Before Meghan Markle, Prince Harry the struggling 'spare' was already considering a royal exit: experts

Before Meghan Markle ever walked into Prince Harry’s life, the struggling spare had wondered what his life could be like beyond palace walls. In a resurfaced interview with author Angela Levin, the Duke of Sussex spoke candidly about his desire for an "ordinary life." His thoughts were shared in Levin’s 2017 column for the U.K.’s Daily Mail as well as her 2018 book, "Harry: A Biography of a Prince." "I spent many years kicking my heels, and I didn’t want to grow up," the now-38-year-old told Levin. "I felt I wanted out but then decided to stay in and work out a role for myself." British royals expert Hilary Fordwich told Fox News Digital it’s likely Harry would have attempted to escape the pressures of being a "spare" beyond his home country whether the former American actress was in the picture or not.

'Princess Charlotte might ditch her title - but William could also change it'

The Royal Family's official titles date back centuries, with monarchs handing down honours and dukedoms for generations. While both Prince George and Prince Louis would be eligible to hold key royal titles in the future, their sister Princess Charlotte is also in line to hold one which is currently associated with the hardest working member of the Firm. As she will one day be the eldest daughter of the sovereign when Prince William succeeds, Princess Charlotte could be styled as The Princess Royal - the current title of Princess Anne.

Sia reveals autism diagnosis: “I have fully become myself”

Sia has revealed in a new interview that she has been diagnosed with autism and is on the spectrum.Speaking to Rob Cesternino and Carolyn Wiger on a recent Rob Has A Podcast episode, the singer-songwriter said she is “on the spectrum, and I’m in recovery and whatever. There’s a lot of things.”While Sia did not share explicitly when she was diagnosed, she alluded that it was a recent development over the past two years: “For 45 years, I was like, ‘I’ve got to go put my human suit on,’ and only in the last two years have I become fully, fully myself.”Carolyn Wiger, a drug counsellor and former contestant on Survivor 44, thanked Sia for being candid and open about her situation, to which the singer replied: “Being in recovery and also knowing about which kind of neurologicality you might have, or might not have, well, I think one of the greatest things is that nobody can ever know you and love you when you’re filled with secrets and living in shame.”Sia also opened up about receiving treatment for substance abuse, saying: “When we finally sit in a room full of strangers and tell them our deepest darkest most shameful secrets and everybody laughs along with us, and we don’t feel like pieces of trash for the first time, we feel seen for the first time in our lives for who we actually are and then we can start going out into the world as operators just operating as humans.”Sia came under fire in 2021 for her directorial debut with the movie Music, in which Maddie Ziegler stars as the titular nonverbal autistic teenager.
