Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are “struggling to prove their value” without the Royal Family, a commentator has claimed, as the pair will be “desperately wishing” for peace with their relatives.

The Sussexes reportedly phoned King Charles last week to wish him well turning 75 with a video of his grandchildren Archie, aged 4, and two-year-old Lilibet singing happy birthday.

Speaking on GB News, presenter Mark Dolan asked royal and showbiz commentator Kinsey Schofield if she thought the California-based Prince Harry and Meghan were making a “peace deal”.

She replied: “I mean, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex desperately wish it was. It’s Page Six that’s reporting that Harry and Meghan had a turning point conversation with King Charles after that alleged birthday snub.

“OK, here, let me tell you what happened. What we’re hearing over on this side is that Harry and Meghan are struggling to prove their value without association to the Royal Family. You know, look at Meghan’s Archetypes podcast, where she did try to herself from the Royal Family. It was Megan talking to Paris Hilton and Mariah and all of these American celebrities who did not do well analytically.

“That’s why they lost their Spotify deal. What did blow up, even though it was a year ago, was their Netflix series, where all they did was trash the Royal family. So to buyers, to people like Amazon, who might be looking at them for a podcast series. For Netflix. They’re looking at them going really where their value is, which is their connection to the Royal family. Harry and Meghan need to get back in the good graces of the Royal Family.”
