Prince Harry recently returned to the U.K. for a three-day trip to celebrate the anniversary of the Invictus Games he founded 10 years ago. There was a special service held at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London to commemorate the anniversary of the Games. Some of Princess Diana’s siblings were in attendance but no one from the royal family attended the ceremony even though they were reportedly invited.
No one expected Harry’s brother, Prince William, or his sister-in-law, who is undergoing treatment for cancer to attend. But not seeing any royals especially one of the duke’s favorite relatives show up to support him has angered some Sussex fans. Here’s who that is and what’s being said about them.

Prince Harry and King Charles did not see one another while the Duke of Sussex was in town to celebrate the anniversary of the Invictus Games he founded in 2014.
There have been conflicting reports from the prince’s camp as well as the Palace about the reason the two did not meet. According to friends of Harry, he wanted to see his father but was rejected and told the monarch was too busy to make time for him. However, Palace sources refute that and said Harry never made a request to see the king while he was in the U.K. The Palace also insisted that the duke did not invite any royal family members to the Invictus Games ceremony as it’s been reported.

There was speculation leading up to Prince Harry‘s U.K. visit about whether King Charles would meet with the Duke of Sussex while he was in town to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. After Harry touched down in London though, it was reported that no such meeting would take place.
Now, someone who used to work for the monarch and knows Harry well is explaining why it’s “odd” that they didn’t see each other.
What King Charles’ ex-aide said about King Charles not making time to see Prince Harry
Grant Harrold was King Charles’ butler from 2004 to 2011. During his time working for the monarch his duties also included that of valet, house manager, and driver. He also looked after Prince William and Prince Harry whenever they stayed at Highgrove House.

King Charles experienced a major change in his life when he transitioned to the monarch after his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, died. Another person who went through a transition as well is Queen Camilla (formerly Camilla Parker Bowles). While the king had prepared most of his life for his role, the role queen isn’t one Camilla was born into.
She willingly accepted that but it was anyone’s guess if the general public would ever accept her. Here’s what someone who used to work for Charles and Camilla says he’s noticed since their coronation.

Just before Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, stepped down from their royal duties, there were rumblings that all was not well between the Duke of Sussex and his brother, Prince William. After the Sussexes stepped down, things seemed to go from bad to worse. And at some point, Harry decided to air out dirty laundry during televised interviews, a Netflix documentary, and in print via his memoir Spare.
For anyone waiting to hear William’s side of things, don’t hold your breath. The Prince of Wales has stayed in line with the family’s “never complain, never explain” policy and hasn’t responded to any of his sibling’s claims.

More than three decades after they first met, King Charles and Queen Camilla (formerly Camilla Parker Bowles) tied the knot.
On April 9, 2005, the pair said “I do” at Windsor Guildhall. Because it was the second marriage for both parties, they had a civil ceremony which was followed by a service of prayer and dedication. Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, were only at the religious blessing. The latter ceremony was attended by 800 guests. Crowds lined the streets near the chapel to see the pair after the blessing. The celebration then moved to Windsor Castle where Queen Elizabeth hosted a reception.
Some have wondered what Charles and Camilla do on their wedding anniversary each year. Do they mark the occasion with some special plans? Do they give each other fancy gifts? Or is it just another day full of public engagements and royal duties for them? Well now someone...

Following abdominal surgery in mid-January, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) made a heartbreaking announcement revealing her cancer diagnosis and that she has started “preventative chemotherapy.”
The news comes just weeks after the princess’s father-in-law, King Charles, was also diagnosed with cancer and began treatment as well. This has left other senior royals like Prince William stretched pretty thin having to do extra engagements in his wife and dad’s absence. Now, a psychic is revealing what the Prince of Wales will be doing in the coming weeks and months to avoid becoming overworked.

Former President Donald Trump suggested that Prince Harry might be deported from the United States due to his history of drug use.
In February, Harry, when asked on Good Morning America if he would ever consider becoming an American citizen, said that he had “considered it.”
“I have my own family,” he stated. “As we all do. So, my family and my life in California are as it is. I’ve got other trips planned that would take me through or back to the U.K., so I’ll stop and see my family as much as I can.”
During an interview with the U.K.’s Daily Express, Trump declared that he “wouldn’t protect” the prince since he “betrayed the queen,” an action which the former president considered “unforgivable.”

It’s no secret that members of the royal family live a very privileged lifestyle. They have cooks, drivers, assistants, and housekeepers at their disposal and some of those staffers have gotten pretty weird requests from their bosses in the past.

No matter how socially successful you are, it is deeply distressing to think that your father and your spouse are simultaneously fighting cancer. Prince William is under unfathomable pressure, especially when you consider that the world is watching him and that he and the Princess of Wales are raising three children.
Going even further, despite his optimism following Kate Middleton’s cancer diagnosis, he surely might have remembered the triggers that led to the death of his own mother (Princess Diana) when he was only 15 years old.

