Prince William made a controversial decision, which was considered an unpopular bet then, and now his father is grateful for it.
When Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, decided to start writing a new chapter of their lives, Prince William took a firm stance from day one.
He knew that the decision to retire from their royal duties and relocate to the United States would be troublesome for the monarchy, a weighty consequence of their actions.
Unfortunately, it did not take Prince Harry and Markle very long to prove that the heir was right.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made shocking revelations and accusations in interviews, which caused a stir in the Royal Family.
Damaging secrets were exposed in a book and Netflix series for massive checks. Throughout it all, King Charles III kept the door open, hoping and praying that time and patience would allow him to reconcile with his son and spend time with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
When His Majesty discovered he was battling cancer at the age of 75, it became urgent to reunite with his youngest child, a personal sacrifice he was willing to make.
However, Prince William stood his ground and blocked his father from reuniting with Prince Harry. The heir to the throne believes there is no room for a redo after the pain and mental discomfort that Prince Harry and Markle caused him and his wife, Kate Middleton.
The Daily Beast reports: “The Daily Beast has been told that Charles would like to reconcile with Harry but is being blocked from bringing him back into the family by William, who is implacably opposed to any such move. The elder son believes Harry’s betrayal of the family in his books and interviews, in which he accused a member of the family, later revealed to be Kate, of racism, has put him beyond the pale. William’s consent is needed because Charles, who is sick with cancer, feels he cannot bequeath his heir a settlement with Harry that William cannot live with.”
As Meghan Markle continuously makes it impossible for King Charles to spend time with his grandchildren because of her mental well-being and security issues, King Charles has decided to cut ties with the California royals gradually.
Accepting Queen Camilla‘s suggestion, King Charles has enacted a no-contact rule against Prince Harry and Markle to protect his peace of mind as he battles a serious illness.
What initially seemed problematic has turned out to be a positive development for the Royal Family.
