A royal expert has revealed how Prince Harry “smashed” the Royal Family’s circle of trust, putting King Charles in a “difficult position” over his upcoming return to the United Kingdom.
Sources have revealed Charles felt “forced” into meeting Harry the last time they spent time together, at Clarence House in September last year.
The Duke of Sussex’s willingness to open up in interviews and in his memoir Spare has led to the monarch feeing wary about his son’s impending visit.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be visiting the UK with their children Prince Archie, seven, and Princess Lilibet, five, between July 6 and July 10 in a rare return trip as a family.
“(Charles is) not a bad man. He’s not an uncaring man. He loves his son, but his son has put him in a very, very difficult position,” Rebecca English, royal editor at the Daily Mail, told the publication’s Palace Confidential podcast.
“He has betrayed a lot of family intimacies. I don’t want to use the word ‘secrets’, but it’s certainly intimacies.”
“There’s a very small circle of people (the Royal Family) can trust and once you’re in that circle of trust you remain in (it) and Harry has smashed that with a hammer,” Ms English added.
In Harry’s infamous memoir, Spare, he landed several attacks on his family.
He alleged Charles did not hug him when Princess Diana died and branded Queen Camilla a “villain”, “dangerous” and a “wicked stepmother”.
Elsewhere in the book, he claimed there was a rift between Meghan Markle and Princess Catherine, and said his brother Prince William had once knocked him to the floor.
Harry, Meghan and their two children will be embarking on the UK trip to attend the One Year To Go Invictus events in Birmingham.
They have also reportedly been invited to stay at Buckingham Palace by Charles.
The trip will be the first time they have returned to the UK as a family in almost four years, however, there are three members of the royal family who are not happy with the visit.
Camilla, William and Catherine have reportedly been left “raging” over Harry and Meghan’s upcoming transatlantic trip.
“Camilla, William and Catherine will show dignity and grace if a meeting is arranged I’m sure – as they always do – but deep down they must be raging,” The Express reports.
