Prince Harry's relationship with Camilla, Queen Consort (formerly known as Camilla Parker Bowles) went back under the microscope after the Duke of Sussex's memoir became news. If Harry still has ill feelings toward Camilla, most of us can guess why.
Now, an author who spent time with Harry while writing a biography about him has revealed that Camilla has been "upset" with her stepson for some time as well. Reportedly, it's all because of how he and Meghan Markle have treated King Charles III since they stepped down.
In 2017, Angela Levin, who wrote Harry: A Biography of a Prince, interviewed the now-Duke of Sussex about his partying ways when he was in his 20s, his time in the military, and his role as a member of Britain's most famous family. According to Levin, the Harry who spoke to Oprah Winfrey the way he did about his family seems like a different person than the one she met years earlier. And the attacks on his father are what specifically upset Camilla the most.
"She gets very upset when they hurt King Charles," Levin told Sky News (per Express). "She was very sorry for him [after the Oprah interview]. But she understands how parents can love their children but absolutely dislike what they're doing."
Another royal commentator said that she doesn't think Camilla will ever be able to forgive not only Harry but also his wife for their behavior.
"I don't think the [Queen Consort] will ever forgive Meghan for what she's done to the [King Charles]," royal expert Camilla Tominey wrote in The Telegraph.
But no matter how upset Camilla may be an insider told Tominey that she must try not to let it get to her as she knows what her role is in supporting Charles and the monarchy. Tominey added: "It is not an exaggeration to say she has been [the king's] rock throughout this crisis."
