King Charles has reportedly conveyed his determination not to be emotionally blackmailed by Prince Harry, particularly concerning the use of his grandchildren against the Royal Family, according to sources cited by The Sun. The revelation comes amid strained relations between Prince Harry and the Royal Family, with the publication of Omid Scobie’s book, “Endgame,” contributing to the discord.
According to a report from Express News, a few weeks ago, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle indicated their willingness to accept an invitation for a Christmas gathering at Sandringham with the Royal Family. However, recent developments, including the publication of Scobie’s book, have seemingly soured these relations.
Prince Harry is currently engaged in a legal battle with the Home Office over the denial of 24-hour security following his and Meghan’s decision to step down as working royals in 2020. In a statement read on his behalf during a court hearing, Prince Harry expressed feeling “forced” to leave the UK and voiced concerns about the safety of bringing his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, to the country.
Omid Scobie’s “Endgame” further alleges that Prince Harry pleaded with his father, King Charles, asking, “don’t you want to see your grandchildren?” after the Sussexes were asked to vacate Frogmore Cottage.
A source close to the King asserted that he will not be emotionally manipulated by his son and remains unfazed by the contents of the book. Despite the legal battles and public disputes, the King is described as being full of energy.
Frogmore Cottage, initially given to Prince Harry and Meghan by Queen Elizabeth, became the center of attention after the publication of Prince Harry’s memoir, “Spare.” The couple was subsequently asked to leave, and any future stays at royal properties now require a 28-day notice, with security assessments conducted due to potential threats.
Prince Harry’s legal action against the Home Office focuses on the removal of security protection that he and Meghan were entitled to as working royals. In a statement, Prince Harry expressed sadness over being compelled to step back from his royal role in 2020, emphasizing the importance of maintaining safety for his family when on UK soil.
While King Charles is reportedly eager to spend time with his grandchildren, the possibility of a Christmas reunion remains uncertain. The complexities surrounding security, family dynamics, and legal battles continue to be at the forefront of the ongoing saga between Prince Harry and the Royal Family.
