Prince Harry will reportedly demand an apology from his brother, Prince William, and the cancer-stricken Kate Middleton, if he and Meghan Markle are to step back into the Royal Family to potentially resume their duties as working members.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex stood down from their posts in 2020 following a period of bad press from the British public and a deteriorating relationship with those within the family.

They headed out to the United States, to California, in an attempt to make it on their own with their son before they had a daughter. Out there, they have tried to strike up television deals and have tried to grow their foundation and they maintain their presence at the Invictus Games.

But now they could attempt to get back into the royal fold, although Prince Harry reportedly wants a huge apology before he decides to try to fix things with his older brother, who he has reportedly experienced a rivalry with since they were young kids.

"He wants to reconcile with his brother so that the children can have some kind of a relationship," Tom Quinn, a royal author, said to The Mirror. "But he and Meghan still think that a grovelling apology needs to come from William and Kate first.

"Harry has spoken to friends about his sadness at not have a closer relationship with his niece and nephews, but what is upsetting him even more is the prospect of Lilibet and Archie having no relationship at all with George, Charlotte and Louis.

"He has implied that if he gets an apology from his family then he is prepared to forgive, but that just isn't going to happen."

Is the royal expert right?

The last thing that was publicly heard was that Meghan Markle was the one who reached out to Kate Middleton, after her abdominal surgery in January, to offer her well wishes and to suggest they could begin to reopen the door to each other.

The Princess of Wales was said to be receptive to the idea, although she wouldn't pressure her husband to cross a bridge that he doesn't intend to cross. Then, weeks later, Prince William was reportedly saying to his friends that he wouldn't allow his younger brother to offer help to King Charles III after his cancer diagnosis.

So on the balance of that, it would appear Prince Harry wants to fix things and is taking actions to do so, but that it's the Duke of Cornwall who seems to be unwilling to repair their relationship.

Although there is no doubt that Prince Harry's very public actions in recent years will have caused damage too, such as the infamous Oprah interview and his 2023 memoir, Spare.

This also appears to be the impression of ITV's Chris Ship, who serves as their royal editor.

"Harry and Meghan have both been in touch with their brother/sister-in-law," Ship said to ITV. "But did so privately.

"It not clear if that was a phone/video call or some messages of support."

Meghan Markle came to UK to outshine the Queen but failed (Photos)

A renowned author Barbara Taylor Bradford has claimed that Meghan Markle came to Britain to be the star of the red carpet.

A Woman Of Substance author, gave an impression in her opinion as the Duchess of Sussex came to the UK to outshine the Queen, but failed.

Bradford, who has lived in New York for decades, claimed: 'Meghan came to the UK imagining she'd be the star of the red carpet, even though she wasn't much more than a starlet in America.'

"What she didn't realise is that we already have a shining star on the red carpet, someone who's been there for 70 years. She's called the Queen," the author told The Daily Mail.

She added: 'The Queen is magnificent, and William and Kate grow in stature day by day. She's divine — and how does she stay so slim?'

Sharing her knowledge about the former Suits star, the author - who was handed an OBE by the Queen - claimed the Duchess of Sussex tried and failed to outshine the Queen.

Bradford, who has lived in New York for decades, went on to say: 'The Queen is magnificent, and William and Kate grow in stature day by day. She's divine — and how does she stay so slim?'

Meghan flew commercial on secret trip to Toronto

Duchess Meghan made a secret trip to Toronto to visit her best friend, visionary style consultant and entrepreneur Jessica Mulroney.

Meghan, 37, who traveled without Prince Harry, flew commercial round-trip to Toronto for the three-day trip, ABC News has learned.

“Meghan spent three days holed up at Jessica Mulroney and her husband Ben’s home in Toronto,” said Omid Scobie, ABC News royal contributor. “They spent their days catching up, cooking together and, of course, playing with Jessica’s children, who love their 'Auntie Meg.'”

Meghan and Jessica, who met while Meghan lived in Toronto while filming “Suits,” also had a chance to catch up with old friends during Meghan’s under-the-radar visit.

“There was one evening when Meghan and Jessica secretly headed out into the town to meet some of Meghan’s old, good friends,” Scobie said.

Mulroney and her family played a starring role in Meghan’s May wedding to Prince Harry on the grounds of Windsor Castle.

Mulroney and her husband sat in the front row at the wedding, across the aisle from the royal family. Their twin sons, Brian and John, served as page boys in the wedding and their daughter, Ivy, was a bridesmaid.

Brian and John, 7, memorably held the train of Meghan’s Givenchy dress as she walked up the steps of St. George’s Chapel.

Mulroney, also a bridal consultant, assisted Meghan with planning her high-profile wedding. She has also continued to consult her best friend on style choices for high-profile royal engagements.

Meghan wore a $595 tuxedo dress by a Canadian designer, Judith and Charles, when she and Harry attended a gala performance of “Hamilton” Wednesday in London.

The performance, which benefited Harry’s charity Sentebale, was the couple’s first public event after enjoying a few weeks out of the public eye.

Harry and Meghan visited Prince Charles’s Castle of Mey in Scotland and also enjoyed an Italian getaway at the Lake Como home of George and Amal Clooney.

The couple is now preparing for a busy fall schedule that will include their first major royal tour. Harry and Meghan will visit Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga on behalf of Queen Elizabeth and the Foreign & Commonwealth Office.

Next spring, Meghan and Harry are scheduled to make their first tour to the United States at the request of the U.K. Foreign Office and the British government.

Meghan reportedly has no plans to visit her father, Thomas Markle, who has caused tension with her by speaking to the press.

“There have been reports that Meghan was planning to secretly fly out to Mexico to spend time with her father but right now she has absolutely no plans to see him,” Scobie said.

Meghan Markle branded 'a woman at war with everyone' (Photos)

A TV host launched into a brutal verbal attack on Meghan Markle on live television, accusing her of being "a woman at war with everyone".

During an analysis of the Queen's speech and other Royal Family events over Christmas, TV host and writer Sophile Elsworth had many positive things to say about Kate Middleton and Her Majesty.

But things turned sour when the Aussie unloaded fierce criticism at the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Express reports.

When asked whether Harry and Meghan would be "welcome around the Christmas table" by the Queen, Ms Elsworth claimed the California-based pair "would absolutely not" be.

She went further in her analysis, noting: “The Queen in her speech didn’t mention Meghan or Harry."

The writer continued her barrage alluding to Meghan's court victory against the Mail on Sunday for publishing letters between her and her father, Thomas Markle.

She said: “Now she has had this court case that she has won against the newspaper.

“She has won this court case, this might be a win for Meghan!"

Off the back of the case, the Aussie went on to accuse Meghan, saying “she is at war with everyone!”

Ms Elsworth suggested: “This woman falls out with everyone!

“She falls out with her best friends, her own father, her step sister, her in-laws!

“I mean the list goes on and on!”

In a nasty jab at the Duchess of Sussex, Ms Elsworth added how she “just wishes there was a day where I don’t have to hear about Meghan Markle”.

A representative for the Sussexes has been contacted for comment.
