Prince Harry is reportedly feeling “lonely” in the US and is “aching for the world he left behind,” according to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield. 

The Duke of Sussex, who resides in Montecito, California, with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, has been navigating life away from the royal spotlight since stepping back from his duties in 2020.

Recently celebrating his milestone 40th birthday privately with close family and friends, Harry’s transition to life in America seems to have its challenges. 

Schofield suggests that the prince may be missing the family and friends he left behind in the UK. 

During a recent appearance on GB News, royal commentator Schofield discussed Harry’s feelings of loneliness in California. 

“100 percent,” she affirmed, emphasizing that his upbringing at an all-boys school fostered deep, fun friendships that are hard to replicate.

Reflecting on his past, Schofield noted, “He experienced something that most people don’t—going away to school and waking up with friends every day, followed by Christmases in a castle filled with cousins.” 

She contrasted this with Harry’s current birthday celebration, where he would be surrounded by just four people: his wife, Meghan, their children, and her mother.

Concluding her analysis with a poignant eight-word statement, Schofield remarked, “I do believe he aches for the world he left behind.”

In a contrasting view, body language expert Darren Stanton shared his insights on Prince Harry’s demeanor, suggesting that the Duke is, in fact, enjoying his life in the US. 

Analyzing Harry’s appearance at a charity tennis tournament just before his birthday, Stanton noted, “Harry showed real expressions of happiness and joy,” emphasizing that there were no signs of fake smiles.

Selena Gomez has recently lashed out at trolls who have derided her for sharing her personal struggles publicly.

Speaking at the Women in Film dinner alongside her little sister, Gracie, the Only Murders in the Building actress said, “I truly truly believe that there is power in being vulnerable and telling people when you need help and want help.”

“That is not shameful,” remarked the 32-year-old.

Selena stated, “I shared that I can’t carry a child. Yeah, I shared I have bipolar.”

“That’s what my life is. That’s who I am. I only want to be an advocate. That’s why I share, that’s why I like to be honest, because everyone is going through something,” explained the singer as well as actress.

Selena, who released her documentary about mental health called Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me in 2022, added, “I don’t have it all put together, I’m me and that’s all I can be.”

Addressing her 11-year-old sister Gracie, the songstress mentioned, “Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you are not a good person or that you aren’t kind because that is so cruel.”

“Screw anyone who tells you you’re a victim. You’re a survivor in my book,” she said.

Earlier in a Vanity Fair interview, Selena opened up about her health problems and why she cannot get pregnant.

“I haven’t ever said this, but I unfortunately can’t carry my own children,” she admitted.

The singer-songwriter explained, “I have a lot of medical issues that would put my life and the baby’s in jeopardy. That was something I had to grieve for a while.”

“It’s not necessarily the way I envisioned it,” stated Selena.

Selena noted, “I thought it would happen the way it happens for everyone. [But] I’m in a much better place with that.”

“I find it a blessing that there are wonderful people willing to do surrogacy or adoption, which are both huge possibilities for me,” she added.

The former Queen of Denmark has cancelled all upcoming engagements after injuring her neck and fracturing her hand. 

Queen Margrethe II, who stepped down from the Danish throne in January, recently provided an important health update. Lene Balleby, Head of Communications for the Royal House of Denmark, issued a statement confirming the news.

She said: “Her Majesty Queen Margrethe has today been discharged from the Royal Hospital and is now back in her home at Fredensborg Castle.

“Queen Margrethe was hospitalised on Wednesday evening after a fall, which unfortunately caused damage around the neck vertebrae as well as a fracture of the left hand.

“As a result of that unfortunate fall, the left hand is now in plaster, and the Queen will have to wear it for the coming months and a stiff neck collar.

“Queen Margrethe is in good spirits and under the circumstances well, but will, however, be on sick leave for a longer period.

“It also means that the Queen’s attendance at a number of events has been cancelled in the coming time.”

A post on social media read: “Her Majesty Queen Margrethe was discharged from Rigshospitalet today and is now back at her home Fredensborg Palace.”

The Royal Family’s loyal fans were quick to send well wishes, with the comment section of the post flooded with concern and love.

It has been a difficult few years for the 84-year-old, health-wise.

February 2023 saw the royal undergo “extensive back surgery,” which led to her decision to abdicate the throne.

In her New Year’s address at the end of 2023, the royal said of her surgery and decision to step down: “[The surgery] went well, thanks to the skilled healthcare staff who took care of me.

“Of course, the operation also gave rise to thoughts about the future – whether the time had come to leave the responsibility to the next generation.”

While Queen Margarethe is set to take it easy for the next few weeks, she is still a constant present in the public eye, attending meetings and public engagements.

Prince Andrew has been described as a “problem that refuses to go away” for King Charles, according to a royal commentator. 

The Duke of York’s notorious Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis has now become the focus of a major TV drama.

Amazon Prime’s new three-part series, A Very Royal Scandal, chronicles the events leading up to and following Prince Andrew’s interview, which saw him questioned about his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. 

The series, following Netflix’s Scoop released in April, offers a fresh look at the controversial interview and its aftermath.

A royal commentator has looked at how Prince Andrew is the “problem that refuses to go away” and will prompt further “embarrassment” for King Charles and the rest of the Royal Family.

As the show is released, royal author Jennie Bond suggested how the Firm will feel about the interview being back in the headlines.

“Andrew really is the problem that refuses to go away,” Bond claimed.

“I’m sure the King, and indeed Andrew, wish the interview had never taken place, even though Andrew was so pleased with it immediately after the filming.”

Looking at how this show is different from Netflix’s Scoop, Bond claimed the reason behind this is Emily Maitlis’s involvement.

“As Emily was so involved with this show – as opposed to the last one – it’s getting much more publicity than I imagined it would.

“It promises to fill in quite a few blanks around the making of the interview and Andrew’s demeanour before, during and afterwards.”

She continued to tell OK!: “I don’t imagine the King will watch it, but he will be made aware of its contents and any repercussions I’m sure.

“It’s bound to be a further embarrassment for all concerned.”

Speaking to LBC about the show, Maitlis said: “I feel uncomfortable at moments, and I feel concerned, and I think I’m also conscious… that it’s not just the ramifications [for] Andrew, it’s everyone around him.

“It’s the loyalties to others and the women in his immediate periphery, as well as, of course, to the Epstein victims that [are] the heart of this story.”
