Royal | News - Prince Ricardo De La Cerda
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may no longer be working royals, however it is safe to say they are still very much in the public eye. Despite quitting life as senior royals in 2020 and relocating overseas to California, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex still make daily headlines around the globe as the public, experts and insiders continue to evaluate their lives, their royal relationships, and their business ventures.
Just this month, one royal author has claimed that one of the reasons Harry, 40, was first drawn to his wife Meghan, 43, was because he was “entranced” by what she could offer him. Tom Quinn, who has written a new book Yes Ma’am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants, said that the prince saw a life different to the royal one he had been born into. When speaking to Fox News Digital, Quinn said: “I think Harry was, in a way, entranced by the fact that Meghan was able to offer him an alternative world from the one he’d always known.”
He also went on to say that some of Harry’s friends believed the duchess, who married the prince in 2018, made him “too woke”, however he was already “entranced” by her.
Quinn claimed: “One of Harry’s best friends said, ‘I can’t understand what Harry sees in her. She’s a tree hugger. She’s so woke.’
“For Harry’s traditional friends, being woke was not a good thing.”
Despite facing various questions and criticisms about their relationship, Harry and Meghan have been happily married since 2018 and have now settled in the California neighbourhood of Montecito.
