He expands on the fractured relationships, saying, “I’m sure that’s a great pain to him because every time you see the King with his family, it’s very obvious he has a tactile approach.”

Cole suggests “coming out of a new box,” but he doesn’t actually say what that might be. Even so, he’s not alone in giving advice, there are plenty who have something to say about the Sussexes, whether it be to stop talking or stop pursuing media, but they aren’t necessarily saying what they would like to see or what can work for the Sussexes.
