Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are trying to build new bridges with Queen Elizabeth 

A royal source said Britain's Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle were "trying to build bridges with Queen Elizabeth II" after realizing they needed the royal family.

The source told the British newspaper, “Sunday People”, saying that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are trying to repair their relationship with Queen Elizabeth, pointing out that this became clear this week, after the couple praised her, saying that “the Queen has succeeded in her duties with the Commonwealth and in protecting it, as she took responsibility for her.” Huge about that, and it is an honor for any member of the royal family to carry on the Queen's legacy.”

Meghan also admitted that she "didn't know" about the Commonwealth until she joined the royal family.

This comes after Harry criticized the United Kingdom, last month, calling on it to confront its colonial past, and highlighted the "mistakes" of its historical involvement in the countries that now make up the Commonwealth.

The source pointed out that Harry and Megan's recent statements came after they "felt that they needed the royal family more than they needed them, despite their popularity in some circles."

The royal source's comments came weeks after announcing the release of a new biography of Prince Harry and his wife, which experts said is expected to increase tension between the couple and the rest of the royal family.
