Prince Harry’s “deepest upset” has been revealed by a royal expert amid ongoing tensions with the Royal Family that have been growing since his departure from royal life in 2020.

The Duke has experienced an increasingly strained relationship with his family since stepping down as a senior working royal with Meghan Markle, and subsequently making a series of bombshell claims against them.

Now, a royal author has revealed the true cost of this estrangement on other members of the family and how this has affected Prince Harry.

Royal expert Tom Quinn said the feud is now impacting Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet – their father’s “deepest upset”.

He told The Mirror: “We know that Harry’s deepest upset concerns not just his lack of relationship with George, Charlotte and Louis, but also his own children’s lack of a relationship with their cousins.”

Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s cousins are Prince George, Prince Louis, and Princess Charlotte – the three children of Prince William and Princess Kate.

Prince Harry hasn’t seen his brother Prince William recently as his rift with the royals rumbles on, and that doesn’t appear to be changing any time soon, so their children don’t have any relationship with each other.

While their children could provide a way to end the Royal Family feud, Quinn believes Prince Harry and Meghan still “cannot see a way” to end it and bring about a reconciliation.

He said: “Harry and Meghan would love to get around the problem – they would love it if the cousins could meet regularly and have a positive relationship as they grow up.

“But they cannot see a way to do it while they themselves, Harry and Meghan, are estranged. Harry has said that he hopes the cousins can at least be friends as adults.”

It’s not just Prince Harry that has regrets over the current feud, according to Quinn. He claimed Prince William has also been hit with a “sad reminder” of just how much has been lost, and it also involves his children.

Quinn explained: “William’s hints that his son George might follow in his footsteps and become a pilot will certainly remind Harry of everything he is missing.

“After all, Harry was himself a helicopter pilot and would love to entertain his nephew with tales of his own time in the air. It’s a sad reminder that he has no relationship at all with George.”
