In the midst of strained relationships with King Charles and other members of the Royal family, Prince Harry has garnered support from relatives on his late mother’s side. As per a former Royal Butler, Princess Diana made a significant prediction about her sons, which has come to fruition, given the ongoing tension between Harry and his estranged brother, Prince William, showing no signs of abating.
Harry and Meghan Markle have encountered criticism from supporters of the Royal family since they resigned from their roles and relocated to the US with their son Archie. Their already strained relationship with The Firm worsened after leveling a series of stunning allegations against them.
Upon Harry’s arrival in the UK earlier this month, he did not meet with the monarch or Kate Middleton, who is facing a cancer battle.
Despite his strained relationship with his own relatives, Earl Charles Spencer and Lady Jane Fellowes, Princess Diana’s siblings, are offering support to Prince Harry.
During Diana’s funeral, Spencer vowed to consistently stand by both Harry and Prince William, affirming that their “blood family” will provide protection to the brothers and also “arm them spiritually and emotionally”.
Paul Burrell, former Royal Butler, has expressed that Diana “would be devastated” if she comprehended the extent of the royal conflict.
Burrell conveyed to Bella Magazine that if Diana were still alive, the conflict would not have arisen. “She would have seen this starting and she would have stopped it.”
He continued by suggesting that Princess Diana would have acted as a mediator and urged Harry to “apologize” to his father. Remembering her as a “peacemaker,” he emphasized her desire for the four of them to stay united.
“It broke her heart when that disintegrated. She would have predicted that once that disintegrated, William and Harry would have had problems of their own and that has come true,” Paul stated, adding that “it’s a lost cause” without Diana’s intervention.
It’s worth noting that during his recent visit to the UK, Harry met with Earl Spencer and Lady Jane Fellowes.
Royal expert Tom Quinn remarked on this, noting that the Spencer family has consistently demonstrated “where their loyalties lie” by supporting Harry at his Invictus Games.
Quinn emphasized that Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, has been a vocal critic of the Royal family’s treatment of his sister, particularly in relation to King Charles. He added that Earl Spencer grew increasingly uncomfortable with the Royals following Diana’s death.
Tom remarked that there is “still a lot of bitterness around” and emphasized the significance of the Spencers’ decision to support Harry. “The fact that the Spencers were out in force for Harry on this visit speaks volumes about where their loyalties lie. Like Harry, the Spencers still see the Royal Family, to some extent, as the enemy,” he explained.
