Royal Family LIVE: Prince Harry's blunt reply when asked about return to royal duties
When promoting his bombshell memoir, Spare, Prince Harry was asked about a possible return to royal duties.
Prince Harry once gave a rather blunt reply when asked about a possible return to royal duties as speculation rises such a move could be in the pipeline,
Last year, the Duke of Sussex was interviewed in a revealing conversation with Good Morning America whilepromoting his bombshell memoir, Spare, in January 2023.
Upon being questioned if there was a possibility of him and Meghan re-joining the fold as working royals, his response was clear-cut: "No. I don't think it is ever going to be possible."
He further added:"Even if there is an agreement, or an arrangement between me and my family, there is that third party that is going to do everything they can to make sure that isn't possible. Not stopping us going back, but making it unsurvivable."
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle quit working as senior royals in 2020 and eventually relocated from the UK to Montecito, California.
Despite speculation of the couple returning after King Charles temporarily stepped back from his royal duties due to his cancer diagnosis, sources disclosed a hybrid royal role was inappropriate, as stated in OK! Magazine.
