Senior aides within the royal palace have expressed their astonishment following Prince Harry’s latest remarks in which he accused the “men in grey” of sabotaging his reunion with King Charles. An insider claimed that the Duke of Sussex is causing unrest within the palace, particularly after just one meeting with his father.
“The courtiers see it as him trying to take charge, which is laughable to them,” the source shared with Heat Magazine, revealing the growing frustration in royal circles. The insider explained that palace insiders are still reeling from the public attacks Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, have made against the royal family over the past few years.
According to the source, Harry’s behavior has shocked those close to the monarchy, especially after his contentious past with the family. “People inside the palace are stunned at the audacity of Harry marching in and acting like he can dictate terms to them,” the insider said, referring to the recent Clarence House reunion.
The source also pointed out that Harry’s previous actions have led palace insiders to view him as the least likely person to be in a position of influence within the royal family. “After everything he’s done – the book, the interviews, the Netflix stuff, the way he’s trashed his family over and over – they see him as the last person who should be calling the shots,” the insider continued.
Despite only having one meeting with King Charles, Harry’s recent outburst has left royal aides perplexed. “He’s only just had one meeting with his dad and he’s already raising hell and accusing people inside the monarchy of trying to sabotage him,” the source explained.
The tension within the palace appears to be escalating, with courtiers perceiving Harry’s actions as an attempt to assume control over family matters. “The courtiers see it as him trying to take charge, which is laughable to them,” the insider reiterated.
This latest incident follows a string of public confrontations between the Duke and the royal family, with Harry and Meghan Markle continuing to be vocal about their dissatisfaction with their roles and treatment within the monarchy. The growing frustration among palace insiders reflects the deepening divide between the Duke and the royal family.
