Canadians have a “strong connection” to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and previously supported the couple, with an expert going further to state that the Sussexes have a closer relationship with the country than Prince William and Princess Kate.

Express.co.uk exclusively spoke to the Executive Director of the Canadian Royal Heritage Trust, Garry Toffoli, who said he and many other Canadians have had strong support for the Sussexes in the past.

He said: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have maintained a closer connection to Canada than have the Prince and Princess of Wales.”

He added: “Canadians remember that the problems regarding the Sussexes began when the Palace (wrongly, I believe) prevented them from living in Canada with royal security and carrying out part-time royal duties.”

Harry and Meghan stepped back as working royals in 2020 and first relocated to Canada before eventually settling in California, US. The country was previously home to Meghan when she worked as an actress on the TV show, Suits.
