Meghan Markle has criticized the British royal family, but is also said to want a resolution to her and Prince Harry's feud with the monarchy "for commercial reasons."

"Harry is under pressure to keep some sort of relationship with his family going, if only for the sake of the couple’s new ventures," royal author Tom Quinn shared. "Harry still has vague hopes that he will be forgiven and will be offered a minor role somewhere."

The Duke of Sussex has been compared to the Duke of Windsor.

He then added, "Even Edward VIII, after the abdication, was given a few minor roles. And Harry will be aware of that."

"It seems quite clear that they are desperate to start healing the rift," a source recently revealed about the rebel royals' "long-term" outlook.

"The problem for the King and other members of the family is the worry that if they have a chat with Harry, it will appear in Spare volume two," they added. "How do you regain the trust? I don’t think Harry ever can. But from the conversations I’ve had with the King, I would never say their relationship is irreparable. The King’s capacity to forgive his son is undimmed. There are other members of the royal family who are much more weighted against Harry, that’s the problem."

This explosive insight comes after the pair tied up a "successful" four-day trip to Colombia, which followed a similar visit to Nigeria back in May, in which Harry stated at that time, "It is hugely important for us to meet directly with people… to bring about solutions, support and positive change."

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex left the royal family in early 2020.

This led the palace insider to further add how, "Charles and William may be open to reconciliation, if for no other reason than to have two more people for official duties, especially in places no one else wants to go. But Harry and Meghan are definitely going to have to apologize. This rift won’t heal overnight. And at this point, they need the royals more than the royals need them."

This follows reports from July that suggested Harry will leave his Duchess one day for a permanent return home to the United Kingdom. Veteran royal author and historian Hugo Vickers told royal editor Matt Wilkinson on "The Sun's Royal Exclusive" podcast early that month that the rebel Duke is currently overflowing with "anger" and an intense fear of losing his Duchess, but this "dysfunction" cannot continue much longer.

Palace courtiers reportedly refer to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex 'indirectly.'

Where do you think they will be in 20 years time?" Wilkinson asked.

"I think he'll come home," the scribe replied. "I think he'll come home, and if he comes home, we must be very nice to him because he won't particularly want to. He's quite angry I think."

The presenter then wondered if King Charles III, if still reigning, would welcome his youngest child back, to which Vickers shared: "Yes, I do. The King has left the door wide open for him to do that and he was doing such a good job before and... he looked so happy."
