Kate Middleton is pushing for peace in the Royal Family after four years of tumult.
The Princess of Wales played a key role in getting King Charles III and Prince William to acknowledge the birthday of The Duke of Sussex last month.
Her outreach worked so well that many observers thought that the moment would mark the beginning of a new era in the British monarchy. A genuine reconciliation seemed possible between Prince Harry and his relatives.
However, opinions are evolving after the rebellious royal’s latest trip to England. He did some charity work but has not been able to see his father.
The Sovereign seems to be back where it all began: he is not ready to cede an inch to his youngest son. Prince Harry is in London, while his father is staying at Balmoral in Scotland.
According to reports, there will be no invitation for the son to join him. Moreover, if The King still has a soft side for his son, his wife, Queen Camilla, is singing a different tune.
She wants an eventual reconciliation to be a very slow process. She has the ear of The Monarch. Queen Camilla is also using Prince William’s own reticence for peace to her advantage.
An insider told The Express: “She has been the principal voice urging Charles to slow down and take things easy. The last thing she wants him to do is to get stressed out over a meeting with Harry.”
Unfortunately for Prince Harry, royal fans are siding with Queen Camilla. They believe that he has crossed many lines with the memoir Spare and the many interviews where he and Meghan Markle went after the Royal Family.
For some supporters, there is no turning back, no matter how difficult the situation might be. Critics think the Sussexes are really struggling to land a true hit and want to use their royal connection to their advantage.
To illustrate their point, they wonder why Markle is not trying to make amends with her father, Thomas Markle.
Prince Harry is still trying to find a balance between his life in California and England. The Royal Family will not allow him to have his cake and eat it, either.
Some reports suggest that Prince Harry’s desire to reconnect with his roots is having a negative impact on his marriage. The power couple have decided to separate their businesses.
Markle will try to become a media personality as her husband focuses on charity. As of now, King Charles and Queen Camilla have the upper hand, and they know it.
