Bowed out for good?
Royal biographer Andrew Morton is claiming Prince Harry, 38, and Meghan Markle, 42, won’t return to the UK because she wouldn’t wish to curtsy to Kate Middleton, 41, when Prince William, 41, becomes king.
On Sky News’ “Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips,” the biographer, who collaborated with Princess Diana on 1992’s “Diana: Her True Story,” was asked concerning the Duke and Duchess of Sussex coming back to Britain.
The couple stepped back as senior members of the royal family in 2020 and decamped to California.
“What, and have Meghan Markle curtsying to Kate Middleton?” snarked Morton, 70. “I don’t think so. I don’t see that as a runner. They’ve got their very own lives in California.”
“They’ve got their very own set, they’ve got their very own influence, and so they’ve got their very own corporations,” continued Morton.
In keeping with royal protocol, Markle would only be required to bow to Middleton once the latter ascends the throne.
The Post reached out to Morton and Markle for comment.
Morton’s comments aired after Harry announced he will probably be traveling home — without Markle — to attend the WellChild awards in London on Thursday before heading to Germany, where he’ll link up along with his wife for the Invictus Games for injured soldiers.
An unidentified royal insider told the Day by day Mail that Harry is not going to be granted an audience along with his father, as King Charles III, 74, has “no time within the diary” to see his youngest son.
The estranged redheaded royal will even not be seeing William, though it’s rumored that William and Kate are “nervous” a few potential “outburst” from Harry during his UK trip.
Harry’s tour home coincides with the primary anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s Sept. 8 death, though it’s unclear if he has been invited to take part in any official remembrance ceremonies.
Just last week, in a recent Netflix series concerning the Invictus Games, Harry slammed the royals for the “lack of support” over the 1997 death of his mother.
“I didn’t have that support structure, that network, or that expert advice to discover what was actually happening with me,” he lamented of the troubling aftermath of Diana’s fatal automobile crash.
In his bombshell novel “Spare,” Harry claimed his father never hugged him following Diana’s death. Charles and Diana were married from 1981 to 1996.
“He wasn’t great at showing emotions under normal circumstances, how could he be expected to point out them in such a crisis?” Harry wondered.
Harry seems unbothered about his upcoming trip — he and Markle were spotted supporting a unique monarch Friday after they attended Beyoncé’s “Renaissance” tour stop at SoFi Stadium in California.
Though Markle gave the impression to be getting in “formation,” Harry was dragged on social media for looking “bored.”
