The Duke of Sussex remains in a bitter feud with senior royals including his brother Prince William

The Royal Family are standing firm as Prince Harry's 'perfect scenario' is not possible amid his ongoing feud with Prince William.

The Duke of Sussex stepped down as a working member of the Royal Family in 2020 alongside his wife Meghan Markle.


Harry wanted to remain as a part-time working royal but the option was quickly closed off by the late Queen and senior members of the monarchy.

Despite this, reports have been circling that an ally of Harry's is creating a road map to help the Duke of Sussex undertake some royal duties if he returns to the UK.

However, a royal insider has hit out at the plan and reiterated that Harry will not be allowed to hold a role within the monarchy.

The source told the Daily Beast: "Harry is a broken record at this stage. We all know he would love to be given a part-time royal role, but Queen Elizabeth was very clear that he couldn’t be half in and half out.

"Nothing has changed. Whoever is promulgating these ludicrous theories on Harry’s behalf is simply pretending to not get the message that he is not wanted."

Last month, a source who has known the Duke of Sussex since his teenage years told The Times that Harry and Meghan are finding alternative ways to tap into the royal lifestyle despite having no official role in the Firm.

They said: "He made his decision [to leave] for his family — that was the right choice and he has no regrets.

"One of the primary reasons for them leaving the UK was the institutional and media issues they felt they faced, so for that they must feel vindicated.

"But did he get what he wanted? No. The perfect scenario was to get what they originally asked for — ‘We’d like to move and still be semi-royals.’ So they’re finding another way of doing it."

Harry has been open about his desire to be provided with a higher level of security when visiting the country of his birth.

It is understood that concern over his and his family's security remains an issue.

However, one of the Duke of Sussex's friends had devised a plan for Harry's return, according to the Mail.

A source told the publication: "He has put together a blueprint and will show it to Harry if and when there’s an appropriate moment.

"This person believes there is a real chance Harry could even carry out very low-key royal duties again one day."
