On April 22, 2023, His Royal Highness, the Duke of Edinburgh, made a special visit to the British Embassy in Washington, D.C. to commemorate Earth Day.
As part of the occasion, he planted a Japanese cherry tree just outside the embassy gates, joining a collection of trees that have been planted by three generations of the royal family.
This act of environmental stewardship was met with great appreciation from all those present at the event.
During his visit, His Royal Highness displayed his characteristic grace and charm, engaging with everyone in attendance.
However, there was more to this visit than just Earth Day celebrations.
According to a reliable source, Prince Edward’s purpose for visiting the embassy extended beyond marking the occasion.
It was also an opportunity to address Prince Harry’s diplomatic immunity status.
Following King Charles’s directive to streamline the monarchy, it has been revealed that Prince Harry will no longer enjoy diplomatic immunity.
The British Embassy in the U.S. is working closely with the U.S. State Department to facilitate this change.
However, there remains uncertainty about how this will impact Harry’s situation if his wife, Meghan Markle, were to initiate divorce proceedings.
While the specifics of Harry’s residency in the U.S. without permanent citizenship are unknown, it is likely that his royal status played a role.
Speculations suggest that he may have obtained an A-1 visa, typically reserved for diplomats and government officials.
With this visa, his diplomatic passport would provide a level of protection in case of divorce proceedings initiated by Meghan.
However, since Harry is no longer considered a working royal, his A-1 immunity can be revoked, leaving him vulnerable to legal actions.
The potential removal of Harry’s diplomatic immunity becomes significant because Meghan can only file for divorce in London, where his immunity does not apply.
If this development proves true, it would be a strategic move by King Charles to remove the final protection Harry enjoyed as a member of the royal family.
Interestingly, this is what Harry himself desired, aligning with his expressed wishes.
The Ambassador of the British Embassy holds a crucial role in directing and overseeing its operations, including consulates.
Their responsibilities encompass presenting U.K. policies to the American government and people, conveying American policies and perspectives to the U.K. government, promoting U.K. interests, managing press and cultural relations, and providing consular services.
In other news, there are growing speculations about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle potentially apologizing to the royal family for publicly humiliating them.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have faced recent setbacks in the United States, where they have been met with rejection from various quarters.
Their attempts to maintain their public image and influence seem to have backfired, leading to a decline in popularity.
The couple’s struggles to gain acceptance in Hollywood and establish political connections have been ongoing.
Despite their efforts to engage with celebrities and politicians, they have faced disappointments.
Notably, their lucrative Spotify deal fell through, and they failed to secure any Emmy awards despite their high-profile endeavors.
Reports suggest that Meghan and Harry appear upset and devastated by these setbacks.
Amidst their challenges, the couple reached out to the White House, requesting a ride back to the U.S. on Air Force One after attending Queen Elizabeth’s funeral.
However, their request was denied.
Additionally, earlier attempts to involve First Lady Jill Biden in Harry’s Invictus Games were abandoned due to concerns about potential offense to the royal family.
These unsuccessful initiatives appear to be part of the couple’s wider campaign to achieve their goals in California.
Furthermore, Harry and Meghan’s critical remarks about members of the royal family during their interview with Oprah Winfrey, as well as Prince Harry’s upcoming memoir, have failed to impress some American A-listers.
Notable celebrities such as Taylor Swift and Katy Perry have also snubbed the couple.
Now, it is reported that Harry is considering reaching out to his elder brother, Prince William, in an effort to reconcile and address the backlash they have faced.
This phone call signifies a potential truce between the brothers.
