Prince William asked not to walk with Harry at Philip's funeral
The English press reports the extreme coldness with which Meghan Markle's husband has been received by the royal family.
The Windsors and their fights continue to be the talk of the world, especially with the confrontation of the children of Diana of Wales.
At first it was said that Queen Elizabeth ordered William, Duke of Cambridge, and Harry, Duke of Sussex, not to walk together during the procession that followed her grandfather Philip's coffin at last Saturday's funeral.
However, sources close to the princes assured the Mail on Sunday that it was William, Duke of Cambridge and the eldest of the brothers, who requested that his cousin Peter Phillips be in their midst, as indeed it happened.
The source assured that the coldness with which the dukes treated each other during the courtship is only part of the apathy with which Harry has been treated by his relatives on his return to the United Kingdom after the scandalous interview that he and his wife, Meghan Markle , they granted Oprah Winfrey in early March.
In it they set out the reasons for their resignation as acting members of the queen's family. They assured, for example, that one of the relatives committed the indelicacy of asking them about the skin color of his son Archie, when Meghan was pregnant with him.
They also hinted that belonging to the royal family is like living in a prison and that no one showed interest in the delicate emotional situation of Meghan, who she thought about suicide in the face of the hell that she claims to have lived through.
The interview aired when Prince Philip was fighting for his life, a victim of upheavals that ended with his regrettable death.
Going forward with the program in the face of this situation earned Harry and Meghan the qualification of indolent. For all this, the return of the prince to England has cost him a great slight, according to the informant.
His uncles Anne and Edward, Earl of Wessex, as well as the latter's wife, Sophie, even refused him the greeting, the Mail reported.
The source pointed out that what the Windsors are most interested in now is protecting Queen Elizabeth, who has lost her inseparable companion for 73 years of marriage.
“There is very little sympathy for Harry after what he and Meghan said in the Oprah interview. (The Windsors) are very upset, ”stressed the infident.
However, there was one exception and it was Prince Andrew, Duke of York and Harry's uncle.
The chroniclers attribute it to the fact that he knows what it is to be the “plague” of the family and is also living his lowest hours.
Andrés is the queen's other headache, due to his relationship with the late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Specifically, he has never shown that he had nothing to do with the sexual abuse committed by the millionaire, who was about to be convicted of those crimes when he died, under strange circumstances, in New York in 2019.
The shadow of doubt weighs on Andrés, because one of Epstein's victims, Virginia Roberts, assures that he forced her to sleep with the queen's son when she was a minor.
Finally, Isabel withdrew him from his functions as a family member, as well as from his military distinctions and other privileges.
According to the Mail source, "Andres knows firsthand how it feels to be an outsider in his own family, which Harry is now largely as well."
The chroniclers also observed how, just before entering St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle, where the burial took place, William strode past his brother, as if he wanted to avoid all interaction with Harry.
In the act, they sat widely separated, as also dictated by the isolation rules imposed by the pandemic.
There was not the slightest hint of eye contact between them, noted the chroniclers who covered the event.
The courtiers, the Mail also said, experienced great tension over the behavior of the brothers in the reunion, an expectation that also disturbed the British and all those interested in the monarchy.
Ultimately, the brothers got together at the end of the service and walked together the road to the castle, accompanied by Kate, William's wife, whom everyone describes as a peacemaker or mediator in the long conflict of the once united children of the deceased. Lady Di.
The fight took place because William, third in line to the throne, did not give his approval to Meghan Markle, who did not attend the funeral, due to her pregnancy.
