The king-in-waiting has not been attending family dinners and private audiences when Prince Harry is there, it sensationally emerged.
The king is even frightened that arguments between his squabbling offspring could become big public scandals and make the royal rivalries worse, sources say. This unfortunate action has left the family in shambles and fans despairing.
Insiders whisper that Charles, unwell from his health battles, wants peace but dreads that Harry’s anger will erupt. “Charles loves his son but is fed up with buckling to the couple,” one person at the palace said. “One wrong word, and this will play on the news.”
To avoid confrontations, the king has skipped several gatherings, such as a recent birthday dinner. This follows Harry’s audacious demands for control regarding his work and Meghan’s Hollywood guest drama at a palace event.
The drama is afoot, what with #CharlesAvoidsHarry trending on social media. Some fans are feeling sorry for Charles, with one comment reading, “He’s sick and just wants quiet!” Others fault Harry by saying, “Harry’s pushing too hard—give Dad a break!”
The drama mounts with other royal problems, including Camilla’s assertion about Harry’s parentage and Kate’s distress over Charlotte’s charity ban. Meghan, Harry’s wife, is mad too, feeling the family is closing them out.
Prince William and Queen Kate are trying to calm things down, but they’re being dragged into the middle. William, the future king, is sticking by his dad, while Harry would like to return, but on his own terms.
Not a peep from Buckingham Palace, and yet some people believe that Charles’s boycott could cause the family division to explode.
Will Charles and Harry ever be able to sit down together without scrapping? With health concerns and scandals mounting, the royal family is in a tough spot. Fans long for the peace, but this elision seems a wistful indicator that there will not be relief anytime soon.
