With Kate Middleton undergoing a “planned” abdominal surgery and King Charles being diagnosed with cancer, all eyes are on the members of the Firm.
However, what attracted plenty of attention was Harry’s trip to Britain. Once he learned of his father’s diagnosis, Harry took a flight to his homeland.
According to the media, it was Charles himself who informed Harry of his cancer.
He and Charles were reported to have met, but that meeting was rather short because Charles was to take a helicopter trip to the royal estate of Sandringham where he takes rest between treatments, and Harry was allegedly not permitted to follow.
What exactly the father and son discussed is not known. But it is already clear that Harry’s visit didn’t set the stage for any future peace talks as many had hoped.
Prince William was said to had no intentions of meeting with his brother, and as per Radar Online, Camilla wasn’t happy with the fact Harry met Charles without the Palace’s approval.
“Her Majesty was furious Harry flew in from his ritzy California home without getting palace approval — and came with an attitude,” a source is said to have told the National Enquirer.
The same report stated that Harry asked from Camilla to leave the room because he wanted to talk to his father in private.
“I’m told Camilla was outraged,” the source went on. “She’s taken a lot of bile from Harry for years and couldn’t wait to let him have it.”
The relationship between Harry and Camilla has been a rocky one from the start. He spoke of her in the past, and she wasn’t spared in his memoir Spared either.
Harry revealed in his memoir that he and his brother had pleaded with their father not to marry Camilla.
“Despite Willy and me urging him not to, Pa was going ahead. We pumped his hand, wished him well. No hard feelings,” Harry wrote in Spare. “We recognized that he was finally going to be with the woman he loved, the woman he’d always loved.”
He even wrote that he had asked himself if Camilla would be “just as cruel to him as all the wicked stepmothers in storybooks,” adding that William “long harbored suspicions about the Other Woman.”
Previously, in the interviews he gave to the media, Harry accused his stepmother of leaking stories to the British media in an attempt to fix her own public image. Further, he said that the media portrayed her as a ‘villain’ because they believed she was to be blamed for Charles and Diana’s collapsed marriage.
“That made her dangerous because of the connections that she was forging within the British press. And there was open willingness on both sides to trade of information. And with a family built on hierarchy, and with her, on the way to being Queen Consort, there was gonna be people or bodies left in the street because of that,” Harry said.
In an interview with Good Morning America, Harry revealed that he hasn’t spoken with his father’s wife for a very long time.
“I love every member of my family, despite the differences, so when I see her, we’re perfectly pleasant with each other,” he said.
“She’s my stepmother. I don’t look at her as an evil stepmother. I see someone who married into this institution and has done everything that she can to improve her own reputation and her own image, for her own sake.”
According to royal expert Angela Levin, Camilla feels the same and she isn’t much interested in a relationship with Harry either.
“The Duchess always felt quite wary of Harry and used to see him out of the corner of her eye looking at her in a long and cold way. She found it rather unnerving. Otherwise, they got on quite well,” Levin writes in her new book Camilla: From Outcast to Queen Consort.
As of Harry’s latest visit, the source continued: “Camilla has taken it all on the chin, but using her husband’s cancer as a ‘loving son’ PR stunt was the last straw.
“After the father-son reunion, I hear she told Harry he’s a disgrace to his father, the family and the monarchy — and she left no doubt he isn’t wanted back!”
