Queen Camilla, stepmother to Prince Harry, reportedly holds strong resentment towards her stepson for the damaging accusations he made against her in his explosive memoir.
The insider claims that the queen is livid about the allegations and remains unforgiving, refusing to let go of the betrayal.
Harry’s Revelations in ‘Spare’
Prince Harry’s memoir, titled Spare, was released in January and immediately caused a stir. In the book, the Duke of Sussex detailed private conversations with his father, King Charles, and his brother, Prince William.
He also exposed the practice of members of the royal family leaking unfavorable information about each other to the press in exchange for positive coverage.
Camilla’s Accusations and the Fallout
Among the accusations, Prince Harry specifically singled out Camilla, blaming her for leaking private conversations to the media in an attempt to improve her public image following her controversial relationship with Charles.
The affair contributed to the dissolution of Charles’ marriage to the late Princess Diana, Harry and William’s mother.
According to Nick Bullen, co-founder of True Royalty TV, Camilla was furious about the claims made against her in the memoir.
However, rather than confront Harry and his wife Meghan directly, Camilla reportedly chose to move on from the controversy quickly.
Bullen suggests that while she may not forgive or forget, she is adept at playing the long game and maintaining composure.
Camilla’s Stoic Approach and Toughness
Bullen, who has worked closely with Camilla and produced documentaries about the British royal family, reveals that the queen has consistently followed Queen Elizabeth II’s mantra of never complaining or explaining.
He describes Camilla as matter-of-fact and resilient, emphasizing her ability to withstand challenges with strength and determination.
Hurtful Comments Towards Royal Wives
In his memoir, Prince Harry not only targeted Camilla but also made hurtful remarks about Kate Middleton, his sister-in-law and William’s wife.
Harry claimed that Kate and William encouraged his controversial decision to wear a Nazi uniform to a costume party in 2005.
He also disclosed text messages from Kate apologizing to Meghan after an emotional incident.
Bullen asserts that these comments were particularly hurtful to the royal family, as they targeted the wives who have no means to respond publicly.
He suggests that throwing accusations at family members who cannot defend themselves is deeply unfair and caused significant pain within the royal household.
Private Conversations Revealed
Bullen expresses his disapproval of Harry’s decision to divulge private conversations in the memoir, deeming it unnecessary and hurtful.
He emphasizes the importance of considering the impact on family dynamics when sharing intimate details with the world.
Despite the strained relationships, Harry is expected to attend his father’s coronation while Meghan and their children remain in California.
The couple’s departure from the UK in 2020 was fueled by allegations of racism from both the palace and the British press.
The treatment they endured prompted their relocation to the United States.
As Harry prepares for his brief visit to the UK, tensions and unresolved issues between family members continue to overshadow their interactions.
The fallout from the memoir and the strained relationships within the royal family persist, leaving the possibility of reconciliation uncertain.
