Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly ramping up their charm offensive to patch things up with the royals, a pundit has spilled.
Despite being practically cut off from the Windsor clan, it’s believed they’re going all out to mend fences before the 2024 US elections come into play.
A former insider dished to Daily Mail’s Richard Eden that “it seems quite clear that they are desperate to start healing the rift,” hinting that the Sussexes might be worried about potential political moves from Donald Trump’s camp.

There’s lots of quality news coming out of the US.
Even Eric Trump has thrown shade at the Sussex duo while bigging up the royals, telling GB News: “What I can tell you is, my father had so much respect for the [late] Queen, as did I. My mum knew so many of them for years and had a great relationship with Diana.

“It’s a sacred institution. You can happily have those two [Meghan and Harry], we might not want them anymore, it feels like they’re on an island of their own.
“You can always have bad actors in everything. You can have spoiled apples in every orchard. The institution of the Royal Family is beautiful and is admired by many Americans. That should be protected.”
Earlier this year, Donald Trump dropped a bombshell hint that he could kick out Prince Harry from the States if he gets back into the Oval Office after the polls in November. The controversy is all about whether or not Harry fibbed over his past drug use on his US visa form with Trump making it crystal clear the Duke won’t be getting off easy, reports the Mirror.
Prince Harry’s situation stateside has been catching some serious heat lately. In the previous year, the right-leaning Heritage Foundation had Homeland Security (DHS) in their legal crosshairs, demanding a peek at Harry’s entry papers.

They’re itching to find out if Harry fessed up to any drug-taking on his application especially after revealed his wild days with cocaine, weed and even magic mushrooms in his tell-all book Spare.
Trump tackled this topic in a chat with Nigel Farage on GB News. When quizzed about any “special privileges” for Harry, he shot back: “No. We’ll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied they’ll have to take appropriate action.”
Not one to stop there, the former Commander-in-Chief also laid into Harry and Meghan for giving the late Queen the cold shoulder. He blasted: “I think they hurt her really bad,” adding: “I think there was great disrespect to a person I got to know very well and like; the Queen. She was unbelievable, you know.
“I thought she was treated very disrespectfully by them. Although she wouldn’t show it because she was strong and smart, but I would imagine they broke her heart. The things that they were saying was so bad and so horrible and she was in her 90s and hearing this stuff. I think they broke her heart. I think they hurt her really bad.”
