There's nothing left of the man that was Harry, he's erratic and just watching Meghan crack on, expert says
PRINCE Harry is nothing but a shell of his former self as he watches his wife Meghan Markle succeed in her life, an has claimed. The Duke of Sussex also appears to be "erratic" in his behaviour, given his latest "random" visit to China, which clashed with King Charles and Queen Camilla's visit to Canada, the expert added. 3 All of this comes while his wife Meghan has engaged in a major re-brand this year, launching her new podcast and finding success with her business As Ever. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive Show, broadcaster and writer Esther Krakue said Harry's visit to China for his sustainable travel charity Travalyst was done as he "has nothing left". She said: "If you think about it critically, what else does he [Harry] have left? "I mean, he's resigned from Sentebale, while it's being investigated. "He's no longer a working royal, [and while] he has his other charity work with the Invictus Games, his involvement is not as in-depth because it's every few years. "This [Travalyst] is really all he has left." Esther added that Meghan's continued success meant Harry was living in her shadow, leaving him with nothing left of his former self. She continued: "It kind of feels like [this] because there's nothing left. "He's just watching Meghan go from experiment to experiment, you know, taking his kids to school and dropping them off - but really, there isn't much there in terms of the man. "What is the man about?" Harry's an angry hot-head who blew up his life in 10 minutes & there's only one way he'll rein in his temper The Duke of Sussex spoke in Shanghai about the importance of sustainable travel on the same day that the King and Queen landed in Ottawa for a whistlestop Canadian visit. The royals visited The Great White North in order to open a session of parliament, which included an impassioned speech from Charles on the importance of Canada's independence. However, one royal expert said Harry would have been mistaken if he thought his recent "diary clash" stunt visit to China would overshadow the King's trip to Canada. She added that his appearance in China felt "random" and "surprising", adding to what "appears to be an erratic year" for Harry. Speaking on the Duke of Sussex's visit, Royal Correspondent Bronte Coy explained: "It is a little bit random, to be honest. "And again, because it popped up that exact same day as the royals arrived in Canada, it had a bit of an odd feel to it - more so than usual. "It's kind of the latest in what appears to be a bit of an erratic year for him - it was surprising." If Harry thought his China stunt would overshadow the King's Canada trip he was sorely mistaken, expert says PRINCE Harry was mistaken if he thought his recent stunt visit to China would overshadow the King's trip to Canada, a royal expert has said. The Duke of Sussex made a shock solo appearance in the east Asian nation on the same day King Charles and Queen Camilla touched down in Canada for a crucial state visit. Harry was attending a global travel and tourism conference in Shanghai while the King ceremonially opened a session of the Canadian Parliament - being the first monarch to do so since 1957. However, a royal expert has claimed that if Harry attempted to overshadow the King's visit to Canada, he failed. Speaking on The Sun's Royal Exclusive Show, royal correspondent Bronte Coy said Charles' "impactful" speech was miles above what Harry could have achieved in his time in China. In response to a question of whether Harry could be "trying to steal the limelight", she said his stage appearance "didn't really make the cut". Harry's visit to China saw him speak on the importance of sustainable travel on behalf of Travalyst, an organisation he co-founded, which promotes environmentally friendly tourism. During his address to the Envision 2025 Global Partner Conference, Harry told the travel industry it needed to do more to hit its climate change targets before 2030. He added that the Asia-Pacific region is "strongly positioned to do this". Linking this back to Meghan's own life and recent changes, Bronte added: "Meghan has had a very clear career strategy this year - we've seen it roll out - there is a plan in place. "With Harry, it feels so scattergun. It's largely been the court cases - when I think of what has happened this year in terms of what he's generated headlines for and the work he's been doing. "It's been the interview he did after losing that court case in the UK - and the interview and speaking about his father. "He pops up in China for this on the day that his father and stepmother arrive in Canada. "And it just, again, feeds that narrative that there doesn't seem to be a clear approach of what he's doing. "He seems lost." While in China, Harry addressed the Envision 2025 Global Partner Conference, telling the travel industry it needed to do more to hit its climate change targets before 2030.
