Senior members within the Firm are aware that looking weak and allowing the Sussexes back into the fold would be damaging, an insider has claimed.
The source said: "Senior royals are more than aware that Harry and Meghan’s popularity has nose-dived since Megxit and are concerned that letting them back into the fold could prove catastrophic for the family.
"They don’t want to be part of being booed at public events and they certainly don’t want to be seen as weak for allowing them back in after everything they’ve done."
It comes as King Charles and Kate, Princess of Wales were named, in the Dutch version of Omid Scobie's Endgame, as the royals who allegedly had "concerns" about how dark Prince Archie's skin colour would be when he was born.

Scobie, a royal author with links to sources close to Meghan and Harry, has denied leaking the names and said no version of Endgame contained the names of the accused royals.
Charles and Kate's names appeared in the Dutch version of Endgame after a draft version of the book was published in the Netherlands rather than the final version which did not include the names, according to the Times.
The Duchess of Sussex claimed during her 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey that members of the Royal Family had "concerns" about how dark her son's skin colour would be when he was born, but she chose not to name them.
Sources close to Meghan have insisted no one on her team briefed Scobie on the names of the royals who allegedly made the remarks.
