Prince William isn't Prince Harry's biggest problem - here's who is

Show Notes
Transcript

An insider tells Closer Magazine that Harry doesn’t need to worry about William so much as he needs to worry about Camilla who reportedly considers Harry to be a "wolf in sheep's clothing", who brings "stress and drama" to situations.

According to the insider, " Camilla is opposed to Harry making any sort of return, even for a friendly visit. She doesn’t want to come face to face with him, let alone show him any kind of forgiveness or mercy."

"It’s her belief that any interaction King Charles has with him is only going to be bad for his health and for the family as a whole. If Harry does get the invite back to the UK, he’d be wise to stay far away from Camilla."

00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:13.839
Callaroga Shark Media. Hello, and welcome to Pallas Intrigue. I

2
00:00:13.919 --> 00:00:17.359
am your host, Mark Francis when she wasn't calling all

3
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:21.600
of Megan Markle's ideas total crap. Tina Brown commented on

4
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:26.000
Prince William's anxiety. You've basically got Charles who's got cancer.

5
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:28.719
You've got Kate who's been through this terrible cancer about

6
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.239
herself and had to leave the stage for nearly a year.

7
00:00:31.359 --> 00:00:34.679
And William who's so curtailed by all this sort of

8
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:37.520
anxiety on his shoulder, his wife and his father and

9
00:00:37.560 --> 00:00:39.960
the whole thing. They could use a pretty upbeat, joyful

10
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:43.280
ambassador to the world who would be Harry. The problem

11
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.200
is that they have very much the same problem that

12
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:48.079
I talked about with Princess Diana and Charles, which was

13
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:51.840
known as the upstage problem. He does upstage William, There's

14
00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:55.039
no doubt about it, you know, on the stage. Unfortunately,

15
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:58.240
I think the hostility between Harry and William is such

16
00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:02.399
that I don't think William will ever Harry back. Brown

17
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.840
does think the British people would welcome Harry, but only Harry.

18
00:01:05.959 --> 00:01:08.359
According to Brown, I think if he came back alone

19
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:10.959
they would welcome him, but not if he came with Meghan.

20
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:14.079
And I don't think that Megan ever will because she

21
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:17.879
really really hated England for reasons I understand. I mean,

22
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:20.840
she didn't get the culture. She just didn't get it.

23
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:24.120
Feels so rejected by England. But England feels very rejected

24
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:28.400
by Meghan. So it's kind of an impass there in England.

25
00:01:28.439 --> 00:01:31.280
They're going to sort of constantly make a career out

26
00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:33.599
of sort of trashing Harry. But the thing about Harry

27
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:36.079
is that he's very, very good at being Prince Harry.

28
00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.200
That's the tragedy in all of this is that he

29
00:01:39.280 --> 00:01:42.760
is the most talented member of the royal family, without doubt,

30
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.000
in terms of being a prince, which is all he

31
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:47.359
does know how to do. He's really good when he

32
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:50.879
goes on these much mocked foreign trips, for instance, He's

33
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:53.560
just really good at it. He's charming, he's funny, he's sweet,

34
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:56.079
he's authentic, he has a real sense of being true

35
00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:00.120
and real. He's really sort of flawless at it. An

36
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:03.319
insider tells Closer magazine that Harry doesn't need to worry

37
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:05.680
about William so much as he needs to worry about Cammella,

38
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.120
who reportedly considers Harry to be a wolf in sheep's

39
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.479
clothing who brings stress and drama to situations. According to

40
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:16.520
The Insider, Camilla is opposed to Harry making any sort

41
00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:19.360
of return, even for a friendly visit. She doesn't want

42
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:21.439
to come face to face with him, let alone show

43
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.479
him any kind of forgiveness or mercy. It's her belief

44
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:26.960
that any interaction King Charles has with him is only

45
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:29.039
going to be bad for his health and for the

46
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.439
family as a whole. If Harry does get the invite

47
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:35.240
back to the UK, he'd be wise to stay far

48
00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:39.240
away from Camilla. In The Daily Mail, Richard Eden's recent

49
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.879
take on Megan Minkle's post royal life reads like a

50
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:46.120
top ten what not to do list. Eden outlined ten

51
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:50.599
missteps he believed downgraded her from duchess to d list

52
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:55.360
number one Sussex Royal drama. In January twenty twenty, Megan

53
00:02:55.400 --> 00:02:57.639
and Harry announced they were stepping down as royals before

54
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:01.000
talking to the Queen, launting their Sussex Royal website and

55
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:04.800
trademarking over one hundred items. The Queen wasn't amused, and

56
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.319
soon they were barred from using the royal title. Two

57
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:11.759
The Oprah Interview. Megan's Chat with Oprah in twenty twenty

58
00:03:11.759 --> 00:03:15.159
one aimed for Hollywood entry, but instead seemed to backfire

59
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:18.159
in the States, especially since it aired while Prince Philip

60
00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:23.120
was gravely ill. Three Naming Lilibet. Naming their daughter after

61
00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:27.400
the Queen's intimate nickname without clear permission reportedly irked the Queen,

62
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:30.560
who's said to have remarked that her name was one

63
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:36.039
thing she owned. Spotify solo Number four. Spotify's twenty million

64
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.560
dollar deal for a power couple podcast turned into Megan's

65
00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:43.520
solo show Archetypes, which didn't make it past the first season,

66
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:50.560
leaving executives disillusioned. Five Netflix Curtsy, Megan's exaggerated curtsey to

67
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:54.599
the Queen in their Netflix series landed poorly, leaving viewers

68
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:57.039
wondering if it was meant as a joke or mockery.

