Prince Harry recently sat down for an interview with Hoda Kotb ahead of the Invictus Games, where he shared details from his life in the United States.
During the interview, Prince Harry said that Montecito is his home for now. And he also said that he’s happy in America.
But in his column for Closer UK, royal biographer Duncan Larcombe said that Prince Harry might have not told the whole truth during the interview. After all, it was evident that he wasn’t really happy in the United States.
“While Harry is claiming he’s happy in his new life, his face looked totally at odds with what he saw saying. He seemed bitter and empty. I imagine anyone watching who used to know him will be worried about him after that interview. He just seemed desperate to justify his betrayal and convince the world and himself that it was worth it and he’s now happy. I imagine Meghan’s really happy, but Harry looks more lost than ever,” he said.
The royal author also said that Prince Harry might be stressing over his deal with Netflix and not because he hasn’t produced any content for the platform. Rather, the Duke of Sussex might have to justify his and Markle’s hefty price tag now that Netflix is struggling financially.
“Netflix’s financial issues have upped the pressure on Harry and Meghan. It’s great that they at least seem to be doing something related to their Netflix and Spotify deals. But a cynic would say that it was extremely convenient that while they were filming their new show, they also decided to pop by to see the queen. That’ll be the type that Netflix is after, as Harry and Meghan’s main appeal is their royal link. You can almost imagine them talking to the camera after meeting with her, like a reality show. It’s almost as if they’ve ensnared the queen to boost their coffers,” he said.
However, it is important to note that Larcombe’s observations are entirely his own. There is no indication that Prince Harry and Markle’s visit to the queen will be included in their Netflix documentary. After all, the couple previously revealed that the project will center on the Invictus Games and not the royal family.
Additionally, Markle’s project for Netflix is an animated series and not about the royal family either.
