It will be a hot and interesting summer for King Charles III and the rest of the Royal Family. His Majesty and Queen Camilla plan to spend their first holiday in Scotland without Queen Elizabeth II.
King Charles will be at Balmoral Castle for several weeks, and he is expected to send out invitations to his royal relatives and close friends to come to spend time with him.
Not many will be surprised to learn that the Sovereign will have Prince William and Kate Middleton in Scotland with him.
King Charles wants to spend time and bond with his grandchildren, Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
This year, King Charles has decided to have his disgraced brother, Prince Andrew, and his ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York, at the family holiday retreat.
In an interview with Express, royal expert correspondent Richard Palmer revealed why King Charles’s brother and sister-in-law will be traveling to Balmoral: “I think that Andrew and Fergie will have been or will be invited up to Balmoral.”
He further explained: “They were both invited up to Sandringham at Christmas, so I think it makes sense for them to be invited up there when the family gets together. Whether she’ll be up to going up there, I don’t know.”
The news of Prince Andrew and his former spouse traveling to Scotland for the annual holiday has many royal reporters wondering if Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, along with their young children, will be invited to Scotland.
It would be a great opportunity for King Charles to finally create some memories with his American-British grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
King Charles can also use the invitation to call Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s bluff. Prince Harry and Meghan have told their close friends and the media that they have more or less taken a vow of silence.
The Montecito couple has promised to stop selling the Royal Family’s dirty secrets.
A source close to the couple told The Independent: “That period of their lives is over as there is nothing left to say; the Netflix and memoir period was the couple’s era of visibility, and they hoped 2023 would be their year of reconciliation with the Royal Family.”
So King Charles could invite the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to the family gathering to find out if they have truly turned a new leaf.
If the power couple is asked to spend time with His Majesty, will they be able to remain silent, or will they run to spill the tea in an interview or another Netflix series?
King Charles can only find out if the pair truly wants to stop with the revelations and reconcile by inviting them to his castle.