Britain’s royal family is in unfamiliar territory and something needs to change quickly.
Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II in 2022, her oldest son King Charles became the new head of the Firm and put into place his “slimmed-down monarchy,” meaning they’re are fewer working royals to help out with the family’s daily duties and engagements. What the king didn’t count on was both him and his daughter-in-law the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) having to undergo medical procedures and receiving treatment for cancer, which has sidelined them for months.
This has left the remaining working royals stretched pretty thin leaving some like Princess Anne to do multiple engagements a day. And aside from 41-year-old Prince William and 59-year-old Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh (formerly the Countess of Wessex), every other working royal is over the age of 60 with most deep into their 70s and 80s.

A former longtime butler to King Charles reveals the monarch is experiencing a “nightmare behind closed doors.” A slimmed-down monarchy and two health complications that sidelined the king and Kate Middleton gave the front-line royals an unprecedented new look.

Grant Harrold worked for King Charles for about seven years when he was the Prince of Wales. He was employed by Kensington Palace from 2004 through 2011.
“Behind closed doors, it’s all a bit of a muddle,” Harrold told The New York Post of the alleged turmoil behind the scenes at Kensington Palace. “Obviously, the king is trying to get better; that’s going to be the big focus.”
“I think Charles will find it very frustrating that he’s not able to work as much. I can believe that as I know what he’s like, he’s a workaholic,” he continued. “I...

The royal family has been stretched pretty thin over the past few months. With the announcements that both King Charles and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) have cancer and are receiving treatment, the new slimmed-down monarchy has been put to the test and has seen some royals completing multiple engagements a day just to keep things moving.
But recently one family member, who many weren’t expecting to take on any royal duties, showed up at a charity event in London leaving many to wonder if they were willing to help out full-time. However, someone who used to work for King Charles says that won’t happen because signing on for royal duties “takes up your whole life.”

After it was announced that the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) needed a lengthy recovery following abdominal surgery and King Charles would have to scale back his duties while undergoing cancer treatment, the remain working royals have been stretched thin in the family’s new slimmed-down monarchy.
There have been some reports that Prince Harry would be willing to come back in his father and sister-in-law’s absence to help shoulder some of the responsibilities. While most royal watchers have dismissed that idea altogether, one person who used to work for the family thinks the Duke of Sussex should be asked to come back now as the monarchy is facing a “crisis.”

An announcement was made in January that the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) underwent abdominal surgery and remained in the hospital for nearly two weeks. It was then reported that following her hospital stay, Prince William‘s wife would need a lengthy recovery at home as all her engagements were canceled through March.
Speculation and wild rumors have spread online about why needs so much time out of the public eye, but the Palace has insisted they are done commenting on her health. But while the royals may be refraining from commenting more, one of the princess’s family members is not. Kate’s uncle Gary Goldsmith, who’s her mother Carole Middleton’s younger brother, did so during his appearance as a contestant on the U.K.’s Celebrity Big Brother.

Prince William’s spokesperson told reporters, “His focus is on work and not on social media.”
The discussion follows an incident where Middleton’s name appeared on the official U.K. Army website as the lead for the annual review of soldiers at the Horse Guards Parade in London on June 8. This announcement came after her abdominal surgery in January.
However, Kensington Palace stated that the army had not consulted them about Middleton’s involvement. Details about Middleton’s surgery remain private, with the palace only confirming its success and projecting a recovery period of 10 to 14 days in the hospital, followed by a return home. The statement also indicated that Middleton would likely refrain from public duties until after Easter emphasizing her desire for privacy and maintaining normality for her children.

Royal fans were surprised by the recent announcement from Kensington Palace that the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) had abdominal surgery and would be hospitalized for up to two weeks following the procedure.
Although the Palace said the surgery was a success, the news about why the princess needs such a lengthy hospital stay has left some scratching their heads and others “worrying” and speculating about her health.
But now someone who used to work for the royal family is reassuring everyone that the princess has always taken great care of herself, which means she should be back to work after she’s fully recovered and gets her strength because she “needs to be fit and healthy to do her job.”

Harry and Meghan did attend Charles’ 70th birthday party back in 2018, but it doesn’t look like the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will make it to this one. And one royal insider says Charles will be “missing” his younger son and his wife.

From the day he was born King Charles‘ path was crystal clear. It was already carved out for him that he would eventually succeed his mother to become Britain’s monarch. But because he didn’t get to choose when that day would come, he spent the majority of his life preparing for when it happened.
Queen Elizabeth II’s reign ended up lasting more than seven decades, and therefore her oldest son became the longest-serving heir apparent in history waiting for the top job. But if that wasn’t his destiny, what career would he choose? His former staffer is revealing what job Charles told him he would be “happy” to have if he wasn’t going to be king.

We’ve seen the number of working royals decrease over the last few years. Following Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step down, Prince Andrew resigned from his duties due to criticism about his association with Jeffrey Epstein. And the late Queen Elizabeth‘s cousins are now in their late 70s and 80s and can’t complete too many outings on behalf of the royal family anymore.
But there is still plenty of work and duties the monarchy needs to carry out, and King Charles’ former aide believes there is a plan in place for other members of the Firm to step up. However, there’s one royal who isn’t going to follow that plan because it’s “not her thing.”
The king’s former butler says we won’t see this royal doing any engagements Prince William, Kate Middleton, Sophie, and Zara and Mike Tindall take...
