King Charles and Prince William have ‘crossed Harry off their list,’ frozen him out: expert

King Charles and Prince William are at their wits’ end over Prince Harry, according to a royal expert.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex returned home last week from their three-day trip to Nigeria.

While the pair were visiting the West African country “in a private capacity,” their visit had all the markings of a traditional royal tour.

And according to author Christopher Andersen, Harry was already “crossed off” the list by his estranged father, 75, and brother, 41, before his trip.

“They have chosen to ignore Harry, to freeze him out, and to not let him get under their skin when they are facing so many critical challenges,” Andersen told Fox News.

“In a way, I think that is even sadder. It’s been said that hate isn’t the opposite of love — indifference is.”

The Sussexes, who quit royal life in 2020, were invited to Nigeria by the country’s chief of defense staff — its highest-ranking military official.

“The King and Prince William are not surprised when Harry makes trips abroad, even when Meghan [Markle] accompanies him,” Andersen added.

“And I don’t get the sense they begrudge Harry [for] his ties to Africa. Charles and William have crossed Harry off their list for a plethora of reasons, but making a brief trip with one reporter and one photographer in tow isn’t one of them.”

Last week, author and royal expert Tom Quinn told the Mirror that the couple’s trip “confirmed the worst fears” of Harry’s family.

According to Quinn, the Sussexes’ trip made Prince William and King Charles “absolutely furious.”

“Everything you might expect from an official royal visit was there — the receptions, the visits to schools and charities, to wounded soldiers and the disabled,” he said. “Charles is said to be angrier than anyone has ever seen him.”

During their visit to the nation that Markle referred to as “my country,” the Duchess of Sussex co-hosted a Women in Leadership event with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, director general of the World Trade Organization.

The mom of two said it was “eye-opening” and “humbling” to learn more about her heritage during their travels.

The pair received over 20 gifts during their visit — all of which they were able to keep since they are no longer working royals.
