PRINCE Harry has always wanted out of the Royal Family and the repercussions will be felt for years, an expert has claimed.

The Duke of Sussex has lived in California with his wife Meghan Markle since 2020 after they dramatically quit their jobs as working royals and moved across the pond.

And Katie Nicholl, who is Vanity Fair's royal correspondent, told The Sun's Royal Exclusive show that Megxit did not come as a surprise to her.

Speaking to The Sun's Royal Editor Matt Wilkinson, the commentator explained: "Anyone who knows Harry is aware he's always wanted a way out of the Royal Family.

"He's said multiple times on the record that he wished he'd never been born a prince.

"I think he really is living the life he wants to now. It's very, very sad that it's played out the way it has.

"I personally think with better organisation and a bit more foresight about how they wanted to leave the Royal Family and have this other life in America.

"I think there was a way of making it work. It all just felt very hastily sketched out.

"Not thoroughly thought through and the repercussions are still being felt because of that today."

It comes as another royal expert claimed Harry is "sad" and is "missing his old life in the UK".
