He says Prince Harry has said too much to get forgiveness

Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, royal expert Robert Jobson said Prince Harry will have to make people forget that he sold out his family if he wants a comeback.
It comes after The Sun's Royal show asked viewers if they wanted to see the two reconcile, and a staggering 73% said no.
Robert said: "I think it's too late. Too much has gone under the bridge, in my opinion. Too much water."
Sky News royal editor Rhiannon Mills agreed, saying Harry had thrown his family 'under the bus.'
She added: "The biggest issue for Harry and Meghan, is that an awful lot has been said.
"The whole family kind of went under the bus, really, in the documentaries and in Spare. And there are lots of things that they cannot erase in terms of what's been said."
Robert also revealed that the Duke of Sussex's recent trip to Angola, where Princess Diana went, also did nothing to sway the public on letting him back into the royal family.
Prince Harry recently followed in his mum's footsteps walking through minefields in Angola and speaking to the charity Halo, who help clear them, something he also did in 2019.
The royal expert said: "But the reality was that was a big deal then.
"It wasn't a big deal this time around. So he's not got the same draw that he had. He must know that. When you've trashed your family and monetised it."

Monetising over the family feud will be hard to come back from

Robert went on to say that Diana's authorised biography, Her True Story, was different as she didn't monetise from it, while Harry did with his book Spare.
"She didn't monetise it for herself. He made a fortune out of it," he explained.
"He's asking for forgiveness. Well, you know, I think that his father probably will in the long term. I think he probably will. I just don't see William and Camilla doing it."
Earlier this month, Meredith Maines, Meghan and Harry's chief of staff in California, and Liam Maguire, the head of their UK PR operation, recently met Charles's communication secretary Tobyn Andreae at the Royal Over-Seas League which sits just three minutes from Clarence House.
The secret peace summit sparked rumours a reconciliation is in the works, but Prince William's team was notably absent.
The Duke revealed in his bombshell BBC interview "life is precious" and "I would like to get my father and brother back".
It comes after Harry opened up a number of wounds when he spoke to US talk show host Oprah Winfrey alongside his new wife about how Meghan was allegedly treated during her time as part of the family.
Meghan claimed she was left suicidal due to how she was treated as Harry said that questions were raised about the colour of their child's skin colour by other royals.
The Prince would also publish his bombshell book Spare in 2023 after moving to California which stirred up further controversies.
He reportedly hasn't seen Charles in years with his last direct communication with brother William coming in 2022.
The feuding brothers reportedly didn't even speak to each other despite standing 'virtually back to back' among mourners at their uncle's memorial service last year.
Inside Prince William and Prince Harry's 'feud'
TENSIONS have been running high in the royal family since Prince Harry stepped down from royal duties in 2020 and relocated to California with Meghan Markle.
Their last reported interaction was during the funeral of their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, in September 2022, but conversations were said to be brief.
The feuding brothers reportedly did not speak to each other despite standing 'virtually back to back' among mourners at their uncle's memorial service last year.
Growing up, Wills and Harry shared many of the same friends who were part of their close, tight-knit circle.
But their relationship took a sour turn after Harry lobbed vile allegations against the Prince of Wales in his memoir Spare - and they are said to have not been in direct contact since the 2023 release.
In the book, he claimed William had physically attacked him and knocked him to the floor in 2019 and made insulting comments about Meghan.
The Sussexes had also targeted Princess Kate, when Meghan claimed the royal made her cry.
The bitter feud was ignited when the Sussexes told Oprah, in their 2021 sit down interview, that certain members of the Royal Family had speculated about Prince Archie's skin colour.
It was later claimed the royals were Princess Kate and King Charles, after Harry and Meghan's former pal Omid Scobie published his hatchet-job book Endgame.
During the infamous Oprah interview, the duchess also made stinging comments about the Firm and how they handled her mental health struggles.
Prince William and Harry's bond then worsened after the Sussexes made a number of accusations against the Royal Family in their 2022 Netflix docuseries.
The duke has given subsequent interviews, such as his most BBC chat in May 2025, that have only propelled bad blood.

