The rift inside the British royal family looks set to widen again. A fresh insider claim suggests that Prince William has no plans to make peace with his younger brother, Prince Harry, and is said to be deeply angry over a new family storm that has landed on the doorstep of the monarchy.
At the center of the drama is Earl Spencer, the brother of the late Princess Diana. He has just published a book titled Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, which takes a close look at the difficult marriage between King Charles and Diana. It is still unclear whether Prince Harry knew what the book contained before it reached the shelves. Even so, William is reportedly treating the whole episode as a serious act of betrayal.
A source speaking to Heat World claims William is convinced that the shock and stress of the situation are weighing heavily on his father's health. The same insider says he has decided that neither Harry nor his uncle will be forgiven for putting the King through it.
According to the tipster, what bothers the Prince of Wales most is that the palace was taken completely by surprise, while Harry may have known more than he let on. The source describes the situation as calculated and cold, suggesting that the brother and uncle could be playing a game that reflects badly on the monarchy while adding to the King's anxiety.
The timing, the insider adds, could hardly be worse. King Charles has already endured a long list of pressures, including the ongoing controversy surrounding Prince Andrew, criticism of the family from his own son in print, and his continuing cancer treatment. Now the family history involving his late former wife is being brought back into public view by her own brother, which the source calls the King's worst nightmare.
Please note: these comments come from an unnamed insider quoted by a magazine. Buckingham Palace has not confirmed them, so they should be read as unverified claims.
