According to GB News star Martin Daubney, Prince Harry's return to his home country without Meghan Markle signals a desire to establish himself."Talk about spare! Harry's become a spare part. A spare part at a wedding, a spare part at a state visit, a spare part in everything. Has he painted himself into irrelevance?" the journalist questioned. "Well, he hasn't. Because when he comes here, he becomes a focus of attention. But of course, he is spare to Meghan — or he was in her attempt to become the great television homemaker. But her series, her career, is crashing. So very cleverly, Harry has separated himself from Meghan, as she did from him, but she still needs him."

While Prince Harry hints at returning to the royal fold and Meghan Markle's Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, struggles to find viewers, Martin Daubney believes the couple is at a loss for what to do next."You've got this couple in Montecito, desperately looking for a new purpose in life," he explained. "Is Harry Meghan's spare, or are Meghan and Harry the spare to the royal family? The fact is, they are both looking for a purpose and all they can do is damage the monarchy through their activities."

Despite Prince Harry being applauded for his trip home by many, royal biographer Tom Bower thinks it put The Firm in a bad light."It's the Harry who wants to have his cake and eat it to live in California, pop over here just to remind people how important he is and at the same time undermine the royal family," the writer noted. "And really, he and Meghan Markle together have done more in the last four or five years to damage the monarchy than anyone in hundreds of years. I fear this trip has done huge damage to the royal family, because in the end he'll get his vengeance and that is very bad indeed."
