‘MISSES ARMY, TELLS PALS LIFE IS NOT THE SAME
London: The Duke of Sussex has reportedly admitted he “cannot believe” what has happened since deciding to step down as a senior royal.
The Telegraph reported he told friends he “misses the camaraderie” of the Armed Forces life. He was forced to give up his military roles after he and Meghan decided to quit the UK in January.
The Prince, 35, spent many happy years in the Army and was known as “Captain Wales”. A source revealed: “Harry has told friends he is really missing the Army as well as his military appointments. He misses the camaraderie of being in the forces.
“He has been telling friends that he still can’t believe this has happened. He can’t believe his life has been turned upside down.
“He was in a happy place when he was serving in the Army, then he met Meghan and since then life has been great. But I don’t think he foresaw things turning out quite as they did.
“Of course he doesn’t blame Meghan. There is just a sense that he might have been better protected if he was still in the Army.”
Under the Megxit deal, Prince Harry no longer uses HRH or his honorary military titles.
He is however still able to wear his medals. Harry was made Captain General of the Royal Marines in 2017, taking on the position from his grandfather Prince Philip.
The 35-year-old, who undertook two tours of Afghanistan, was said to have been devastated by the loss.
He will still keep up his work with the Invictus games, a sporting event for injured military personnel he launched in 2014.
