Prince Harry could utilise his memoirs to try and "turn around" the public's negative view of him after his older brother, Prince William, ascends to the throne, a royal commentator has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex sent shockwaves around the world when he released his memoir, Spare, back in January 2023, which included a number of explosive claims about his life within the Firm.

Harry has previously teased he had enough content to write two books and now royal commentator Kinsey Schofield claimed that the Prince will wait until his father, King Charles, "inevitably" passes away and his brother becomes King.

She told her programme Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered: "I do think he would write about his family again. He was waiting to publish a book after [Queen Elizabeth died]. Originally they were saying there was going to be another publication after the [late] Queen died."

Ms Schofield: "I suspect that maybe he would release a book after his father passed away. Especially if Prince William continues to keep him at arm's length. Because what would the repercussions be if Prince William pushed you out of the fold?"

Meghan Markle issued 'powerful' Archie and Lilibet warning: 'Questions will be asked'

Meghan Markle has been warned that her children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet may resent her keeping them away from the Royal Family.

Speaking after watching Trooping the Colour, her father Thomas Markle said: "It struck me as very sad that Meghan and Harry's kids are being denied the right to know their cousins, who look like fantastic children, or take part in things like Trooping the Colour, which is their birthright."

Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield then spoke out in an episode of Pump Up The Jam, where she concurred with Mr Markle's concerns.

She pointed out: "They [Archie and Lilibet] are inevitably going to ask questions about why they didn't have the life that they see their cousins having, that historically they can see other children in their position having."

Prince Harry warned against brutal move from which 'there is no going back'

Prince Harry has been warned against writing another book about the Royal Family as it could make reconciling with them impossible.

Speaking on Kinsey Schofield's YouTube show, TalkTV presenter Cristo Foufas said: "Whether it be biscuits, whether it be Rosè, whether it be a podcast that failed, whether it is being the CEO of an eco-travel firm while taking private jets...they will literally do anything for money.

"Spare is one of Harry's most successful ventures from a monetary point of view, from a worldwide publicity point of view, whether that is good or bad publicity is another matter.

"Obviously there has been a lot of talk about a sequel. Well Jennie Bond, a very well-respected royal expert, says that she believes Harry does not want to write another book.

"Not because of the lack of monetary value but because it would be absolutely the final nail in the coffin between him and his family.

"There would be no going back from this. This would be it."

Inside the Royal Box at Wimbledon where guests enjoy fine cuisine and chat to celebs

EXCLUSIVE: The Royal Box at Wimbledon is the most exclusive place to watch the tournament and mingle with the Royal Family.

But the Royal Box is not the only luxury suite available in SW19, as a source gave Express.co.uk the lowdown: "The best areas to be in at Wimbledon are without doubt the Evian suite, Ralph Lauren's box and the Champagne Lanson suite.

"But THE place to be seen is without doubt the Royal Box, where past Wimbledon champions and celebrities sit alongside members of the Royal Family.

"The Evian suite has been a massive draw for VIPs looking to cool off during the tennis since 2008. Guests are treated to canapes, champagne and prime seats in Court One or Centre Court to watch the matches.

"Lady Kitty Spencer, the Middletons and other society figures have all been spotted in the enclosure through the years."

Prince Harry told admitting one ‘huge mistake' is key to ending feud with Royal Family

Prince Harry will need to admit he "made a mistake" if he ever wants to make things up with the Royal Family, according to an expert.

Former royal butler Grant Harrold told the New York Post: "The only way I see this [reconciliation] happening is a public statement from Harry, where you come out and say that you were in a bad space and that [Spare] was a mistake.

"I don't think that's going to happen. Some bad things were said, and some families never patch things up, and that’s how it is forevermore."

Royal Family not willing to sit down with Meghan Markle at this time

EXCLUSIVE: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may need to wait until the right moment if they want to reconcile with the Royal Family.

A source claimed that while Harry is more willing to move on, Meghan still has issues she wants to resolve.

They told Express.co.uk: "Harry is more willing to move on, let’s just say that. It’s not a case of Meghan being difficult, she genuinely feels hurt and would like some kind of sit down to hash things through - but that’s not something the other side is willing to consider at this time."

Queen Camilla's terse two-word order to Princess Kate over Charlotte and George

Queen Camilla was left a little annoyed by younger members of the Royal Family at Queen Elizabeth's funeral on September 19 2022.

