In Larcombe's view, Prince Harry's apparent desire to play a "second fiddle" to his wife stems from the fact that "Meghan is a very strong character" and "very driven." He described the Duchess as "extremely ambitious," characteristics that often lead her to "almost always inevitably outshine Harry and grab the attention from him."
The expert elaborated, "Harry is entirely in her shadow. But he's never really been at ease with the attention, he's never really enjoyed it. Whether it's deliberate or not, Meghan is definitely a magnet for attention."
Larcombe went on to suggest that this dynamic may not be entirely unintentional, noting that "we saw a huge amount of money spent on her combined outfits for Nigeria, so maybe it's not a complete accident that she steals the limelight." He characterized the couple's trip to Nigeria as "The Meghan Show," with Harry relegated to a supporting role.
The commentator's assessment paints a picture of a power imbalance within the Sussex household, with Meghan's strong personality and ambition overshadowing Harry's more reserved nature. This has led to the perception that the prince is content to play a subordinate part in his wife's spotlight.
As the Sussexes continue to navigate their public personas, the question of Harry's role and the balance of power within their relationship remains a topic of ongoing speculation and analysis among royal experts and observers.
