The couple is now living in someone else’s mansion with their son, Archie, who turns one on Wednesday.
According to a source speaking to The Daily Telegraph Harry has been blubbering to friends, “he still can’t believe this has happened. He can’t believe his life has been turned upside down.”
Boo Hoo Harry Misses What He Left Behind
The source said that Harry, “misses the camaraderie of being in the forces … he is really missing the Army as well his military appointments. He misses the camaraderie of being in the forces.” Hmmm, he a has a newly installed wife for that now, does this mean … Nah!
Harry himself brought about Megxit, the notorious very public exit from his family, country, and yes, military connections. Yet the source says that Harry now claims he would have been, “better protected,” from all of the drama and chaos (he initiated) in recent months if he was still in the Army.
As a result of his actions and declared wishes to leave royal life, Harry’s military appointments ceased when he and Meghan relinquished being senior royals on March 31, aka Megxit.
Harry quit the Army in 2015 after two tours of Afghanistan during a ten-year career. At the time he said he was looking forward to a “new chapter.”
Does Harry Regret What He Lost More Than He Likes What He Gained?
Harry does retain the rank of major although he had to give up his roles as Captain-General of the Royal Marines and Honorary Air Commandant of RAF Honington. This is how the adult world works Harry: quid pro quo—look it up. You get the glitterball of Hollywood at the expense of all you once knew—was it worth it?
According to the source, Harry “was in a happy place when he was serving in the Army, then he met Meghan and since then life has been great. But I don’t think he foresaw things turning out quite as they did.”
The source added that Harry doesn’t blame his wife for wanting to return to her favorite environment but, “There is just a sense that he might have been better protected if he was still in the Army.”
