Despite the horrific accusations of harassment and racism that Harry and Meghan have leveled at the Royal Family, the King has maintained a dignified silence throughout.
Like her mother, Queen Elizabeth, she never complained, never explained. But behind closed doors, Charles must have been deeply hurt, just as any loving father would be after such public attacks.
Perhaps even more inexcusable for Charles was the fact that Harry attacked his wife Camilla, as well as William and Kate.
Yet from the Oprah interview to the docu-series to Spare’s memoir, Charles the father never took back the olive branch.
Insiders say the King has always insisted that although Harry and Megan are no longer royals, they are family and therefore welcome at any family event, including the Coronation.
Even in America, they’re sick of the Sussexes. A new Newsweek poll shows Harry’s approval rating has fallen 48 percent since December, and Meghan’s 40 percent.
Like her mother, Queen Elizabeth, she never complained, never explained. But behind closed doors, Charles must have been deeply hurt, just as any loving father would be after such public attacks.
But, as the Mail reveals today, we now know that Harry wants a private apology from his father and brother before he even considers attending. It is an outrageous demand. But a completely predictable one.
