Prince Harry’s ongoing struggle with hair loss affects his marriage to Meghan Markle, with sources claiming it has become a significant source of uncertainty for the Duke of Sussex.
According to Radar onlineHarry has struggled with pattern in male pattern for over a decade and has turned to treatments such as Finasteride and Minoxidil despite their potential side effects.
When he spoke with the publication, the Duke shared that Harry’s obsession with preserving his hair has affected his intimacy with Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex.
They described the relationship from Harry and Meghan as more “collegial” than romantic since the birth of their second child, Princess Lilibet.
“Harry is very self -conscious about his hair. He has been using a mixture of treatments for a while now,” the source said. “He knows there are potential side effects, but the truth is, it doesn’t really matter to him anymore.”
The insider also reflected that Harry joked about “not wanting to be bald” like his brother Prince William, but “now is the joke on him.”
“He has been obsessed with keeping what is left, even if the medicines are messing with his hormones,” they added.
“People close to him say he is dealing with his manhood for vanity – but at this point it is about control. His appearance is one of the few things he still feels he can cope.”
Another friend of Harry shared that an important factor contributing to his baldness is the environment as he has been “struggling to fit in and he hates being reminded that he will be aging.”
“For Harry, it feels losing his hair like losing control – and he has already lost so much,” they continued.
“They hardly touch. Harry still loves Meghan, but the sparkle is gone. Whether the medications make a difference or not, the bedroom door has been closed for a long time.”