69
00:03:57.800 --> 00:04:02.560
Number six Commonwealth Critique, Meghan's series contributor calling the Commonwealth

70
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:05.639
Empire two point zero didn't sit well with those who

71
00:04:05.719 --> 00:04:08.599
remember it as a significant part of the Queen's legacy.

72
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:13.280
Number seven Uvoudi Memorial Meghan's appearance at a Texas school

73
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:16.120
shooting memorial in twenty twenty two days after the tragedy,

74
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:19.959
struck Summers rushed with criticism of being too public gesture

75
00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:25.439
at number eight expensive Harlem Visit, Meghan's six hundred twenty

76
00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:29.000
nine dollars outfit at a Harlem school with underprivileged kids

77
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:32.600
was viewed as tone deaf given the significant portion of

78
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:38.199
students and free meal plans. Number nine American Riviera Orchard missfire.

79
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:41.720
When Eden got wind of Meghan's new brand, American Riviera Orchard,

80
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:46.040
she seemingly launched it prematurely to avoid a Daily Mail scoop.

81
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:49.800
The brand's Instagram launched with a glitsy video, but eight

82
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:53.519
months later, the goods have yet to appear, and ten

83
00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:58.839
solo red carpet appearances. Meghan's La red carpet solo events

84
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:02.600
suggest She's compete thing for Hollywood attention, contrasting sharply with

85
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:07.439
her prior royal presence. Eden specifically mentions while her Hollywood

86
00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:09.720
agents might have advised her that she needs to be seen,

87
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:13.560
her royal status is diminished each time that she competes

88
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.399
for attention from the cameras with the massed ranks of

89
00:05:16.439 --> 00:05:21.519
American stars, sometimes in less than regal outfits. Bell's intrigued

99
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:53.959
and Queen Camiller's first full day in Samoa may have

100
00:05:54.040 --> 00:05:56.360
been marked by heavy rain, but for the locals this

101
00:05:56.480 --> 00:05:59.639
was a welcome sign. The downpours coinciding with the King's

102
00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:03.759
visit are believed to bring blessings, heralding a bountiful harvest

103
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:08.040
of the prized palolo, a coral reef worm that spawns

104
00:06:08.040 --> 00:06:10.319
only twice a year and is celebrated as a delicacy

105
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:13.920
in Samoa. Locals weighed into the reefs to collect the pololo,

106
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:16.399
which can fetch up to one hundred ten pounds for

107
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:19.800
a small pot, known for its unique flavor reminiscent of

108
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:23.199
caviare and seaweed with a noodle like textures, often fried

109
00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:26.680
with eggs or baked into bread with coconut milk. In

110
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:29.319
his keynote speech at the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting,

111
00:06:29.839 --> 00:06:33.319
King Charles addressed the importance of acknowledging painful aspects of

112
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:36.480
Britain's past, including its role in the slave trade, while

113
00:06:36.519 --> 00:06:40.199
stopping short of committing to reparations. Reflecting on the enduring

114
00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:43.639
impact of historical injustices, he stated none of us can

115
00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.360
change the past, but urged leaders to commit with all

116
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:50.800
our hearts to our learning its lessons. Speaking in front

117
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.519
of Commonwealth leaders from fifty six nations, Charles highlighted the

118
00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:58.920
need for mutual understanding and respect, particularly amid today's global challenges.

119
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.639
Addressing the climate crisis, a major concern for Samoa, where

120
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:06.240
rising sea levels threaten much of the island, Charles advocated

121
00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:10.040
for collaboration to achieve shared goals. He underscored the value

122
00:07:10.079 --> 00:07:13.519
of small and large nations working together, saying together we

123
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:16.480
are wiser, stronger and more able to respond to the

124
00:07:16.519 --> 00:07:20.680
demands of our time. Charles took part in a traditional ritual,

125
00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:23.680
drinking the ceremonial beverage carver made from the root of

126
00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:26.639
a plant. Carver is a drink made from powdered root

127
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:31.279
containing carvelactones, which have some psychoactive properties, according to the Guardian.

128
00:07:32.040 --> 00:07:35.759
While rain soaked the landscape, King Charles embraced his new surroundings.

129
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:39.600
Honored as a paramount Chief of Thomas Sina, he was

130
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:43.959
welcomed with traditional ceremonies, donning a custom made short sleeved

131
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:47.120
white suit with a trim by the Samoan School of Arts.

132
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:51.480
At a ceremony in Moata's village village, Chief Talfano la

133
00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.079
Party for Time bestowed the title of Tui Tamasina on Charles,

134
00:07:56.120 --> 00:07:58.920
saying once he has the title of Tui Tamasina, we

135
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:01.519
will become part of it and he will be connected

136
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:04.560
