CHEER up Harry it might never happen . . . or maybe it already has.
I think our once favourite royal is bored to bits, fed up of this endless woke pantomime he now finds himself starring in.

How else to explain his glum-looking expression during yet another tedious tour with his publicity hungry wife?
Even with the red carpet rolled out for him during his faux-royal tour to South America, the Duke of Sussex often struggled to raise a smile.
While his wife, Meghan, got into the salsa spirit with an almost permanent grin, the exiled Royal stood downcast by her side.
Looking at the photos from the couple’s four-day trip to Colombia, it appears to me that Harry is a very unhappy man.
They were there at the invitation of the country’s vice president, Francia Marquez.
Colombia is a fabulous country and I have been there with the King when he was Prince of Wales on a real royal tour hosted by the then president, Juan Manuel Santos.
The contrast could not be more obvious.
Charles appeared to me to love every second of his time in this truly exciting country in the autumn of 2014.
It was a most fantastic visit.
But when I watched Harry on TV playing the drums, he looked like he was only doing it half-heartedly.
Prince Harry is loathed for the very same reason he used to be popular – someone needs to tell him ‘that’s enough’
It seemed to me the Duke would rather have been somewhere else.
As he prepares to turn 40 next month, no wonder many people are now asking: Is Prince Harry suffering a Transatlantic mid-life crisis?
The case for this is strong.
Anyone who knows him feels he’d rather be top of the pops here with everyone loving him, as they do with William and Kate
A friend of Prince Harry’s
One close friend, who claims to still receive messages from Harry, has revealed the Prince, who used to be so happy-go-lucky, is missing Britain.
The pal told The Sunday Times: “He has ended up isolated from his family and most of his old mates.
“He’s an angry boy. Things haven’t turned out how he wanted.
“Anyone who knows him feels he’d rather be top of the pops here with everyone loving him, as they do with William and Kate.”
Certainly the boy who was the life and soul of the party is now a shadow of his former self.
We are told he rarely speaks to his old friends and even when he returns to the UK his stays are so short he doesn’t have the chance to catch up.
In June, he even missed the wedding of son Archie’s godfather, the Duke of Westminster, Hugh Grosvenor to avoid upsetting the bride and groom and William, who was there.
I think this must cut Harry deep — he loved his mates and all the hi-jinks.
He’s naturally gregarious.

He likes to be around people he likes.
That’s why he was such a good soldier — because he was also a brilliant comrade who enjoyed the company of people from the military.
In the UK he had a loyal group of friends who shared his sense of fun and also his escapades, like his ill-fated trip to Las Vegas.
I’m sure he not only misses those mates but I suspect he is bored at home in Montecito without his old pals.
All he does is spend time looking back
