London Calling: Prince Harry Struggles to Shake His 'Royal Ghosts' to Move on With Life in California

Prince Harry's life in California is apparently "not what he truly wants" as the Duke of Sussex is reportedly trying to avoid the urge to "move back to Britain."

"He's got various court cases still ongoing here," royal expert Roya Nikkhah told an outlet. "I think we may see him back at the beginning of next year, which sort of pulls him back into an old bit of his life that was very difficult for him."

"He's got various court cases still ongoing here," she added. "I think we may see him back at the beginning of next year, which sort of pulls him back into an old bit of his life that was very difficult for him. I think for him going forward, it’s [finding] a meaningful world for himself living out in the States on the global stage."

Nikkhah continued, "Being a humanitarian is what he says he wants to be. I think that’s what he will probably look to focus on for the next few years — how he builds that profile as a humanitarian."

Many royal analysts believe the Duke will leave Meghan Markle 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 that the rebel Duke is currently overflowing with "anger" and an intense fear of losing his Duchess, but this "dysfunction" cannot continue much longer.

"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."

The author of Horses and Husbands then further elaborated on Harry's complex, emotional predicament by observing: "Usually, you're happy when you're doing your duty and you're doing it for other people and you're putting things into life. If you're taking things out of life, at the risk of getting a lot of hate mail, I personally think that he looks like he's petrified of losing her [Meghan] and looks slightly petrified of her."

After the presenter shared that Harry's departure from the monarchy was his choice, the author poignantly said of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex: "I was in Windsor the day they got married, and the popularity and the goodwill towards them was enormous."
