During the last four years, several relationships between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and members of both of their families have deteriorated - namely with both of Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet's grandfathers, King Charles and Thomas Markle. It is these important relationships which the young royals - who are aged just four and two - are missing out on.

A new documentary has claimed Prince Harry "doesn't see his part in the family bust-up".The programme, which is titled Prince Harry's Mission: Life, Family, and the Invictus Games, also dubbed Prince William as "jealous" of Harry's success with Invictus and even claimed that King Charles doesn't have a relationship with his grandchildren Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Following on from the new show - which is streaming on Disney-owned platform Hulu - former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond spoke to OK! about the suggestion that Harry does not understand the part he has played in the events of the last four years.

The Duke of Sussex made a surprise virtual appearance at the Sport Gives Back Awards which took place this evening (Wednesday, February 28) in London.The awards recognise the role that grassroots sport can play in addressing social challenges, the awards winners were nominated by their respective charities to thank them for their work in their communities. As Founding Patron of the Invictus Games Foundation, one of the charities honoured this evening, Prince Harry joined virtually to pay tribute to the Foundation’s community liaison Manager Josh Boggi, who was chosen as winner of the Unconquered Award.

Prince Harry is set to appeal against a High Court ruling dismissing his challenge over a decision to change the level of his personal security when he visits the UK, a spokesperson for the royal has said.The Duke of Sussex took legal against the Home Office over the February 2020 decision of the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) that he should receive a different degree of taxpayer-funded protection when in the country. The decision came as a result of a change in the duke's "status" after he stopped being a "full-time working member of the Royal Family." And on Wednesday (28 February) retired High Court judge Sir Peter Lane rejected the duke's case and concluded Ravec's approach was not irrational nor procedurally unfair.

During her time as a member of the Royal Family, the Duchess of Sussex had to follow a number of unique royal rules when it came to official gatherings - including a rather unique way to use the toilet during an dinner party. Some rules are standard practice, such as mastering table manners, but others are somewhat surprising. As well as not eating certain foods to avoid any embarrassing mishaps or spills, another custom about how and when the royals can use the bathroom is less than expected.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are known for not shying away from showing their affection for each other when they're out in public.The pair often hold hands or show other signs of love - something which separates them from the usual formality we see in the Royal Family. An expert has explained that the way Meghan and Harry hold hands means something special and he called it a "powerful" sign. Body language expert, Inbaal Honigman, spoke to The Express and revealed that different ways of holding hands can send out different signals.

The launch of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's website Sussex.com was not without controversy, as many questioned whether it was in contravention of a promise made to the late Queen to not capitalise on their royal titles.The new homepage - which replaced the couple's former website Archewell - is the new source to receive updates on Prince Harry and Meghan's charitable activities. Despite the sleek design, experts questioned the couple's choice to use their royal titles on the new project, as well as having Meghan's official coat of arms featured so prominently.

King Charles is reportedly putting plans in place for the eventual succession of the Prince of Wales - but it seems Prince Harry has been left out of these secret discussions. King Charles was diagnosed with cancer last month after a routine operation for an enlarged prostate.

Prince Harry is facing a court showdown over his US visa application, following revelations about drug use in his memoir Spare.The Duke of Sussex has previously detailed his past experiences with drugs, and these admissions in his book could now cause him some trouble.This week, Harry's name is at the heart of a court case regarding efforts by the US Government to keep his immigration records private. Harry recently said during the Invictus One Year To Go Event that he has thought about becoming a US citizen - but this could be at risk if the judge decides against him in the court case happening in Washington this Friday, 23 February. A US think-tank group is petitioning for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to publish Harry's immigration records to find out whether he admitted to his drug use when he entered the US in 2020.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made a return to the public stage last week as they travelled to Canada to attend the Invictus Games One Year To Go Event.

As well as the worries about Kate's health, William has been dealt further blows with his father King Charles' cancer diagnosis and rumours about his brother Prince Harry wanting to return to Royal duties.

Prince Harry's surprising 11-word answer when asked directly about returning to Royal duties has made King Charles' slimmed-down monarchy look even slimmer, with several key members currently unable to fulfil their roles. The King himself has had to cancel all upcoming public engagements as he undergoes treatment for cancer, while the Princess of Wales is also out of the public eye until at least after Easter as she recovers from abdominal surgery.

A leading royal expert and author has suggested that Prince Harry will need to say sorry to Queen Camilla to mend his relationship with his father, King Charles.

The Duchess of Sussex famously received her big break when she starred as Rachel Zane in the hit legal series Suits - something which she has now addressed on her and Prince's Harry's brand new website. Despite it being rumoured that Meghan is in "advanced talks" to make a return to the silver screen, her focus appears to be in another direction as the recent low-profile launch of Sussex.com suggests the Duchess has her sights set on new endeavours.

Ever since they stepped back as senior members of the Royal Family, the lives of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been heavily documented - from their latest projects to comments they've made in interviews, TV appearances and books. While key members of The Firm have approached the situation with nothing but dignified silence or made it clear that the door is still open to Harry and Meghan, others who have been cut out of the couple's lives have spoken out. Whether it is close family members, former childhood friends or ex co-stars, the public is frequently afforded an insider view into how or why those who have been left out in the cold no longer speak to the couple.

Meghan Markle's former Suits co-stars, Patrick J Adams and Gabriel Macht, have revealed they have had "no communication" with the Duchess, despite once being incredibly close and invited to the 2018 royal wedding. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter on the set of T-Mobile's Super Bowl commercial, in which the duo feature, the pair were asked: "Have you spoken to Meghan Markle recently?" Referring to the recent streaming success the hit legal drama is experiencing, Gabriel said: "I have not communicated with her other than seeing her big support for the resurgence, and that has been really nice." The comments come weeks after the pair were asked a similar question at the Golden Globes after it was speculated whether Meghan would make a return to the show.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were noticeably absent from the Super Bowl last night, despite being invited by American football bosses. The Duke of Sussex was asked to watch the San Francisco 49ers take on the Kansas City Chiefs after his appearance at the NFL Honours ceremony on Thursday.

To say it’s been a difficult start to the year for the Princess of Wales would be an understatement.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's big dreams might be crumbling as their massive Netflix deal is set to end in a few months.