She was caught on camera "scolding" Princess Charlotte and issuing a terse two-word comment to Princess Kate, which a lipreader has since analysed.

Lip-reading professional Jeremy Freeman claims he saw Prince George pinch his sister, which she responded to by crying out "ow!"

Camilla then looked displeased and said to Kate: "Take her."

Inside Princess Diana's 'revenge' trick she played on King Charles and Queen Camilla

Princess Diana's little black dress by Christina Stambolian became notorious when she wore it to the Serpentine Gallery in London on July 3 1994.

The stylish number became known as the 'revenge dress' as she wore it days after King Charles admitting to being unfaithful to her with Queen Camilla, when they were still the Prince of Wales and Camilla Parker-Bowles.

Diana's former stylist Anna Harvey said of the famous dress: "She wanted to look a million dollars… and she did."

The look was designed by Christina Stambolian for the late Princess of Wales and took two dressmakers 60 hours to construct.

Princess Beatrice and Eugenie have 'strategic' position within Firm for key reason

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie both have "strategic" positions when attending engagements so they can look like they are "integral parts" of the royal narrative without overshadowing other senior members of the Firm, a PR expert has claimed.

The Princesses of York have been attending several royal engagements recently alongside other members of the Royal Family, even though they are not working royals.

Now branding expert Desislava Dobreva has spoken about the York siblings' strategic placement and role within the Firm.

David Beckham's 'snub' to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry after bitter 'feud' with Victoria

David Beckham made an appearance in the Royal Box on day one of Wimbledon amid an ongoing rift between Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The former England captain sat in the prestigious booth to watch Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz take on Estonia’s Mark Lajal, as the tennis tournament kicked off on Monday (July 1).

The football legend, 49, attended the tennis match with his mum Sandra and the pair were joined by many star-studded faces, including Jamie Cullen, Alexander Armstrong, and Katherine Jenkins.

David also greeted Sir David Attenborough who was sitting in the Royal Box - and they nodded "hello", before taking their seats. While the Royal Box was filled with famous faces and A-list stars consisting of athletes, actors and presenters, no members of the Royal Family were in attendance.

Royal fans issue the same complaint over Duchess Sophie's 'appropriate' choice

Duchess Sophie oozed elegance as she stepped out in Edinburgh on Wednesday to attend the Order of the Thistle Service at St Giles’ Cathedral, where her husband, Prince Edward, was formally installed as a Royal Knight of the Thistle.

The Duchess of Edinburgh looked chic in a baby pink crepe dress by Suzannah London (£2,390) which she paired with a pair of nude heels by Prada.

To complete her look, Sophie donned a Jane Taylor white wide-brimmed hat, which she previously wore at Royal Ascot in 2019 and a clutch in a blush hue.

For accessories, the royal chose a pair of platinum diamond hoop earrings by G Collins & Sons (£24,500), a pendant necklace and two dainty bracelets.

While royal fans liked Sophie's overall look, there were several who pinpointed a key detail missing.

Queen Elizabeth's 15 Prime Ministers and the one she couldn't stand

In a remarkable seven decades on the British throne, the late Queen Elizabeth II saw 15 British Prime Ministers come and go during her reign, from Sir Winston Churchill to Margaret Thatcher and Boris Johnson to the short-lived Liz Truss.

Although displaying an air of political impartiality, the late Queen did indeed have her favourites among those who took up residence in 10 Downing Street after her accession in 1952.

The late Queen built a rapport with Harold Wilson, as shown in great detail in several episodes of Netflix’s The Crown, Margaret Thatcher was said to have alarmed Her Majesty, and she found Harold Macmillan too ‘noble’.

However, according to those closest to her, the late Queen’s favourite was, without doubt, Sir Winston Churchill.

Royal expert's three-word verdict on Princess Charlotte that explains her future role

Princess Charlotte "rules the nest" over her brothers, Prince George and Prince Louis and is set to play a detrimental part in the future, a royal expert has claimed.

The Prince and Princess of Wales's middle child has been dominating headlines in recent weeks for her appearance at Trooping the Colour and at Taylor Swift's concert in London.

Now former royal correspondent Charles Rae labelled the young princess a "superstar" and told the Sun: "I think it was really great to see him [Prince William] with George and Charlotte [at Taylor Swift's concert].

"It just goes to show that Charlotte with the three of them together, she is the one who rules that nest make no mistake about it."

