“Prince Harry Rumor Dispelled: ‘Not True’

Prince Harry has debunked a long-standing rumor, clarifying the motivations behind his departure from royal duties.

Many believe Meghan Markle was the sole reason behind Prince Harry’s decision to step back from royal duties and move to California.

Critics often portrayed her as the instigator of their move, fueling media speculation and public debates.

However, Harry himself has clarified this narrative in various interviews, including his appearance on the Armchair Expert podcast, and other discussions over recent years.

In these conversations, Harry revealed that his decision to leave the royal fold was rooted in personal considerations that predated his relationship with Meghan.

He explained that he had been contemplating an exit from royal life since his 20s, driven by a desire to escape the pressures that had significantly affected his mother, Princess Diana.

Prince Harry described witnessing the toll that royal life took on her and noted his fear of a similar fate impacting his future family.

This acknowledgment contradicted the long-standing claim that Meghan was solely responsible for influencing him to step away from his royal responsibilities.

One royal source noted that while Meghan may have supported Harry in making the final decision, she was not the sole cause; rather, she was the “match that lit the already ticking time bomb.

Harry’s reflections, interviews, and testimonies from those close to him reveal that he sought a different path long before Meghan entered his life.

Debunking this rumor shifts the narrative from viewing Meghan as the influencer to highlighting Harry’s autonomy in the decision.

It underscores his wish to protect his family and seek a life less scrutinized by the public eye.

His move to California with Meghan has allowed them to redefine their roles and distance themselves from royal duties.
