmoral.

He told the Mirror: “King Charles will issue the traditional invitation to Harry and Meghan to spend part of the summer at Balmoral, but safe in the knowledge that Harry and Meghan will make their excuses and decline.
“Relaxing at the 50,000-acre private estate might be just the place to let bygones be bygones, but Camilla will be dreading anything that threatens the calm her husband needs to continue his recovery from cancer.”
Mr Quinn added that Harry’s frosty relationship with his older brother Prince William could also prevent him from accepting. The two feuding brothers are said to not be on “speaking terms” after Harry and Meghan’s scathing attacks against the Firm.
The expert explained: “Harry would love to see Kate and his expressions of concern for her are deeply felt but he knows that he can’t see Kate without seeing his brother so it’s not going to happen.”
