Prince Harry has shut down rumours that he is "unhappy in the US" with his latest move, according to royal fans.

The Duke of Sussex sparked a fan frenzy with his surfing moves in a new video from California.


In a video uploaded on Instagram by surfing legend Raimana Van Bastolaer, the Duke of Sussex, 40, can be seen battling the Californian waves at Kelly Slater's Surf Ranch in California.

The video was captioned: "In Tahiti, we still call you Prince Harry but at Surf Ranch, it’s my Brother. It was an honour to have you surf with me & @kellyslater @michaelanders_ at @kswaveco".

Harry's fans were delighted seeing the duke enjoying his time in California and said the video proved he would "never return" to the UK.

A royal source previously told The Sun: “Harry is increasingly feeling isolated in California, which is why he's been reaching out to old friends in the UK.”

However, one social media user wrote beneath the duke's new video: "Prince Harry surfing!!!! The UK is never getting that man back full-time!!"

Another one added: "Then they want to tell us that he is missing “the land of beans and rain”.

A third said: "Wow that was so amazing to watch! He is California living!"

A fourth royal watcher commented: "Surfing is the most Californian thing. Prince Harry is doing awesome."

The Duke of Sussex stepped down as a senior working royal and moved to the US in 2020.

He now resides in Montecito, California, with his wife Meghan Markle and their two children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.

The new video comes after reports that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were going through a "professional separation", where they would focus on individual projects.

Prince Harry flew to New York, followed by London and southern Africa to focus on his individual charity work.

Meanwhile, Meghan, 43, attended a gala in LA by herself, as well as visiting Girls Inc. of Greater Santa Barbara on a solo outing.
