Prince William has seemingly pulled back father King Charles to stand in a united front against lone royal, Prince Harry.
The Duke of Sussex, who left his royal position in 2020 with wife Meghan Markle, is now being frozen out despite his attempts to reconcile, per royal expert Christopher Andersen.
Following the meeting of Harry and Charles shortly after the cancer diagnosis of the King, hopes for a father-son reconciliation were on the rise. However, the King refused to meet his youngest son during his latest London visit.
“They have chosen to ignore Harry, to freeze him out, and to not let him get under their skin when they are facing so many critical challenges,” Andersen told Fox News Digital.
“In a way, I think that is even sadder. It’s been said that hate isn’t the opposite of love – indifference is.”
The royal expert further explained that Harry and Meghan’s ties to Africa may have been one of the reasons but not the only one.
“The King and Prince William are not surprised when Harry makes trips abroad, even when Meghan accompanies him,” Andersen said.
“And I don’t get the sense they begrudge Harry [for] his ties to Africa. Charles and William have crossed Harry off their list for a plethora of reasons, but making a brief trip with one reporter and one photographer in tow isn’t one of them.”
