Close sources within the royal circle have revealed that the Duke of Sussex often appears displeased, despite his idyllic life in sunny California, his two beloved children, and his liberation from the confines of the British monarchy.
The question on everyone’s mind is: why does he continue to seek validation from his family, with little success in return?
According to royal expert Tom Quinn, the Duke perceives every triumph as a setback, as his family remains indifferent to his efforts and refuses to make amends for past grievances.
In a recent interview with the Mirror, Quinn highlighted the Duke’s deep-rooted discontent, evident by his demeanor during the couple’s visit to Nigeria.
Even with the Duchess by his side offering unwavering support, a sense of lingering bitterness clouds his countenance.
While many viewed the Sussexes’ Nigerian tour as a triumph, insiders suggest that the royal family regarded it as a mere facade of royal duties.
There are whispers within the palace walls that some senior royals fear the Sussexes might overshadow the monarchy, widening the chasm between them and other members, notably the Wales.
Renowned commentator Lynne Carat warned that mishandling these pseudo-royal engagements could further isolate the couple from the royal fold.
Reports indicate that the palace was incensed by the Nigerian excursion, perceiving it as a display of regal protocol.
Carat expressed skepticism about the tour’s impact on the Sussexes’ popularity in the UK and USA but acknowledged its potential to endear the couple to African nations, showcasing their philanthropic endeavors.
During their time in Africa, the Duke hinted at future visits, with Ghana being a likely destination on the horizon.
Anticipation is already palpable in Ghana, as locals eagerly await the Sussexes’ arrival to immerse themselves in the country’s rich heritage and hospitality.
Despite occasional glimpses of melancholy observed in the Duke, the couple’s African expedition was met with enthusiasm as they explored various towns and cultural festivities, evoking emotional responses even from the Duke himself.
The journey marked the beginning of a series of planned trips for the Sussexes, aiming to engage with diverse communities and causes worldwide.
As speculations swirl about their next ventures, particularly in Ghana, the couple’s commitment to fostering global connections and cultural exchanges remains unwavering.
Amidst the whirlwind of public scrutiny and familial tensions, the Sussexes persist in their mission to bridge divides and champion humanitarian efforts across continents.
