The Duke of Sussex has “ruled out life as a man of action to become a fairy lover” with an “awakened west coast life,” a royal biographer said.
Prince Harry, 36, and Meghan Markle, 39, currently reside at their $ 14 million mansion in Santa Barbara with one-year-old son Archie, and have amassed up to £ 100 million in deals with Spotify and Netflix.
Royal expert Angela Levin, who wrote Harry: Conversations with the Prince in 2018, has claimed that the Duke has become a “shadow of his old self” since he moved to California.
Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, he said that while Prince Harry “refused to be” Prince William’s spare “, he seems to agree to be Meghan’s second.”

The biographer said Prince Harry’s recent appearances were “out of character” of the king he knew, who would instantly identify with everyone he spoke to.
He referred to his previous work with Help for Heroes, disabled and teenagers from dysfunctional homes, but said it feels like a distant memory compared to the version of the prince he sees today.
The biographer also referred to this year’s Remembrance Day, when Harry and Meghan celebrated a visit to Los Angeles National Cemetery to pay tribute to fallen Commonwealth soldiers.
The couple was criticized for arranging for celebrity fashion photographer Lee Morgan to capture their personal act of remembrance, and many called the visit a “publicity stunt.”

Angela said Harry, in particular, would have been a great source of consolation for the British during the Covid pandemic, but regretted being hidden in Santa Barbara throughout the pandemic.
However, he commented that reports that the couple wants a 12-month extension to the Megxit deal indicate that the duke lacks “all the privileges” to be royal, including his honorary military titles and charity. .
She said, “Maybe you just realize that royalty is forever, but celebrity isn’t.”
His comments come days after royal expert Hugo Vickers said Prince Harry “was isolated from his family, the army, his friends and the Commonwealth” in the United States, telling The Telegraph: “It’s an existence useless in self-exile “.
He claimed that Harry, pictured giving a TIME 100 talk last year from his home in California, has become a “shadow of his old self” since he moved to the United States.
The royal biographer compared the actions of Prince Harry to those of Prince William, 38, and Kate Middleton, 38, and added: “During the palms of the NHS, I thought how, after applauding the Cambridges, it would have been great to hear from him. “
Earlier this week, the Duke and Duchess launched the website of their non-profit organization Archewell and set their goal of “building a better world” in an open letter posted online.
But the site prominently connects the couple’s commercial companies: Archewell Audio, the brand they have chosen for their £ 30 million podcasting deal with Spotify, and Archewell Productions, their chosen name for their link to Netflix production, which is worth up to £ 100 million. .
Since leaving the senior royal post in March and moving to the United States, Harry and Meghan have been working at the moment to officially launch, albeit softly, the website and philosophy behind their Archewell organization.

His decision to leave was based on both personal and financial freedom and the huge amounts – believed to be in excess of £ 100 million – that he has earned from deals with Spotify and Netflix, and gives them the capital to pursue their new lifestyle and public goals.
The announcement followed her first Spotify podcast on Tuesday, which saw her son Archie debut on broadcast.
Commentators have already speculated that Harry and Meghan will have to attract numerous audiences to justify the lucrative contract signed by their producer Archewell Audio.
