| Prince Harry Feels ‘Rudderless’ and Doesn’t Have Friends in LA, Source Says Posted: 13 May 2020 12:43 PM PDT  Prince Harry is feeling "rudderless" as he struggles to adapt to life under lockdown in a new country where he has few friends, it has been claimed today.With just over a month having passed since Harry and Meghan fled the wilds of rural Canada for Los Angeles, where they are believed to be locked down in a luxury villa owned by their friend Tyler Perry, Harry in particular is struggling, a source has told Vanity Fair's Katie Nicholl. After recent reports that he was missing his army friends and felt homesick in L.A., a source told Vanity Fair, "He has a lot of friends in the military community in the UK and of course he misses them. This is a very strange time for us all, but I think Harry is missing having a structure to his life right now. He doesn't have friends in L.A. like Meghan and he doesn't have a job. So at the moment he's a bit rudderless, but it won't always be like this, and he knows that." Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Banned From Trading Off Sussex Royal NameThe comments broadly echo comments made by a source to The Daily Beast who admitted that Harry's life, like many other people's, had been "shaken up" by the lockdown.As a part of his exit deal from the British monarchy, Harry agreed to drop his HRH titles and give up all his military roles. The couple were also asked not to use the word "royal" in their international branding and reluctantly agreed, which meant they have been forced to mothball their Sussex Royal Instagram account.> If you love The Daily Beast's royal coverage, then we hope you'll enjoy The Royalist, an all-new members-only series for Beast Inside.

He misses the camaraderie of being in the forces."He has been telling friends that he still can't believe this has happened. He can't believe his life has been turned upside down."He was in a happy place when he was serving in the army, then he met Meghan and since then life has been great. But I don't think he foresaw things turning out quite as they did."The Telegraph added that Harry, 35, does not "blame Meghan," but can't shake a "sense that he might have been better protected if he was still in the army."Harry's team would not comment on the Telegraph's story to The Daily Beast. However, a friend told The Daily Beast that "any implications that these feelings have anything to do with the duchess are completely untrue."The friend told The Daily Beast that Harry's "military titles will always be important to him, as will the friends that he made while he served," but noted but "he left service a few years ago."Harry himself recently told a military podcast of the "gaping hole" that "hanging up" the military uniform leaves in former squaddies such as himself.It is noticeable that the charities that Harry has tried to stay involved with are the military ones. As well as recording that interview, he has recorded messages for the Invictus Games and fronted the launch of a website, HeadFIT, designed primarily with the mental health needs of the defense community in mind.Speaking on Entertainment Tonight, Katie Nicholl elaborated on her VF story, and said Prince Harry and Prince William are "back in touch" and had been chatting online."They have done video calls together, they have done a lot of family birthdays, and I think with Prince Charles not being well, that really forced the brothers to pick up the phone and get back in touch. "I think Kate and William miss Harry and Meghan to a degree, but certainly they miss Harry [being] around and part of their lives."Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

| U.S. House Democrats float $3 trillion coronavirus bill, Republicans reject it Posted: 13 May 2020 12:40 AM PDT  Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday unveiled a $3 trillion-plus coronavirus relief package with funding for states, businesses, food support and families, only to see the measure flatly rejected by Senate Republicans. The new legislation, which would more than double Congress' financial response to the crisis, includes nearly $1 trillion in long-sought assistance for state and local governments that are bearing the brunt of a pandemic that has infected 1,359,000 in the United States and killed at least 80,600. It also includes $75 billion for testing people for the novel coronavirus, direct payments of up to $6,000 per U.S. household, $10 billion in emergency grants for small business and $25 billion for the U.S. Postal Service.
