Graham Norton shares his views on Harry and Meghan
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may never be reconciled with the Royal Family as reports claim that Prince William has "banned" his brother from ever making a return.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex quit the Firm in 2020 and relations with the royals have been strained ever since, although a royal expert believes King Charles would more easily forgive Harry.
Commentator Dee Dee Dunleavy said: "There’s talk that William is the enforcer, the tough guy of the Royal Family. King Charles is a pushover, I think he’d take Harry back in a heartbeat.
"I can see William’s point of view as well, he’s more protective of the upset that Harry caused while the Queen was in her dying weeks.
"That’s probably why William has such a strong feeling toward Harry but I just can’t see [Prince Harry rejoining the family] happening."
She added that being in contact with the Sussexes "devalues their currency" for the Royal Family.

The eerie similarities between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle & Edward and Wallis Simpson
When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement in November 2017, it was not the first time that a member of the British Royal Family had married a divorced American woman.
In 1936, Edward VIII, the uncle of Queen Elizabeth II, became King and shortly after declared his love for Wallis Simpson, announcing that he was prepared to abdicate the throne.
Edward was monarch for just 11 months in total, with the throne passing to his younger brother George VI, however the Royal Family were never able to forgive Edward for his perceived betrayal.
The couple, known after the abdication as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, spent the rest of their life in exile in France and were never forgiven by the Firm.
Is Queen Camilla to blame for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Balmoral snub?

A source told Express.co.uk earlier that despite reports that the Sussexes will make an appearance at Balmoral this summer it is highly unlikely.
The insider claims that the reason could be due to the Duke of Sussex's rather fractured relationship with Queen Camilla."The King was very keen to keep everyone happy during the Balmoral stay this year," said the source.

From Queen Victoria welcoming troops back from Crimea to the late Queen Elizabeth II's platinum jubilee and, most recently, Trooping the Colour, the Buckingham Palace balcony has long been a central point of royal national events for many years.
