Boris Johnson's pep talk prompts Harry's departure from Britain

In January 2020, during a UK-Africa investment summit, Boris Johnson met with Prince Harry in an attempt to persuade him not to leave Britain. This meeting occurred at a time when Harry was facing significant personal challenges, including tensions with the royal family and the pressures of his marriage. Johnson's approach was reportedly lacking in sensitivity, focusing instead on Harry's value to the UK rather than offering genuine support. The palace later denied that they had asked Johnson to intervene. Despite his efforts, Harry ultimately decided to move to North America, a choice that many speculate was influenced by the difficult circumstances surrounding him. The article suggests that had Johnson been more effective in his approach, it might have changed the course of events, potentially avoiding some of the subsequent controversies surrounding the UK government. The narrative implies that Johnson's presence may have inadvertently pushed Harry further away from Britain, highlighting the irony of a prime minister's attempt to retain a royal family member leading to the opposite outcome.
