Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have long been compared to the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. Both Harry and Edward VIII became romantically involved with American divorcees and

subsequently relinquished their royal roles. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex forged new lives in the US, while Edward and Wallis Simpson spent the majority of their time in France. Both

couples remained largely distant from the Royal Family they left behind. However, in the wake of Harry’s tell-all memoir, a royal author has claimed there is a key difference between the two

couples. Christopher Anderson, author of the new book The King: The Life of Charles III, appeared on an episode of the To Di For Daily podcast last week. He and host Kinsey Schofield

discussed some of the major revelations in Harry’s memoir, Spare, which hit shelves on January 10. Mr Anderson said: “People want to portray Meghan as a new Wallis Simpson. But in some ways,

she's worse for the monarchy. They [Harry and Meghan] want to burn the place down it looks like. Wallis and the Duke of Windsor went off and led the rest of their very long, long

lives, kind of sadly, out of the spotlight — they weren't going to rock the boat.” Ms Schofield noted the scandal of Edward and Wallis’ exit, referring to their controversial

connections with Nazi Germany, but affirmed that the couple eventually “went off and lived quietly”. She added: “There's no telling what Harry and Megan might do, [they] might decide…to

work privately with charities from now on,” asking Mr Anderson: “Do you think that's going to happen?” READ MORE: HARRY AND MEGHAN'S SECOND NETFLIX DOCUMENTARY PREDICTED TO AIR

AFTER CHARLES' CORONATION In a later interview, Harry suggested a role for him and Meghan could be made in the future. During an appearance on Good Morning America last week, Harry

discussed whether his family would ever move back to the UK, saying a return to his home country would never “be possible,” before claiming it would be “unsurvivable”. The Prince went on to

say that a role in which they could “continue to support the Commonwealth” is “of course on the table”. The Royal Family has not commented on Harry’s remarks, instead choosing to continue

with royal engagements as usual. It has been reported, however, that peace talks may be held ahead of the King’s coronation. According to a report in The Sunday Times last week, a

reconciliation meeting will be held in the coming months. “It’s going to take flexibility on all sides, but it can be done, it’s fixable,” a source told the publication. “It needs Harry over

here, in the room with the King and Prince of Wales, a couple of other family members, some of ‘his people’ he trusts who always had his back, so he doesn’t think he’s being ambushed.

Someone like Elf [Ed Lane Fox, Harry’s former private secretary] and Christopher [Lord Geidt, the late Queen’s former private secretary who advised the Sussexes]. “Both sides need to hold

their hands up and admit we didn’t get everything right, and we got a lot wrong, and we have to say to him ‘we understand the pain you’ve been through’. The King can do it.”
