Prince Harry may go into ‘self-destruct mode’ after Meghan’s legal victory

Prince Harry’s confidence may be taking a hit following Meghan Markle’s legal victory against her stepsister in a defamation case.

The Duke of Sussex himself recently lost his security case against the UK Home Office. Harry had argued that he would be provided with state security during his visits to the UK due to his concerns for the safety of himself and his family.

However, he lost the case and decided to appeal again. If the Duke loses again, he will be forced to pay millions in his own and the Home Office’s legal costs.

Now, relationship expert Kate Nicholl says Harry may feel ‘jealous’ of his wife, having recently lost: ‘When one partner has a triumph and the other feels a bit defeated, they can feel jealous – it’s natural. One blow, they may start to move away from their partner, shrink a little. It can be harder for them to connect with as they can go into a self-critical or self-destructive state.”

“For strong couples they will share each other’s successes and failures, acknowledging the roller coaster of life. But if they can’t get over it – maybe there’s a bigger problem at play,” he added.

Kate noted that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex face external pressures and scrutiny, which makes them more difficult than a normal couple.

He said: “For Meghan and Harry, it’s not just a relationship, but a relationship at the center of outside pressure and commentary. In this situation, we need to see a united front, with empathy and love in the background to help them heal. the injured and give them the confidence to continue to thrive. That’s what we look for.”
