'Lonely' Prince Harry in California has only bodyguards for company
Prince Harry may be living in a $14 million Italian-style mansion in California with his wife Meghan Markle and their two children, but life behind closed doors is reportedly far from perfect for the Duke of Sussex. According to NewsNation, which cited unnamed sources close to the royal, Prince Harry is feeling 'desperately lonely,' cut off from long-time friends and family, and struggling to form close relationships in the US. 'He doesn't really have any real friends in the area except for polo star Nacho Figueras, and Nacho travels constantly for matches," a friend told the outlet. 'He spends a lot of his time chilling with his bodyguards." Though Harry remains close to a few old friends from the UK, such as Guy Pelly and Mark Dyer, the time difference and distance have made regular contact difficult. 'There's no one else for him to hang out with besides Nacho, Meghan, and the children," the source added. The report also said that since stepping down from royal duties in 2020, Harry's social circle has grown smaller. 'It's hard to forge deep friendships when you're older especially when you're wary of people leaking things to the press," one insider noted. A friend even compared Harry's current situation to that of his great-great-uncle Edward VIII, who gave up the throne for love and lived abroad. 'It's like history is repeating itself," the friend said. Meanwhile, Meghan Markle reportedly wishes Harry could move on. 'Meghan wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together,' a source told *People* magazine. Prince Harry's Life in California Compared to Edward VIII's Exile Prince Harry's current situation is drawing comparisons to that of his great-great-uncle, Edward VIII, who abdicated the British throne to marry Wallis Simpson and spent the rest of his life abroad, largely distanced from the royal family. A source told NewsNation, 'It's like history is repeating itself,' referring to Harry's estrangement from King Charles and Prince William and his life away from royal duties in the United States. However, unlike Edward and Wallis, Harry and Meghan have remained in the public eye through media projects, including Netflix shows, books, and public appearances. The Duke of Sussex is said to be struggling with loneliness, having left behind most of his social circle in the UK. Though still close to long-time friends like Guy Pelly and Mark Dyer—who also have American wives—they are based in Texas and Virginia, making regular meetings rare. 'It's harder to forge deep friendships with people when you're older, especially if you're wary they may speak to the press,' a friend was quoted as saying. Harry is also reportedly upset about delays in securing British passports for his children, Archie and Lilibet. According to reports, he even sought advice from his uncle, Earl Spencer, about possibly adopting his late mother Princess Diana's surname. While he ultimately did not go with 'Spencer', the Sussexes are said to have dropped 'Mountbatten-Windsor' and now quietly use 'Sussex' as their family name. A source told People magazine, 'Meghan wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together.'

Dakota Johnson Steps Out In A Sheer Black Dress After Breakup With Chris Martin
Last Updated: Following her breakup with Coldplay's Chris Martin, Dakota Johnson stepped out in New York City in a sheer body-hugging dress. Fans call it her 'revenge dressing era.' Actor Dakota Johnson has been making headlines following her split with Coldplay's Chris Martin after dating for eight years. The actor was recently spotted at the NBC Studios at Rockefeller Plaza in New York where she appeared on the latest episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers to promote her film – Materialists. For her appearance on the talk show, the actor opted for a black body-hugging sheer ensemble. Known for her effortlessly chic and confident style, Dakota Johnson pulled off this risque outfit like a pro. The actor paired the black sheer ensemble with minimal accessories to let the outfit do all the talking. In what can be termed as Dakota's revenge dressing era, she stepped out with panache. DAKOTA MAYI JOHNSON TODAY OH MY GOODNESS — ju 🕸 (@dakotasrare) June 5, 2025 Wearing a sheer, figure-hugging bodysuit by London-based designer Nensi Dojaka, Dakota Johnson wore the long-sleeved Renee bodysuit (£530, approximately Rs 61,499) that featured Dojaka's signature anatomical cut-outs and precise paneling. With its sheer detail, the bodysuit was more mesmerizing than flashy, the look drew you in without screaming for attention. Dakota paired it with the matching Mila tulle midi skirt (£700, approximately Rs 81,225), which moved behind her like a soft breeze, adding a hint of romance to the otherwise sultry ensemble. A strapless black bodysuit worn underneath subtly toned things down, striking the perfect balance between bold and refined. As the newly appointed global ambassador for luxury jeweller Roberto Coin, Dakota kept her accessories refreshingly minimal, just dainty earrings and a sleek pair of pointed Saint Laurent Raven sling backs in black. Her glam stayed true to her signature: pin-straight hair, a classic fringe grazing her brows, and an effortless air that's unmistakably Dakota. Dakota and Chris have been romantically linked since 2017. The couple chose to keep their relationship mostly out of the spotlight. Still, they made occasional headlines with rare public outings, like Dakota accompanying Chris on his Coldplay Music of the Spheres tour stop in India earlier this year, or the pair being spotted leaving a Malibu yoga class together in May this year. Despite periodic breakup rumours over the years, insiders have consistently reassured fans that things remained strong between the two. However, a recent exclusive source report from PEOPLE mentions that this might be their 'final' breakup. tags : dakota johnson fashion lifestyle Location : Delhi, India, India First Published: June 07, 2025, 09:08 IST News lifestyle Dakota Johnson Steps Out In A Sheer Black Dress After Breakup With Chris Martin
