Royal Family LIVE: Prince Harry’s blunt six-words could reveal real reason he left Firm
Prince Harry made a blunt six-word comment about Prince Archie’s future just months before he stepped down as a senior working royal, it has been reported
The Duke of Sussex, who left the Royal Family with his wife Meghan Markle at the start of 2020, appeared to hint at his departure during a conversation with his close friend, Dr Jane Goodall. The anthropologist and conversationalist, who has been a longtime friend of Harry’s, came to visit the new parents and their then-newborn son, as reported by the Mirror.
Upon arriving at Frogmore Cottage to interview Harry for a special Forces for Change edition of Vogue magazine, royal expert Robert Lacey claimed Dr Goodall was allowed to hold Archie – after Meghan cradled the sweet newborn in her arms.
Recalling Ms Goodall’s words in his book, ‘Battle of Brothers’, the author wrote: “He was very tiny and very sleepy. I think I was one of the first people to cuddle him outside the family. I made Archie do the Queen’s wave saying, ‘I suppose he’ll have to learn this. Harry’s reaction brooked no doubt, ‘No! He’s not growing up like that’.
