Is it about time Buckingham Palace opens its doors to Prince Harry? The man rumored to be the ultimate roadblock in Harry’s attempts to reconcile with the royals is reportedly considering retirement. It’s been ages since the Duke of Sussex parted ways with King Charles III and Prince William. So, this retirement news could be the opening Harry needs to patch things up. Who is this man in question? Dive in to get the lowdown.
Here’s Why Harry’s Comeback is Possible
If you’ve been keeping tabs on the royal drama, Prince Harry carved out a new life for himself in the US. It’s not like he never tried, but things never saw the end of the tunnel. It’s probably because of this gentleman- Clive Alderton. He’s the private secretary of his Majesty who might be hanging up his crown duties. Additionally, the Invictus Games founder has nicknamed Clive “The Wasp” in his memoir “Spare.”
The word on the street reveals that Alderton is rumored to be contemplating early retirement at just 57. Interestingly, royal expert Tina Brown believes his exit could pave the way for a much-needed royal truce. Given his substantial work with Invictus Games, she believes the US-based royal shouldn’t have been stripped of her military honors. And let’s not forget her two military tours in Afghanistan.
The royal commentator also thinks Alderton has played a pivotal role in advising Charles to keep Harry at arm’s length. Their mutual disdain blocked every possible chance of a father-son meeting. Meanwhile, Harry described Clive as “lanky, charming, arrogant, a ball of jazzy energy.” Now, Brown speculates that Clives’ early retirement could open doors for friendlier negotiations.
