Why Prince Harry's Relationship With Cressida Bonas Didn't Work Out

Prince Harry’s cousin Princess Eugenie introduced him to Cressida Bonas, according to the Daily Mail, and the fledgling couple was first spotted getting cozy at a London nightclub, the Salon at Embassy Mayfair, in July 2012. But just two years later, their fairytale romance ended.

Sources told The Telegraph that a number of issues contributed to the couple’s split. For one thing, Bonas was reportedly uncomfortable with all the attention she was getting and she also felt like she was being pressured to wed Harry when she wasn’t ready to make that level of commitment. There was also the matter of potentially giving up her acting career, which she did not want to do. And what of her identity as an entity separate from the royal family? In a 2020 interview with ES magazine, she made some rare remarks about Harry and seemed to confirm that she would much rather be known for her work on the screen and stage than for who she’s married to. “The hurdles and barriers for me are when I’m trying to do my work and people want to talk about him,” she said. “I work very hard and love what I do — I just want to continue.”

Royal expert Kate Nicholl claimed that there was at least one other issue. “I interviewed quite a lot of Cressida’s friends and family members. I was told she didn’t love him enough,” she told Newsweek.
