The relationship between Prince Harry and the rest of the royals remains a rocky one.\n

It all started when he and Meghan Markle made the decision to leave Britain behind and settle in California. This decision, however, didn\u2019t only trigger a change in the number of working royals, but it also affected Harry\u2019s relationship with his niece and nephews.\n

When Prince George was born, Harry felt like the happiest uncle on Earth. In his all-tell memoir\u00a0Spare,\u00a0he wrote that he looked forward to spending quality time with his nephew, but that wasn\u2019t what happened. According to him, he wasn\u2019t incited over at his brother\u2019s place as often as he wished to, but believed William and Kate were busy building their own family so he didn\u2019t overstep with William and Kate.\n

Despite this, Harry was able to create and nurture a strong bond with George, and later with Charlotte.\n

However, when he stepped down from his royal duties and moved to the States, the youngest of his brother\u2019s children, Louis, was still a toddler, so Harry didn\u2019t have much time to connect to him. What\u2019s most, he\u2019s only seen Louis a handful of times since he left his homeland.\n

When the little Prince was christened, Harry went to great lengths to gift him a very special present that represented a continuation of a sweet tradition his late mother Diana started when Harry himself was a child. He bought Louis the first edition of\u00a0Winnie-the-Pooh,\u00a0hoping to build a library of first editions for Louis and his siblings.\n

\u201cOne of Harry\u2019s happiest childhood memories was being read a bedtime story by his mother. She loved all the old classics, and Harry had the brilliant idea of starting a little library of first editions for Louis, Charlotte, and George to enjoy as they get older,\u201d a close source told the\u00a0Daily Record.\n

Harry bought the original edition of A. A. Milne\u2019s book for around\u00a0\u00a38,000 ($10,000).\n

\u201cHe originally wanted to get Lewis Carroll\u2019s\u00a0Through The Looking Glass, which was on sale for \u00a324,000, but decided\u00a0Winnie-The-Pooh\u00a0would be more suitable for a first tome. Robinson Crusoe was William\u2019s favorite book, but Harry loved all things A.A. Milne,\u201d the source continued.\n

This was a meaningful gift, and Harry truly looked forward to building a connection with his brother\u2019s children, who he now no longer sees.\n

In his book, Harry spoke of Charlotte and Louis, fearing that they could end up being \u201cspares\u201d just like him.\n

\u201cThough William and I have talked about it once or twice, and he has made it very clear to me that his kids are not my responsibility, I still feel a responsibility knowing that out of those three children, at least one will end up like me, the spare,\u201d Harry said.\n

\u201cAnd that hurts, that worries me.\u201d\n

Harry continued: \u201cI was brought into the world in case something happened to Willy, I was summoned to provide backup, distraction, diversion and, if necessary, a spare part. Kidney, perhaps. Blood transfusion. Speck of bone marrow. This was all made explicitly clear to me from the start of life\u2019s journey and regularly reinforced thereafter.\u201d\n

The Duke was later criticized about speaking of his brother\u2019s children, with royal expert Ingrid Seward saying he should\u201d lay off Prince William\u2019s children.\u201d\n

However, it seems that William and Kate are indeed worried that Harry\u2019s words may come true so they do the best of their abilities to make Charlotte and Louis feel as special as their oldest sibling, George.\n

Speaking to the\u00a0Mirror,\u00a0royal expert Jennie Bond said she believes William and Kate would encourage both Charlotte and Louis to pursue careers outside the royal fold if they want to.\n

\u201cAnd from there they will want him to find a life that is meaningful to him as well as appropriate for the son of a future King. They will try to ensure that he feels he is living a life of value, irrespective of his place in the line of succession and that will probably involve service of some kind as they have emphasized from the start that they want their children to understand that having empathy with others is not only a kindness, but is rewarding as well,\u201d Bond stated.\n

Being their uncle, George, Charlotte, and Louis probably wonder why Harry is no longer present in their lives. Whether they know the reason why he no longer lives in Britain is unknown.\n

Royal commentator Lydia Alty\u00a0believes\u00a0the three royal children are \u2018likely asking questions\u2019 about Harry and what really happened when he left.\n

\u201cPrince Harry used to be close to his brother, Prince William. He was also very close to Prince William\u2019s wife, the Princess of Wales and their children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis,\u201d she said.\n

\u201cHarry was even close to his father, despite reports and claims from him that he wasn\u2019t. Now that the royals have all split up and, as far as we know, not talking, this will have affected George, Charlotte and Louis.\u201d\n

Lydia Alty concluded: \u201cHis nephews and niece will probably be wondering why they haven\u2019t seen their uncle and cousins.\u201d\n

We hope the royals would be able to rebuilt the bridges they have burnt over the last couple of years.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
