Prince Harry's revelations reignite old family secrets, exposing the royal estrangement

Tensions within the Windsor family are deeper than they seem. One of the main protagonists of the recent moments of tension is Prince Harry. The youngest son of Charles III remains a protagonist in a family narrative that seems endless.

Charles III and Harry: the truth about paternity

In a recent interview with the BBC, Prince Harry revealed that the distance with his father has never closed. According to him, the root of this separation lies in the dispute over his security in the United Kingdom. But the coldness in their relationship dates back much further.

The British press in the nineties caused rumors about Harry's true paternity. It speculated on the possibility that Harry's real father was James Hewitt, Lady Di's former lover. However, as he confessed in his autobiography Spare, Charles never clarified that situation.

"Dad never told me anything, not a word. That conversation where he assures me it's not true... never happened." It was Harry's confession, echoing the tensions that have been building for years.

Charles III's jokes that were never funny

What impacted Harry the most were the jokes his father made about it. "Who knows if I'm really the Prince of Wales? Who knows if I'm your real father?" Charles would say with laughter. According to Harry, "surprisingly unfunny" given the sensitivity of the topic.

These jokes, instead of easing the tension, only increased the emotional disconnection between them. This type of comment, along with the lack of a conversation on the subject, left Harry with a feeling of emptiness and emotional abandonment. Despite this, Harry has expressed his desire for a reconciliation with Charles III, but it seems that possibility finds no echo.

With each revelation, the gap between Harry and his family seems to grow deeper. In his interview, Harry made it clear that, despite his desire to solve things, the lack of communication remains an obstacle. Meanwhile, the legal and public confrontations continue, putting the royal family at the center of a drama that seems to have no end.
