Prince Harry Branded “Dangerous” as Royal Return Raises Fresh Questions Over His Unresolved Grievances
Prince Harry’s return to Britain has put an old royal conflict back under the spotlight — and one royal commentator has issued a stark warning about what could happen if the Duke of Sussex still feels as aggrieved as he reportedly did several years ago.
Harry and Meghan Markle are now back in the UK, living at a private, non-royal residence outside London. Their return comes five years after their explosive 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which the couple made a series of allegations about life inside the Royal Family.
The interview became one of the most significant moments in the Sussexes’ break from royal life. Meghan spoke about feeling poorly treated during her time as a senior working royal and made a serious allegation concerning comments about the potential skin colour of her then-unborn son.
Harry, meanwhile, has continued speaking publicly about his experiences. In the years since the Oprah interview, he has revealed further details about his life within the monarchy, including in his memoir Spare.
Now, according to reports, Harry remains keen for an apology from the Royal Family — a position that has prompted a particularly strong assessment from royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams.
Speaking to the Daily Express, Fitzwilliams said Harry would be “dangerous” to the Royal Family if he remains as aggrieved as has been reported.
His warning was based partly on the enormous global attention generated by the Oprah interview and the commercial success of Spare. With Harry and Meghan now physically back in Britain, the commentator suggested their presence could make the unresolved tensions feel more immediate.
Harry has previously spoken of wanting reconciliation with his family. But Fitzwilliams pointed to a fundamental obstacle: Harry’s apparent belief that reconciliation requires accountability.
As he put it, the Royal Family is unlikely to issue a public apology.
That leaves the Sussexes’ return taking place against a complicated backdrop. Harry may have expressed a desire for peace, but reports that he still wants an apology suggest that some of the grievances that defined the couple’s most turbulent years as working royals may not have disappeared.
The contrast is striking. In 2021, Harry and Meghan’s Oprah interview exposed a deeply fractured relationship with the institution they had stepped away from. Five years later, they are once again living in Britain — but the questions surrounding what has been said, what remains unresolved and whether genuine reconciliation is possible have followed them home.
And perhaps most tellingly, Fitzwilliams invoked one of the most enduring responses to the Sussexes’ claims: Queen Elizabeth II’s carefully worded statement that “recollections may vary.”
That line has continued to define the divide between the two sides — and Harry and Meghan’s return to Britain may ensure that the old disagreement is far from forgotten.
