Prince Harry today dramatically declared that he and Meghan will never move back to the UK and become working members of the Royal Family - just hours after using another bombshell US interview to rubbish suggestions that the couple give up their official titles.
Speaking on Good Morning America, the Duke of Sussex said: 'I don't think it's ever going to be possible, I don't think that even if there was an agreement or an arrangement between me and my family, there's that third party that's going to do everything they can to make sure that that isn't possible, not stopping us from going back but making it unsurvivable.'
He continued: 'Because that's essentially breaking the relationship between us. There was something in the future where, you know, we can continue to support the Commonwealth that of course is on the table.'
In a separate interview with the CBS network, the duke swerved a question by Anderson Cooper who asked him why, given his clear antipathy to the monarchy, do he and Meghan not just renounce their titles as Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
'And what difference would that make?' was his only answer.
It comes as Harry's popularity among the British public slumps to an all-time low, with a new YouGov survey finding that the Duke's net favourability now sits at a staggering -38. Almost two-thirds of those polled admitted they hold a negative view of the prince, while his support among the 18-24 age group has also fallen to its lowest ever score.