Rihanna 'set to tour again after cancelling London dates' as she prepares to welcome third child
Rihanna is reportedly set to tour again after cancelling a string of dates in London which were meant to take place this summer. The singer, 37, who is currently preparing to welcome her third child with her partner ASAP Rocky, has now rearranged the shows. According to reports, she had been rumoured to be planning a six-concert residency in London in July to mark her return to music. It was later reported that Rihanna pulled out of the proposed gigs at West Ham's stadium in a secret meeting last week in March, just before they were set to be publicly confirmed. The tour is now set to be back on for 2026, The Sun reports, which will mark her first UK shows since 2016. A source told the newspaper: 'But Rihanna and her team are now confident they can make it work for next year.' They added: 'The dates will also coincide with the tenth anniversary of [her last album] Anti, and fans can expect to hear her new music too. 'Rihanna might be pregnant with her third baby but she is the ultimate working mum and has the support of her partner ASAP Rocky.' Daily Mail has contacted Rihanna's representatives for comment. Music insiders previously claimed to The Telegraph that Rihanna was lining up shows at London Stadium for July 4 and 5, with other possible concerts set for July 8, 9, 11 and 12. A second source told the publication that her promoters were 'holding' the arena - formerly the Olympic Stadium - for her, with preparations in the advance planning stages. The run of concerts would've been Rihanna's first in almost a decade, after the release of her last album Anti in 2016. The Umbrella hitmaker finally confirmed her ninth album was on its way in an interview with Harper's Bazaar in February. She sent fans wild as she teased she's 'cracked the code' on her 'next body of work' and that it 'feels right.' Rihanna told the outlet: 'This time away from from music needs to count for the next thing everyone hears. It has to matter. I have to show them it was worth the wait.' The nine-time Grammy winner revealed her pregnancy news when she showed off her baby bump at the Met Gala back in May. Just last week, she dished on motherhood as she is expecting her third baby. She told Access Hollywood that her 'two princes' RZA and Riot have a ton of energy that wear her out when she attended the Smurfs premiere in Los Angeles. She is the voice actor for Smurfette in the new animated musical-comedy film and brought along her kids for the red carpet event ahead of the movie's release. It comes just days after the singer attended her father's funeral in her native country of Barbados - after he passed away at the age of 70 on May 30 following a battle with pancreatic cancer and accompanying complications. During an interview with Extra at the Smurfs premiere, she opened up about her little ones joining her at the screening. 'I'm excited for tonight. Tonight is going to be fun. We get to watch the movie together for the first time. I get to watch it in its full completion. So, that should be interesting,' she expressed.

Spooky Jenna Ortega ruffles feathers in frilly dress at Paris premiere of Wednesday season 2
Wednesday has been viewed 252 million times and counting WOOHOO LA-LA, JEN Spooky Jenna Ortega ruffles feathers in frilly dress at Paris premiere of Wednesday season 2 Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) OO-La-la! Spooky Jenna Ortega ruffles more than some feathers in a frilly dress in Paris. The US star wore the brown frock for the French premiere of the second series of Netflix hit Wednesday, directed by Tim Burton. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 3 Jenna Ortega at the Paris premiere of the second series of Netflix hit Wednesday Credit: Getty 3 With Tim Burton, who directs the Netflix smash Credit: Shutterstock Editorial The show, based on the daughter from The Addams Family, will return next week after the original run became a ratings hit following its release in 2022. On the reception to the first series, Jenna, 22, said: 'I'm still very appreciative and grateful. "We didn't know that anyone was going to watch the show. 'You do these things and you don't know what's to come, so it was very overwhelming.' A former child star, Jenna was catapulted into the A list when Wednesday – viewed 252 million times and counting – launched in 2022. And by her own refreshingly candid admission, that rapid rise to the top was overwhelming. 'To be quite frank, after the show and trying to figure everything out, I was an unhappy person,' she told Harper's Bazaar in May. 'After the pressure, the attention – as somebody who's quite introverted, that was so intense and so scary.' The eight-month shoot in Romania had been challenging, with Jenna revealing: 'I was alone. Never had any hot water. The boilers in two of my apartments were broken, so I always took cold showers.' At least she'll be getting a warm welcome from Wednesday fans as the show returns to their screens.

The pair have been joined by Kate's 22-year-old model daughter Lila. It came after Kate posed in just stockings and a bra for a steamy Saint Laurent ad. Kate has been modelling since she was 14, and she is proving she's still at the top of her game. Recently Kate's wellness brand Cosmoss went bust with debts topping £2.9million. Later in July she was seen partying among revellers at BST Hyde Park Festival. Meanwhile Kate's daughter Lila has been promoting the new Diabetes Type 1 Barbie doll. Like Lila, her doll has a glucose monitor arm patch, an insulin pump on her leg and a bag for emergency snacks. Lila, 22, said: 'Receiving messages from people who see my patches and feel represented by me means everything to me. 'To see a Barbie that looks like me — even wearing the patches, is surreal and special.'
