Meghan Markle is said to be &#8216;encouraging Prince Harry to leave the past behind and move on&#8217;, according to a royal expert.
Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond has praised the Montecito-based Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍, 43, for urging her husband to look towards the future.
&#8216;If Meghan is encouraging Harry to leave the past behind and move on, then I think it is a healthy move. They have made their decision, left the working royal family and left the UK,&#8217; the royal expert told OK! magazine.
She continued: &#8216;Brooding on the perceived injustices of the past and re-living old quarrels is a waste of a life, and I think Meghan sees that.&#8217;
The couple moved to California back in 2020 with their son Prince Archie, as they stepped back as working royals. Princess Lilibet was born a year later in 2021.

This is what Meghan and Harry have always wanted &#8211; to create their own life,&#8217; a royal insider told PEOPLE at the time. &#8216;It&#8217;s got to feel like an immense relief to get out of the UK and go down their own path.&#8217;
However, in his tell-all memoir, Prince Harry hinted that he misses some of his old family life, as Bond explained.
She said: &#8216;In his book Spare he writes about his fond memories of some of those family gatherings, and it&#8217;s only natural that he now misses that connection and perhaps is still considering ways of repairing the damage done in recent years.&#8217;
But the royal expert suggested that Meghan likely believes that their time within the Royal Family is now &#8216;firmly&#8217; in the past.
Harry&#8217;s friends in the UK have also spoken out about the Duke&#8217;s reported dissatisfaction, saying things haven&#8217;t turned out &#8216;how he wanted&#8217;.
According to The Times, one of Harry&#8217;s &#8216;oldest friends&#8217; who gets &#8216;the odd WhatsApp from him&#8217;, said:  &#8216;He&#8217;s an angry boy. Things haven&#8217;t turned out how he wanted. I think he misses being over here [in Britain] desperately and wants to be admired more.&#8217;
In their six-part Netflix series in December 2022, Harry said of his and Meghan&#8217;s move to California, &#8216;We are exactly where we&#8217;re supposed to be.&#8217; But then the Duke added: &#8216;I miss the UK.&#8217;
With Harry&#8217;s hints at a desire to rebuild relationships with family back in the UK, could there be a reconciliation on the cards?

After the news of King Charles&#8217; cancer diagnosis earlier this year, Harry quickly returned to the UK to be by his father&#8217;s side, though their meeting was reported to last less than 45 minutes.
&#8216;The fact that I was able to get on a plane and go to see him, and spend any time with him, I&#8217;m grateful for that,&#8217; he said on ABC&#8217;s Good Morning America a few days after the visit. &#8216;Any illness, any sickness, brings families together.&#8217;
But it may be a long road to reconciliation ahead of Harry, with the Duke&#8217;s previous revelations in his memoir and during his Netflix show causing potentially irreversible damage.
A source close to Charles explained to The Times: &#8216;The problem for the King and other members of the family is the worry that if they have a chat with Harry, it will appear in volume two.
&#8216;How do you regain the trust? I don&#8217;t think Harry ever can. But from the conversations I&#8217;ve had with the King, I would never say their relationship is irreparable. The King&#8217;s capacity to forgive his son is undimmed.&#8217;
