Prince Harry’s recent solo appearances have sparked speculation that he may be distancing himself from the image he once had as part of a couple with Meghan Markle.
Royal historian Hugo Vickers weighed in on the transformation, offering his insights during an interview with The Sun.
Vickers suggested that Harry’s recent outings without Meghan signal a shift in how he’s approaching his public life.
“We’ve seen Prince Harry make several appearances without Meghan recently,” Vickers began, noting that these solo appearances are when Harry truly excels.
The expert highlighted Harry’s success in areas such as football and the Invictus Games, where he “does terribly well.” Vickers explained that Harry is much more in his element when participating in activities that align with his passions.
In contrast, Vickers suggested that Harry struggles more when it comes to the “California speak” often associated with Meghan.
“He’s much better at that frankly than when he’s sort of talking what I might call California speak, which seems to have been dictated to him by Meghan,” Vickers commented.
The royal historian didn’t hold back, expressing admiration for Harry’s solo efforts. “I commend every time he appears, I must say, and I’m sure he’s very popular,” he added.

Vickers also pointed out a key difference in how the couple operates when they are together. He observed that, “When they’re together, she seems to be the one who’s sort of moving the dialogue on.”
In these joint engagements, Meghan is often seen as the dominant voice, with Harry trailing behind her. “She seems to be the one with the voice, and he seems to be sort of meekly following in her wake,” Vickers noted.
This dynamic raises questions about Harry’s feelings toward his role in the marriage. Vickers speculated that Harry may not be entirely comfortable with this arrangement. “And you know, he may not like that so much,” he remarked.
It seems that Harry’s recent solo endeavors may be a reflection of his desire to reclaim his own voice and identity.
With increasing appearances that highlight his individual strengths, it’s clear that Harry is navigating a shift in his public persona.
Could these solo appearances be a sign that Harry is seeking more autonomy, away from the shadows of his wife’s influence? Only time will tell as the Duke of Sussex continues to redefine his image in the public eye.
