Prince Harry cementing his separation from Meghan Markle even further
Experts believe Prince Harry’s recent actions in Hollywood prove that he’s decided to cement his separation from Meghan Markle.
Royal author, Ingrid Seward made these comments during her most recent interview with The Sun.
During that chat the expert touched on the newfound strategy the Sussexes are starting to employ, as well as its potential to take them into “slightly different ways” as a couple.
According to Ms Seward, “I feel that they’re both going slightly different ways to see if it works. They’ve tried it together, and it didn’t work so well. So, they’re doing it separately to see how well it works.”
She even referenced the prince’s surprise appearance on Jimmy Fallon, for their Halloween skit and called the entire thing pure “tomfoolery” before adding how “It’s really good to see a glimpse of the old Harry… and, hopefully, it will resonate with him too.”
Before signing off she also pointed out how, “It just means that they’re doing things in different ways on their own, which is eventually what all members of the Royal Family or members of any family do.”
For those unversed, the Duke and Duchess have been taking on a number of engagements solo in recent weeks, from a charity event in NYC, to South Africa and even the LA charity Meghan visited.

David Walliams delivers savage dig at Simon Cowell after Britain’s Got Talent axe
David Walliams has taken aim at Simon Cowell a year after he was axed from Britain’s Got Talent.
After a decade as one of the judges on the ITV reality talent show, David was fired and replaced by Bruno Tonioli when leaked recordings revealed he’d made scathing remarks about contestants.
The comedian, 53, apologised for his offensive comments but then took production company FremantleMedia to court, suing them for ‘significant damages’.
He eventually reached a settlement, reported to be around £5 million, but has remained tight-lipped about the fallout since then.
In a Q&A segment with young fans, David was asked by a boy called Jasper if ‘any of the characters in your books based on real people?’
‘That is a good question. Whenever I’m trying to think of an evil villain I always think “what would Simon Cowell do?”’ he quipped, leaving hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley bursting out in laughter.
David then went on to explain how a Britain’s Got Talent contestant called Cockroach Ken also inspired a character in a previous book.
He then told kids to ‘keep their eyes and ears open as you never know when you might have a good idea for a story’.
Earlier this year David was questioned about his controversial exit from BGT.
During an appearance on Lorraine, he was asked by host Lorraine Kelly if he’d been watching the latest season of BGT and whether he was ‘sorry’ about how he left.
After looking briefly surprised by the question he responded: ‘I’ve been travelling a lot, so I haven’t had a chance to see it.’
He then went on to say he’s been enjoying all the extra time he’d had to be creative and continued to talk about his writing pursuits and other upcoming projects.’
Although his response made it clear he wasn’t ready to discuss the matter, some fans said his response was ‘diplomatic’ while others labelled him ‘bitter’.
After the case was settled late last year, Fremantle said it was ‘sincerely sorry’ that his ‘private conversations’ were published.
