Prince Harry’s explosive memoir, released earlier this year, has stirred up controversy within the British Royal Family.
The Duke of Sussex bared his soul in the tell-all book, leveling a series of damning accusations against his own kin.
Recent reports suggest that King Charles has deliberately refrained from delving into the pages of his son’s revealing diary, citing its deeply hurtful nature as the primary reason for his reluctance.
Despite being published months ago, the monarch has purportedly chosen to remain ignorant of the memoir’s contents, opting instead to maintain a semblance of distance from the potentially incendiary revelations contained within.
Prince Harry’s candid narrative delves into the most intimate aspects of his life, chronicling poignant episodes such as his mother’s tragic demise and his contentious departure from the Royal Family alongside Meghan Markle.
The memoir’s release set off a firestorm of debate surrounding Harry’s level of involvement, with explosive claims ranging from allegations of physical altercations with his brother, Prince William, to revelations of desperate pleas to King Charles regarding Camilla’s marriage.
According to Rebecca English, Royal Editor at the Daily Mail, a close confidant of the royal family remarked, “Why would he read something he knew would be so painful?”
Tensions between father and son persist, as evidenced by Harry and Meghan’s decision to forego a summer retreat at Balmoral with the rest of the Royal Family.
A source cited by Ms. English described the past year as a tumultuous period for the Sussexes, marked by uncertainties surrounding their professional endeavors following the premature end of their podcasting venture with Spotify.
In the aftermath of their withdrawal from senior royal duties in 2020, relations between the couple and key members of the Royal Family, notably King Charles and Prince William, have remained strained.
Despite sporadic returns to the UK, including Prince Harry’s solitary attendance at King Charles’ coronation, any attempts at reconciliation appear futile.
Noted royal expert Sarah Hewson asserts that the rift between Harry and William shows no signs of healing, attributing the impasse to the significant damage inflicted by Harry’s disclosures.
Within the pages of his 416-page memoir, Prince Harry recounts a disturbing encounter with his brother, alleging that William resorted to physical aggression during an altercation in 2019.
The narrative further portrays William as critical of Meghan, painting her in a negative light.
Notably, Prince William has refrained from publicly addressing these serious allegations.
As the saga unfolds, the divide between the brothers deepens, with no immediate prospects for resolution on the horizon.
