Last month, representatives of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were spotted in London engaging in clandestine discussions with King Charles&#8217; aides.<\/p>\n<p>The Sussexes&#8217; team included their chief communications officer, Meredith Maines, and Liam Maguire, who oversees their PR operations in the UK. Representing the <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" title=\"King Charles III\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/king-charles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">King<\/a> was his communications secretary, Tobyn Andreae.<\/p>\n<p>Amidst these developments, there are claims that the <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" title=\"Prince Harry\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/prince-harry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Duke<\/a> has proposed sharing his official itinerary to avoid overlapping with significant Royal events, an offer that some Royal observers view as a significant conciliatory gesture.<\/p>\n<p>However, a Royal commentator has harshly criticized the Duke, suggesting that the couple is attempting to &#8220;kind of get back&#8221; into the Royal circle.<\/p>\n<p>Samara Gill, speaking to The Sun, said: &#8220;I think he [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/prince-harry\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prince Harry<\/a>] is trying to get reconciliation before the King goes.&#8221;, reports the <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/royal\/2090232\/prince-harry-queen-elizabeth-wish-peace-talks\" target=\"_blank\">Express<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>She referenced <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/prince-harry\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prince Harry<\/a>&#8216;s remarks from a BBC interview, where he expressed concern about his father&#8217;s longevity: &#8220;I mean, he did obviously say in that BBC interview, &#8216;I don&#8217;t know how much longer my father has left&#8217;, and obviously dropped a bunch more bombshells in that interview.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gill found it surprising that after such a recent interview, they are now looking to coordinate schedules and find a way for Harry to return. &#8220;Though it wasn&#8217;t that long ago, so it&#8217;s kind of crazy now that they&#8217;re trying to share diary slots and trying to figure out how he can kind of get back in with the royal fold, because Queen Elizabeth II did say, &#8216;you can&#8217;t have it both ways, you can&#8217;t be one foot in, one foot out royals. I don&#8217;t want that.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She concluded by saying, &#8220;And I think that this is really betraying what she wanted for them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Ms. Gill commented that the Sussexes must make a choice about their Royal status, arguing that their current &#8220;hybrid&#8221; position is untenable.<\/p>\n<p>She remarked: &#8220;They&#8217;re like typical millennial royals who want to do, like, gig economy jobs in the royal family or something.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t exactly know what their whole plan is.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a very confused strategy. And I do agree that they&#8217;ve got a better team who&#8217;s clearly trying to fashion something out of this, but I just think it&#8217;s a very confused, dilapidated thing and I don&#8217;t see it going anywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Royal expert has criticized Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for allegedly seeking a compromise that goes against&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":324227,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7721,7719,7718,7720,1281,447,1763,7710,519,7711],"class_list":{"0":"post-324226","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-duchess-of-sussex","10":"tag-duke-of-sussex","11":"tag-harry","12":"tag-meghan","13":"tag-meghan-markle","14":"tag-prince-harry","15":"tag-queen-elizabeth-ii","16":"tag-royal-families","17":"tag-royal-family","18":"tag-uk-royal-family"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114985462206750375","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324226","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=324226"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/324226\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/324227"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=324226"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=324226"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=324226"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
