Recent actions by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have inadvertently stirred tensions within the royal family, particularly affecting Prince William’s position, according to insights from royal expert Tom Quinn.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s “faux-royal” tour of Nigeria has been perceived as a challenge to the traditional hierarchy within the royal family.
Quinn suggests that Harry’s “outcast” status has inadvertently allowed him to assume a more prominent role, particularly through his increasing involvement in foreign tours.
Quinn elaborates that Harry and Meghan have realized they can organize successful overseas trips independently, without seeking permission from senior royals.
This newfound autonomy has left William feeling sidelined and powerless, as the Sussexes garner attention and acclaim on their own terms.
Despite no longer holding official royal titles, the Sussexes continue to receive a warm reception during their public appearances, further bolstering their confidence and sense of success.

Quinn notes that Harry’s emergence in the spotlight has led to feelings of resentment from William, who may perceive his own role as diminished in comparison.
As Harry and Meghan bask in the perceived success of their recent tour, William grapples with feelings of frustration and overshadowing within the royal family dynamic.
The evolving dynamics between the brothers may signal further tensions and shifts in the future.
