Calorogu Shark Media. Hello and welcome through Palace Intry again your host Mark Francis. Prince Harry is reportedly petrified both of losing Meghan, Duchess of sussexon of the Duchess herself, according to royal experts. Speaking on this week's episode of The Sun's Royal Exclusive, Royal editor Matt Wilkinson was joined by news dot com dot AU's a Royal reporter Bronte Coy and Royal biographer Hugo Vickers, who offered candid assessments

of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's relationship. Vickers started with Meghan's cooking show, saying, there are other people who are much better at telling you these things. There are other people who are better at doing cookery programs. I mean they're sort of latching onto things well she is in particular. It's just hard to see where it's going.

Turning to Prince Harry, Vickers remarked, I hate to say it, but my feeling at the end of the day is that Prince Harry is petrified of her and petrified of losing her. He's been complicit in a lot of things that have gone on, although I think he's been made to do many things. Bronti. Coy agreed with the sentiment, stating, of course we don't know what's going on in their relationship. But with that said, even just speculating on that, you'd say he is someone who is in such a unique position.

There are only a small handful of royals and people that have the profile that he has, and you have to imagine that if that relationship did fall apart for whatever reason down the line, really where does that leave him. You can imagine that he would be scared of that. To this, Vickers replied, well, he has to come home eventually if he can. The King's left the door wide

open for him. But then there's this issue that Prince Harry seems to think the royal family should be apologizing to him, whereas it should be the other way around. The King's got a lot of other things on his mind, but he's never responded to anything. He's left open. We don't know whether anything's going on behind the scenes. He's got much more hope of reconciliation with the King than

with his brother. A former friend of Megan's, British socialite Lizzie Cundy, who has previously claimed she was dropped by Meghan shortly after the then actress began dating Prince Harry, offering her withering assessment During an appearance at the Diva Awards in London, she told Mail Online She's desperate to be liked, desperate to be powerful, and desperate to trump the Royals with anything she does. Sadly, for her, you can't buy likability and she's lacking in that by the

bucket load. Cundy also criticized Harry, saying he looks deeply unhappy. I think he is missing his family and obviously worried about his father's health. A former fan of the Duchess has admitted that one highly curated moment with in love Meghan was enough to turn her admiration into irritation. Television presenter Makita Oliver, speaking on her podcast Miss Me with the co host Lily Allen, confessed that Meghan's seemingly effortless

balloon arch tutorial tipped her over the edge. I loved Meghan Markham, but I suddenly stopped liking her for a minute. The offending scene, which aired during an episode in which Meghan and actress Mindy Kayling plan a children's garden party struck Oliver as tone deaf. It was this casual approach to something quite tricky and complicated, she explained. I felt like, if I don't know how to make a balloon arch as well as her, I'd probably feel a bit of

a crap mum for that day. Lily Allen chimed in with her own party strategy, less glossy but evidently effective. I just buy a few balloons and let them bother around the room, she said. The kids love it. In a rather surprising revelation, it has emerged that just prior to meeting Meghan Markle in the summer of twenty sixteen, Harry was nearly sat up with none other than Courtney Kardashian.

Comedian Katherine Ryan, and speaking to Hello, recounted that she once attempted to play matchmaker at a party in London attended by Prince Harry's cousin, Princess Beatrice. I walked in and saw Courtney Kardashian with Princess Beatrice, Ryan said, I went straight over to her because I knew who she was.

I'm so invested in the Kardashians and their reality show at the time, Courtney was in and on again off again relationship with Scott Disick, the father of her three eldest children, Mason, Penelope and ragn Meanwhile, Prince Harry's previous relationships with Chelsea Davy and Cresida Bonus had concluded by twenty fourteen. Ryan recalled telling Courtney, you need to leave Scott, to which Kardashian responded, how can I. He's in my house right now. Ryan continued, I told her, don't go

back to the house. You need to leave him. During their conversation, Courtney asked who she might date instead. According to Ryan, she did not hesitate, suggesting Prince Harry. Maybe. Reflecting on the idea, Ryan remarked, she was right there in the UK, it seemed obvious. It remains unclear whether Prince Harry and Courtney Kardashian ever met or even spoke a Kardashian also seems like an odd choice for someone

whose life mission seems to be taking on the paparazzi. Indeed, prior to meeting Meghan, Prince Harry had spoken openly about the difficulty of finding someone willing to endure the intense scrutiny that comes with life in the Royal Spotlight. As quoted by Hello, he said, I'm not so much searching for someone to fulfill the role, but finding someone who would be willing to take it on, which we all

know he has more palace just a moment. A sources claimed that Harry and Meghan are eager to trigger a truce with William and Kat as Harry seems to rebuild times with his family. Speaking to The New York Times, the insider said, Meghan's desperate to come across as the bigger person and end this feud between them. Appearing like some sort of royal savior could only do her image good.

The source added their hope is that Princess Kate's return to work might take some of the heat off them and possibly trigger a truce with her and William and with the King too. It has further been alleged that when Catherine faced criticism over an edited photograph posted for Mother's Day in twenty twenty four, Harry encouraged Meghan to

extend an olive branch. According to an insider speaking to Okay magazine, Harry thinks it might be the perfect time for Megan to reach out to Kate because she knows what it's like to come under fire from the public and the press. Harry wants his family to return to the UK, and he knows that the only way that will happen is if Meghan can repair her fractured relationship

with Kate. It is understood that Harry has made multiple attempts to re establish contact with his family, with claims that he's been phoning and messaging both the King and the Prince of Wales on multiple occasions without receiving a response. Royal expert Royer Nicker in The Sunday Times wrote, a friend of Harry's once told me that while he was still a working royal, he harbored a Prince Andrew complex

of slipping down the pecking order and becoming irrelevant. Harry has always been in such a rush to make an impact because he thinks he has a limited shelf life before the public want to hear more from Prince George and his siblings, and he worries that after that he'll turn into this uncle. Roya added, Let's be clear, Harry is certainly no Andrew, though they share a stubbornness that raises hackles in the royal fold. If Charles is changing

course with Andrew. He could also try giving it to go with Harry, who has let it be known that calls to par go unanswered, and he now learns about his father's health from the newspapers.
