Prince Harry is said to be close to his cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, but a royal commentator has claimed that his relationship with Princess Beatrice is now "effectively over".

Prince Harry's relationship with a senior royal is reportedly strained after she was seen dining with his "nemesis".

Prince Harry was thought to have maintained a strong bond with his cousins Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 36, despite stepping back from royal duties and relocating from the UK in 2020.

A family source told PEOPLE in 2023 they were "so close" and "they're still the best of friends and talk constantly". It comes as Meghan Markle was 'humiliated' by Prince Harry's 'nightmare' decision.

However, Princess Beatrice was recently photographed in Saint Tropez with Piers Morgan, according to Charlotte Griffiths, the editor-at-large at the Mail on Sunday, who has previously disclosed headline-making text messages with the Prince.

She described the sighting as "very telling" because not only have Beatrice and Eugenie maintained a low profile amid the public scrutiny surrounding their father, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, but the uncommon appearance was alongside a media figure who has consistently criticized her cousin.

Piers Morgan has launched a barrage of comments directed at Prince Harry, recently labeling him an "entitled brat" following his unsuccessful case against Associated Newspapers, which publishes the Daily Mail.

The broadcaster also stated he did not believe Harry's wife Meghan Markle after she discussed her mental health struggles and suicidal thoughts during her interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Piers' remarks generated 41,000 complaints to broadcasting regulator Ofcom and a formal complaint to ITV from Meghan, leading to his departure from Good Morning Britain shortly afterward.

He stated that his unwillingness to apologize led to his losing his position.

During an appearance on the True Royalty podcast, Ms Griffiths suggested that the Duke's relationship with Princess Beatrice would be "effectively over" following this development.

She stated: "I thought that was very telling because, of course, Piers Morgan is her cousin Prince Harry's absolute nemesis," Griffiths said. "So any friendship she has with Prince Harry is effectively over from this moment."

It comes as Prince Harry's awkward podcast moment spells bad news for Meghan.
