King Charles is reportedly facing an immense personal and professional challenge, with sources revealing that his son Prince Harry is “testing him to a level not even he thought possible.” This new strain comes as the monarch is already battling cancer and Harry’s ongoing legal battle with the Home Office over safety is reportedly making things even more difficult for him.
An informant close to women’s day shared details of how King Charles is coping with the situation, revealing that the conflict with his youngest son is taking its toll. “This ongoing battle with Harry is testing him to a level that not even he thought possible,” the source said, highlighting the immense pressure the King is under.
What makes matters even more complicated for King Charles is that the lawsuit regarding Harry’s safety has left him in a difficult position. “The ongoing court battle over Harry’s safety has completely backed him into a corner,” the source explained. “He’s basically suing his own father.”
The source also noted that a legal adviser is advising King Charles to avoid any direct communication with Prince Harry for fear that anything he says could be used against him in court. “Charles will therefore be under strict legal advice to avoid speaking to Harry for fear he may use something he says against him,” the source added.
Despite the tension, the source recognized that King Charles, although committed to his duties as monarch, remains a father at heart. “While Charles’ duty to the Crown comes above all else, he is still a father who knows that his son is following bad advice and there is nothing he can do about it until Harry stops this mad litigation,” explained the fountain.
The growing tension between the royal father and son is putting King Charles in a very difficult position, balancing his responsibilities as king with the emotional challenges of dealing with a family dispute of this magnitude. The situation remains unresolved as the legal battle continues.
