Though it might look like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have found a little slice of heaven in California, their friend has revealed the prince is actually « heartbroken » over « painful » drama within his family.

It’s been one year since Harry and Meghan stepped down as senior royals. Over the summer, the new parents moved to Montecito, Calif., with their 1-year-old son Archie and signed entertainment deals with Netflix and Spotify.

However, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex might not be off scot-free. Their friend, journalist Tom Bradby, spoke out about the couple’s strained relationship with the royal family in a new interview for ITV’s Love Your Weekend, which airs on Sunday, according to People.

Bradby confessed Harry, 36, is « heartbroken by the situation with his family, » which he noted « clearly isn’t ideal, » adding, « it has been a very difficult year for them all. »

He said, « The whole thing has just been incredibly painful, that is obvious to everyone. It is painful all round, painful for everyone, difficult to manage. »
