Prince Harry Struggles with Losing Another Key Tie to His Royal Past
Prince Harry appears to be grappling with yet another significant change as he parts ways with one of his most cherished commitments.
The Duke of Sussex is reportedly still coming to terms with his decision to step away from Sentebale, the African charity he co-founded, which he regarded as a continuation of the humanitarian work championed by his late mother, Princess Diana.
After relinquishing his senior royal duties in 2020, Harry, alongside his wife Meghan Markle, relocated to the United States. Despite the physical and official separation from the monarchy, he remained devoted to select causes that had been close to his heart for years.
However, a royal expert suggests that Harry’s departure from Sentebale marks the loss of one of the two remaining causes that defined his former royal life and showcased his natural charisma and leadership—Sentebale and the Invictus Games.
Observers have long noted the stark contrast in Harry’s demeanor when discussing his philanthropic work compared to his life in California.
“When he speaks about Sentebale and the Invictus Games, his passion is unmistakable. He is working toward something greater than himself, rather than for personal gain,” royal author Hugo Vickers shared in the *Daily Mail.
Vickers also praised Harry’s pivotal role in shaping the Invictus Games, emphasizing how the Duke empowered wounded soldiers by encouraging them to reclaim their strength and independence through competitive sports.
Meanwhile, as Harry and Meghan continue carving their independent path outside the royal institution, speculation remains about the emotional toll these decisions are taking on him.
These revelations come amid reports that Prince Harry was deeply saddened upon learning that he was not informed earlier about his father, King Charles’ recent hospitalization due to cancer.
As Harry navigates these personal and professional crossroads, questions linger about what remains of his connection to his former royal life—and whether he is ready to let go completely.