Meghan Markle set to be dragged back to court as half-sister Samantha draws battle lines

Meghan Markle could be forced to once again face her half-sister Samantha in court, as the 59-year-old's lawyers are preparing an attempt to overturn the verdict which saw Meghan emerge victorious.

In Meghan and Prince Harry's interview with Oprah Winfrey the Duchess claimed she was principally raised as an only child, adding that Samantha only changed her surname back to Markle "when I started dating Harry".

Lawyers for Samantha Markle argued in a civil lawsuit that these comments were "disparaging, hurtful, and false" and implied that Meghan's sister was "a stranger, a liar, and... [a] deceptive fame-seeking imposter with avaricious intentions".

Real reason Prince Andrew refuses to leave Royal Lodge exposed - and it's not Fergie

Prince Andrew's persistence to stay in the Royal Lodge has a particularly "symbolic" meaning, according to a royal commentator.

The Duke of York has been refusing to leave the 30-bedroom property in Windsor, thought to be worth £30million.

But the royal has been struggling with the upkeep of the mansion, where he lives with his former wife, Sarah Ferguson, as he is required to "repair, renew, uphold, clean and keep in repair and, where necessary, rebuild" the mansion, according to the 75-year lease agreement granted to him in 2003 by the Crown Estate.

Talk TV host Kevin O’Sullivan said: "[Andrew]has lost everything. And he doesn't like it. Andrew thinks he should be allowed a way back [into the Fold], so him hanging on to the key of the Royal Lodge has become symbolic for him."

Prince Harry ESPY protested by 50,000 as public 'alienated' by 'lingering' remarks

EXCLUSIVE: Prince Harry’s latest award is a reminder of the public’s ill will toward him, says one royal expert.

Harry is scheduled to receive the Pat Tillman Award for Service, which has been very upsetting for the late veteran’s mother, Mary Tillman, and members of the public.

Mrs Tillman expressed her disbelief with the decision, saying there are individuals who are "far more fitting," which prompted a petition asking ESPN to revisit the decision.

The major loophole that stops royals from voting in a General Election even if they wanted

When it was announced by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak that the UK would go to the polls for the next General Election, Buckingham Palace put out a statement explaining what this would mean for King Charles and the rest of the Royal Family.

It read: "Following the Prime Minister's statement this afternoon calling a general election, the Royal Family will - in accordance with normal procedure - postpone engagements that may appear to divert attention or distract from the election campaign.

While many of their engagements have been able to go ahead as planned, the royals must not be seen to be involving themselves with politics in any way.

The King as a general rule does not vote, even though there is no official law prohibiting him from doing so.

Royal insiders explain Prince Harry's 'deeply personal' note to 'very hurt' father Charles

Prince Harry penned a "deeply personal" letter to his father before returning to the UK for Prince Philip's funeral, as relations "hit rock bottom" after quitting his duties, a royal expert has said.

Amidst preparations to reunite with the family he left behind in 2020, the Duke of Sussex was reportedly compelled to resort to writing the letter to his father due to a "complete communication breakdown".

The then Prince of Wales was left "very hurt" by his son's explosive remarks during the now infamous Oprah Winfrey interview, particularly while the Duke of Edinburgh lay gravely ill. Insiders close to the Sussexes, who now reside in California with their children Archie and Lilibet, indicated that letters have become Harry's only option to bridge the gap with his estranged father.

Prince Harry struggling with loneliness in US but Meghan in 'natural environment'

Prince Harry is reportedly finding his new life in the United States "finds the day long and lonely" as he lacks practical skills and navigates a "strange unfamiliar world which grows increasingly unfriendly" world, which is a natural environment for his wife Meghan Markle.

This insight comes from a Royal expert who suggests that the Duke of Sussex may be experiencing "major regret" as his American dream faces potential disruption.

The couple moved to the US in 2020 after announcing their intention to step down from their senior Royal duties and seek financial independence from the monarchy.

Prince Harry 'deeply regrets' decision which 'threatens whole life plan' now Trump looms

Prince Harry may be harbouring "deep regrets" over a decision that could potentially disrupt his entire life plan, according to Royal expert and author Tom Quinn.

The Duke of Sussex, who relocated to the US with wife Meghan Markle in 2020 after stepping back from their senior Royal duties, is said to be already "finding the days long and lonely".

His American dream now faces potential disruption due to the prospect of Donald Trump returning as US President and a lawsuit initiated by The Heritage Foundation, a think tank group.
