The Duke of Sussex has fallen out with five important people who once graced his life – all of which are since he started his relationship with Meghan Markle.
Prince Harry has reportedly fallen out with at least five people who were said to be a major part of his life prior to meeting Meghan Markle back in 2016.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are parents of two, are reportedly “going their own ways” in their professional lives, according to many royal experts.
The couple, who have been married since 2018, are said to be “living life separately” when it comes to their careers – with the Duke’s friendship circle also having shifted since their wedding day.
Since announcing their plans to step down as senior working royals, Meghan and Harry now reside in California – more than 5,000 miles from their former life in the UK.
Here, Express.co.uk delves into five close bonds that Harry appears to have lost since marrying Meghan.
Prince William and Princess Kate
Despite Harry and Meghan previously dubbed the ‘fab four’ along with the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duke of Sussex is no longer on speaking terms with his brother. Harry has reportedly also not spoken to his sister-in-law, who he previously dubbed as ‘the sister he’d never had’.
Speaking of the funeral of Lord Robert Fellowes – which was attended by both Harry and William back in August – royal expert Phil Dampier previously told Fabulous: “They are as far apart as ever and William’s priority is to look after Kate as she recovers from abdominal surgery and to step up his royal duties to cover for the King. But it does seem odd that Harry likes flying in and out for less than two days.
“He did the same with the Coronation and it looks as though he is just not interested in seeing any of his old friends. He has become Harry No Mates as far as the UK is concerned.”
He added: “This may be because some of his friends in England didn’t take to Meghan and he resented it so he has cut them out of his life.”
Victoria and David Beckham are said to have previously shared a close friendship with both Meghan and Harry.
However, in 2018, Harry allegedly called David to accuse him and his wife of leaking stories – a claim that is said to have left David “furious”.
David was also “snubbed” by Harry after flying from London to Sydney at the royal’s request to attend the 2018 Invictus Games. Since their relationship began to strain, David now seemingly bonding more with Harry’s brother Prince William.
Dominic West
Prince Harry has also reportedly cut ties with his former actor friend Dominic West.
Harry, 40, is alleged to have “thrown a s*** fit” after Dominic claimed the pair drunk champagne from a prosthetic leg.
The royal has reportedly not spoken to star, who appeared as Prince Charles on The Crown, since he made the claims in 2014, according to the Daily Mail.
Discussing Harry in 2022, a pal of West’s said: “He accused Dominic of invading his privacy. Dominic told him not to be ridiculous. They haven’t spoken since.”
