Prince Harry<\/a>\u00a0and Meghan are in a ‘crisis’ as she has not achieved ‘the status she craves’, royal author warns.\u00a0<\/p>\n

British writer and former BBC<\/a>\u00a0journalist, Tom Bower has claimed he will reveal further bombshells about the couple in an upcoming book about the Sussexes’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The author released his first book about the pair, ‘Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between Windsors’ in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Discussing his ‘new material’ on the royal couple, he alleged the duo were constantly fighting for themselves, describing them as ‘relentless’ and ‘restless’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now, he has revealed the pair are in ‘a crisis’ as Meghan desires to be a ‘billionaire celebrity’, while Harry has no understanding of the world of fame.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Detailing how the Prince has never had to worry about having a job or a car, Mr Bower claims Harry doesn’t comprehend Meghan’s perspective.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘He doesn’t understand where she’s coming from, which is that she worked phenomenally hard, struggled hard, and was constantly humiliated, and wants the security of finance and status,’ Mr Bower told The Mirror.<\/a><\/p>\n

‘She hasn’t got the status she craves, she hasn’t got the pulling power. He’s stuck in California<\/a>\u00a0clinging on to his royal status, as is she.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bower claimed reconciliation between Harry and his family was ‘totally unrealistic’, adding: ‘There is zero chance of reconciliation because there is irreconcilable anger on the part of William and Kate.’<\/p>\n

The royal author also alleged that while the pair had been ‘wounded’, they continue to fight back, with their desire for survival continuing to grow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

MailOnline has approached Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s representatives for comment.<\/p>\n

It comes after court documents revealed, Harry requested police protection after a threat was made against him by Al Qaeda.<\/p>\n

Last week, his lawyer told a public hearing that the terror group had called for him to \u2018murdered\u2019 after his tax-payer funded security arrangements were downgraded.<\/p>\n

While several hours of the hearing were made public, part of the evidence was heard behind closed doors, with a summary released on Thursday.<\/p>\n

It stated: \u2018The appellant confirmed that he had requested certain protection after a threat was made against him by al Qaeda.\u2019<\/p>\n

Harry, 40, travelled from his home in Montecito, California, to attend the two-day hearing in London to challenge the decision to remove his automatic right to security when in the UK.<\/p>\n

His barrister, Shaheed Fatima KC, said in a written submission to the court that Harry\u2019s security team were informed the terrorist group had published a document which stated his \u2018assassination would please the Muslim community\u2019.<\/p>\n

An exact date for Al Qaeda\u2019s assassination threat was not revealed in Harry\u2019s legal submission.<\/p>\n

But in 2023 it was reported that he received death threats when he wrote in his tell-all autobiography Spare about killing 25 Taliban fighters while fighting in Afghanistan, comparing the victims to chess pieces.<\/p>\n

He has appealed the decision to downgrade his security arrangements, which were changed in February 2020 after he and wife Meghan stopped being working royals.<\/p>\n

The newly released court documents also revealed the prince\u2019s claims his \u2018bespoke\u2019 security arrangements were \u2018inadequate, inappropriate and ineffective\u2019.<\/p>\n

It said: \u2018Since he stepped back in February 2020, the Appellant has still not been provided with a RMB [risk management board] analysis.<\/p>\n

\u2018The protective security that until 2020 had been applied to him has changed and is inadequate, inappropriate and ineffective.\u2019<\/p>\n

The Duke and his wife Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, reportedly believed that establishing a happy life of their own would help thaw relations with the Royal Family.<\/p>\n

The couple saw the removal of their police protection as a way of trying to strong arm them into returning to the UK – since they felt that without security, visiting Britain would paint a target on their back.<\/p>\n

Harry took the decision to take legal action against the Government to have his official security reinstated.<\/p>\n

The Duke said that the case was even more significant than his legal battles against the tabloid press that he once called his ‘life’s work’.<\/p>\n

Last month, Harry also stepped down from his Sentable charity, which was founded in honour of his mother, Diana the Princess of Wales<\/a>, in 2006, with Prince Seeiso of Lesotho to help young people and children in southern Africa.<\/p>\n

Harry last visited Lesotho in October 2024 but it was his first in six years. He had jetted over more frequently beforehand – making four trips between June 2010 and the end of 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry\u00a0and Meghan are in a ‘crisis’ as she has not achieved ‘the status she craves’, royal author…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":32562,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[192,557,92,1281,12,447,5105,7710,519,448],"class_list":{"0":"post-32561","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-bbc","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-dailymail","11":"tag-meghan-markle","12":"tag-news","13":"tag-prince-harry","14":"tag-royal","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-royals"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114363893328469501","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32561","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=32561"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32561\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/32562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32561"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32561"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32561"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
