If your dad will only speak to you with a witness in the same room, it’s a decent indicator your family has serious trust issues. It’s been reported that during the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s private reunion with King Charles earlier this month, His Majesty made sure to have a “witness” in the room – Queen Camilla.
Charles met with Prince Harry, 41, Meghan Markle, 44, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, at his country estate of Highgrove on July 10. But reports have suggested that Camilla was also there – a woman Harry branded a “wicked stepmother” in his book ‘Spare’.
And royal writer Robert Jobson has concluded she was there “for a reason: To make sure that everything was witnessed.”
An insurance policy.
If this is true, that is a damning indictment of where the father and son’s relationship truly is right now. And who could blame King Charles?
The late Queen Elizabeth II refused to take Harry’s phone calls without another person present in the room and allegedly banned the Sussexes from bringing a photographer to one of their last meetings with her.
In Spare, Harry claimed that when he was born his “Pa”, as he calls the king, told Princess Diana that she had given him an heir and a spare, supposedly joking that his “work was done”.
Then Harry alleged that when his mother died, Charles woke him to break the news but did not hug him, noting his father was “not great at showing emotions under normal circumstances”.
Harry also suggested his father prioritised media coverage over their wellbeing.
In interviews Harry’s also said his father gave off the air of “not being quite ready for parenthood… But single parenthood? Pa was never made for that.”
Imagine a father hearing his son not just say that to you, but in a bestseller book and on promotional interviews to sell more copies – and make more money?
Harry has monetised his supposed pain and victimhood, while casting his father as some sort of villain. You can’t have a victim without a perpetrator.

He’s also proved willing to make private, father-and-son conversations public to make money.
For someone who rails against his privacy being under threat from the media, hypocrite Harry is perfectly willing to break his relatives’ privacy and spill the beans …. as long as he profits from it.
So who could blame King Charles for having someone in the room to watch his back?
The King has not penned a book about his son; Prince William has not written about his younger brother; Catherine has not done tell-all interviews about Meghan.
The Sussexes are now simply a leaky, unnavigable ship. And they set sail on that all on their own.
