"With the children finishing school for summer soon, Harry is in a state of panic. He’s scared he’s pushed Meghan too far this time, and if he chooses to go to the UK, he’s facing the reality of spending the summer cut off from his wife and his children, and with relations still difficult with the rest of his family."
