A ROYAL expert who watched Prince Harry grow up says she knows why he won't ever to return to royal life.
Harry has lived in California with his wife Meghan since they dramatically quit their jobs as working royals in 2020.
Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond said Harry would be a "great asset" for the palace.
But she said Californiabased Harry now has the "domestic bliss" he lacked as a child.
Appearing on The Sun's Royal Exclusive show, Bond said: "I can't see Harry returning, really.
"And yes I do miss him. Harry was the most popular royal a couple of years ago, wasn't he?
"Having watched him grow up and knowing him just a little bit, he was a wonderful little boy and a charming, jovial adolescent.
"At least that's what we saw. He was brilliant for the royal family, he did bring a natural common touch and relatability.
"They would have been a great asset had he stayed but I don't think he will return.
"If I did pray I would pray that he has a happy life now with all that he wanted.
"The freedom he craved, the wife he loves and the children he adores.
"The model of domestic bliss that he didn't have in his own adolescence.
"I wish him all the best."
It comes after Harry said he was unable to return with Meghan, Archie and Lilibet to the UK "because it is too dangerous".
