Meghan Markle latest news – Prince Harry ‘clearly unhappy’ and ’embarrassed’ as Duchess revels in collecting awards

PRINCE Harry looked like a “fish out of water” when he accepted an award with Meghan on Saturday, a body language expert said.

The Duke and Duchess accepted an award at the NAACP Image Awards in LA over the weekend.

But according to Dr Lillian Glass, Prince Harry looked “embarrassed” and like he “didn’t want to be there”.

She also told Express.co.uk that Meghan Marke “on the other hand, is in her element”, explaining: “Harry looked like a fish out of water as he didn’t know what to do or how to comport himself as he looked down at the award and examined it and then rocked back and forth and pulled away from Meghan.

“He straightened up for a while when she quickly turned her head towards him and shot him a not so pleasant look indicating that he was on stage and to be aware of it and to shape up. He purses his lips in embarrassment and then cocks his head like a wounded puppy and then looks at the camera.

“He is not smiling the whole time he is up there. He then forgets and looks back at her and looks down and then returns to facing the camera.”

Dr Glass continued to say that, “Meghan on the other hand is in her element as she looks directly into the camera and speaks eloquently,” while “”Harry is clearly not happy and uncomfortable as indicated through his body language at this event.”

    “First of all, we heard from Prince William and Kate they showed their solidarity with the people of Ukraine having met their president and wife in recent months. 

    “But powerful words from Prince Charles yesterday he was in Southend, the town has become a city for the first time in tribute to the late Sir David Ames who was tragically murdered last year. 

    “I think this is another changing of the guard because we’re hearing from Prince Charles very statesmanlike with those words standing shoulder to shoulder with the people of Ukraine.”

    “Again, something that we’re seeing both Charles and William step to the role that the Queen has had for many years,” he added.

    He must decide whether to return to the UK to visit his beloved grandmother, knowing he’s being paid to reveal all for his mutch anticipated memoir.

    The author said: “I think Harry won’t come back because he knows he cannot face his family, and be pleasant with them, knowing what he’s written about them in that book.” 

    Bower added: “That book will have a lot of casualties and cause a lot of hurt. It will really deliver, as Harry knows it has to, to justify the money he’s been paid to do it.

    “How can Harry come back and pretend it’s all fine? The worst of what he will say is yet to come.”

    But Tom Quinn told the To Di For Daily podcast that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex may be interested in a royal comeback in the future.

    He said: “One interesting thing an insider told me… is that both Meghan and Harry believe that when the elder royals die – in other words, Elizabeth – they may well be able when Charles is King, be able to come back and be the part-time royals that they really wanted to be.

    “So that they would be six months [as] working royals and six months in the States or wherever doing their own thing.”

  • Meghan praised for entering ‘uncharted territory’

    Meghan Markle has been praised after she was compared to a “federal judge or elected official” for marrying into the Royal Family as a black woman.

    The praise came from American lawyer Professor Anita Hill in an op-ed published to commemorate Black History Month.

    Professor Hill wrote in her piece: “After the press conference ended, I sat up straighter and felt grateful to have witnessed another glass ceiling that was shattered in my lifetime.”

    She continued: “I was recently able to connect with one of these women – Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex – and while her role over the past few years hasn’t been that of a federal judge or elected official, I couldn’t help but see a measure of parallelism given her experience navigating uncharted territory as a Black woman”.

  • Harry DOES want ‘to come back to see family’ despite royal rifts

    PRINCE Harry DOES want to “come back to see his family” despite the royal rifts, a lawyer has said in the royal protection row.

    The Duke of Sussex is suing the Home Office because it refused to spend taxpayers’ money on bodyguards.

    Harry, 37, who quit royal duty and privileges that come with the job to live in California with Meghan Markle two years ago, says he feels “unsafe” in the UK.

    He wants to fund his own Met Police armed bodyguards but the Home Office refused and insiders are saying police are not “guns for hire”.

    At the first part of the hearing held last week, the court heard that the duke considers that the UK “is and always will be, his home”.

    Shaheed Fatima QC told the court: “It goes without saying that he does want to come back to see family and friends and to continue to support the charities that are so close to his heart.”

    Harry is challenging the decision made in February 2020 by the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec).

    On Friday, the first hearing in the case continued at the Royal Courts of Justice in London – but Harry was not present.
