Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith predicts Prince Harry will return to UK and royal family

Kate Middleton’s uncle has predicted Harry will return to the UK and the royal family in a series of fiery comments made about the Prince and his wife Meghan Markle.

Speaking to Sharon Osbourne on the reality show on Tuesday, the 58-year-old said of Harry: “I think it’s really sad. At some point, I think he’s going to come back and be part of the gang – he might need to. I think we’re a very forgiving nation, I think everyone would give him a chance.”

Mr Goldsmith, who owns a recruitment business, and Ms Osbourne are among the 13 celebrities who entered the house live on ITV1 as the 23rd series of the show started on Monday night.

He admitted to being known as the royal family’s “buncle” – or “bad uncle” – before he made a number of revelations as well as some critical remarks about the Duchess of Sussex.

He said: “I have a feeling that Harry was really, really loved. When they were a threesome – so Kate, William and Harry – they looked really comfortable together.

“Then suddenly there’s an extra dynamic that comes in, puts a stick in the spokes, and creates so much drama that I don’t genuinely think was there – and rewrote the history and saying how unhappy he was. And I just don’t think that’s fair.
