Ahead of his upcoming visit to the UK in May to mark the 10-year anniversary of his Invictus Games, Prince Harry has seemingly bid farewell to his royal life once and for all, sending a stern message to his father, King Charles, and the royal family.
Royal author Tom Quinn revealed to The Mirror that Prince Harry, deeply hurt by his father’s “vindictive” decision to evict him from Frogmore Cottage, was left “furious” and in tears.
In response to this perceived betrayal, Prince Harry took a symbolic step by changing his primary residence from the UK to the US, with the change backdated to June 29, 2023 – the exact date of his eviction.
Quinn highlighted that the eviction from Frogmore Cottage, which also affected Harry’s wife Meghan Markle and their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, served as the “last straw” for the Duke of Sussex.
Despite meeting his cancer-stricken father in February, sparking speculation of a potential truce, Quinn suggested that the rift between Harry and the royal family may be irreparable.
“Even if Harry begged to be allowed back to help out – even if his father King Charles became so ill he was unable to carry out his duties – whatever happens, the call to help will never go out to Montecito,” Quinn explained.
The decision to make the US his primary residence signifies Prince Harry’s final goodbye to his royal life, according to Quinn.

This move underscores the depth of the rift within the royal family and suggests that Prince Harry may be forging a new path independent of his royal ties.
As Prince Harry prepares to return to the UK for the Invictus Games anniversary, the significance of his symbolic gesture and its implications for his relationship with the royal family remain palpable.
Despite the possibility of reconciliation, it appears that Prince Harry is determined to chart his own course, firmly establishing his identity beyond the confines of royal tradition.
