Prince Harry 'realises he's frozen out' and 'isn't thrilled' about new life in US

A royal expert has described Prince Harry as "like a startled rabbit caught in the headlights" as he adjusts to life in the US.

The Duke of Sussex's attendance at Prince Philip's funeral last month marked his first return to the UK since the tell-all Oprah Winfrey interview he gave alongside his wife Meghan Markle.

In the interview, Harry and Meghan explosively accused the family of racism and insensitivity to Meghan’s mental health issues.

Meghan, who is pregnant and due to give birth next month, did not return to the UK for the funeral on medical grounds.

Harry arrived in London for the funeral on April 17, but is said to have received a frosty reception by royal family members.

A royal expert has said the event reminded Harry of his old life as he adjusts to living in the US, The Mirror reports.

Charlie Rae, a former royal editor at The Sun, told talkRADIO: "Out in the US, Harry looks like a startled rabbit caught in the headlights."

TalkRADIO host Kevin O'Sullivan said: "We read that Harry was shocked by the frosty reception he got from some members of the Royal Family.

"Some literally turned their back on him. He was stunned by this - I'm not sure why that was a surprise to him."

He added: "It must be occurring to him how frozen out he is, how he has turned his back on his former life.

"There is suggestion that when he came back a few weeks ago, he was reminded of his old life."

He added: "He felt rather nostalgic about it and he isn't so thrilled about his new circumstances as he wants you to believe."

Mr Rae added he doesn't believe Charles and William "will be extending their open arms again to Harry".
