King Charles Left 'Furious' After William and Kate Snub Camilla During Royal Outing: Report
Tensions within the Royal Family have reportedly escalated after an alleged incident involving Queen Camilla left King Charles "furious" with the Wales couple.
King Charles and Prince Harry's recent reunion has reportedly caused friction within the Royal Family. After the King was said to have invited Harry to stay at Buckingham Palace, the move was seen as a "message of defiance" toward Prince William. However, Charles is also upset with William, as a new report claims he was left "furious" with the future King and Queen over an incident involving Queen Camilla.
The reported disagreement is said to be linked to William's relationship with Camilla. Royal broadcaster Ian Pelham Turner claimed Charles was left upset after William and Princess Kate allegedly disrespected the Queen. According to the report, things came to a head during a recent royal engagement when the Waleses were allegedly seen walking past Camilla without bowing or curtsying, something that reportedly left Charles particularly unhappy.
Turner told Express US, “I have heard there does not seem to be much family love between Camilla and William and Kate. They recently walked past the Queen without curtsying, which many interpreted as a public gesture of defiance.” He also said, “Charles will stand wholeheartedly by his wife,” and added that after the meeting toht the Sussexes, this was something he saw as the first public sign of the Duke's "defiance" in response.
The source also revealed that Charles made a special effort to welcome Harry, Meghan Markle, and their children Archie and Lilibet, during their recent trip to the U.K. That decision was not well received by William or Kate, further adding to the tension surrounding Camilla. Despite this, the King is said to have no plans to back down and is reminding William that he is still the monarch.
Turner also suggested that Charles wants the family to present a united front instead of letting their differences play out in public. "For the people, the Royal Family must be seen as a strong unit, rather than a real-life version of the Netflix drama The Crown," he added.
Harry recently visited the U.K. to attend a string of Invictus-related events ahead of the Games which will take place in Birmingham next year. He will be returning to the country yet again to attend the annual WellChild Awards Charles has extended the olive branch and offered a room to stay at Buckingham Palace during his visit.
