Prince Harry 'banished' his childhood friend Tom 'Skippy' Inskip from his inner circle because he advised the royal against marrying Meghan, according to Tatler.
The Duke of Sussex, 34, is said to have 'frozen out' members of his 'old posse', including Mr Inskip, but it was previously thought this was because he wanted to remove 'temptation' by distancing himself from a party-loving friendship group.
However, an article published in the May issue of Tatler suggests the source of the rift is a warning to Harry from Mr Inksip against marrying Meghan, 37.

Addressing the public criticism the Duchess has received, the article notes: 'Hang out with the Clooney/Beckham/Soho House set and be assailed for being too Hollywood, for forcing your hen-pecked husband to abandon his old, country-set muckers – including Tom "Skippy" Inskip, the ultra-loyal, tight-lipped Harry pal, who, it’s said, advised Harry not to marry Meghan and has paid the price: banishment.'
The article also reiterates previous reports suggesting Prince William, 36, 'advised [his brother] against rushing into marriage'.
Meanwhile the piece alleges the Duchess of Sussex has been dubbed 'Me-Gain' by some members of her own staff.
The Duchess is understood to have rubbed some courtiers up the wrong way, with insiders previously revealing she had been dubbed 'Duchess Difficult'.

It comes after several reports linking the Duchess of Sussex to the resignations of several key members of palace staff, including her personal assistant
The palace has strenuously denied similar claims and said the Tatler piece is 'patently untrue' in a comment to the Sun. MailOnline has contacted the palace for comment.
Prince Harry met Mr Inskip, a banker, at Eton and the pair were inseparable for years.
Mr Inksip was with Harry during his infamous trip to Las Vegas in 2012, when the prince was photographed naked during a game of 'strip billiards'.
Wingman Tom also partied with Harry during a trip to Croatia the previous year, when they were photographed jumping into a pool fully-clothed at a nightclub.
Harry had a key role at Tom's wedding in Jamaica in 2017, which marked one of Meghan's first appearances with the royal in public.
Meanwhile Mr Inskip attended the royal wedding with his wife last year.
However months later reports emerged suggesting Mr Inskip had been 'frozen out' of the royal's inner circle.
He and another one of Harry's friends, PR guru Astrid Harbord, were said to have been 'airbrushed out'.
Astrid, a friend of the Duchess of Cambridge, was also known to be a member of Harry's former posse, and has previously been romantically linked to the prince.
She was spotted in 2009 going back to Clarence House with royal at 3am after a night on the town.

Speaking to the Daily Express in October last year, a friend said: 'Like several others who were considered a questionable influence on Harry during his bad old bachelor days, Tom has been dropped, even though he himself now has a lovely wife, Lara.'
The source added: 'It's all part of Meghan's quiet airbrushing out of Harry's old posse. She doesn't want temptation - of any sort - being put in his way while they concentrate on starting a family.'
MailOnline's Piers Morgan has also previously reported on members of Harry's old social set being frozen out.
In February this year, he wrote of a 'sad story' involving some of Harry's former closest pals.
'It came from someone who knows the couple well and involved the lavish party they threw after the televised nuptials, for just 250 handpicked guests at Frogmore House near Windsor Castle,' he said.
'Three of Harry’s closest male friends weren’t invited. These guys aren’t just casual mates, they go back a very long way with him.
'The lack of invitation was apparently wounding enough to them.
'But their dismay at the snub was somewhat exacerbated when they saw who HAD got the Willy Wonka lucky tickets instead – a load of celebrities like the Beckhams, Elton John, James Corden, Idris Elba, Serena Williams, Priyanka Chopra, and George and Amal Clooney.'
They reportedly said at the time: ‘We’ve been ditched for people more famous than us.'
However, there's no suggestion that Mr Inskip was one of those left off the guest list for the evening do.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
