Prince Harry, who celebrates his 40th birthday next month, has run into trouble with his wife Meghan Markle over his upcoming plans.
The Duke of Sussex, who celebrates his big day on September 15, had some ideas about how to celebrate his milestone birthday, but Meghan thwarted them.
Prince Harry really wanted to travel to the UK and celebrate with his friends, but the former Suits actress won’t let him, according to an insider who More magazine.
“She says absolutely not,” the source said of Meghan.
“For one thing, it’s a bad image for their brand,” they explained. “They’re hoping to rub shoulders with the crème de la crème, the Hollywood and political elite, so the idea of him drinking booze with his mates in Mykonos or somewhere and acting like an idiot is just the worst idea imaginable.”
The royal expressed his sadness that he can no longer enjoy the same privileges as during his stay in Great Britain.
Furthermore, Harry is “sorry to let down his friends in the UK,” but his wife and children must come first for him and Meghan simply will not be happy if he shirks his duties to try and recreate the so-called good old days.
Harry had previously expressed concerns about security in the UK; after it was downgraded, he gave up his high-ranking royal job along with Meghan.
It remains to be seen whether Harry will opt for a quieter celebration or a private one with his friends.
