Prince William is reportedly preparing himself to be king by modeling his behavior after his grandmother Queen Elizabeth, according to a renowned royal expert.
“I think he absolutely gets what his destiny is and he is embracing it,” royal biographer Penny Junor told The Sun. “He is modelling himself on his grandmother the Queen.”
This comes after William’s younger brother Prince Harry claimed that the heir to the throne felt “trapped” in the royal family. Another royal insider said that Harry was stunned by how he was treated when he returned to the United Kingdom for his grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral last month.
“Prince Harry was slightly stunned by the cold shoulder reception he got from many royals,” said royal expert Kevin O’Sullivan. “This is hardly surprising considering he called them a load of racists on television. I suspect that Harry may not come back in July.”
This comes after another source said that William is livid that Harry is once again airing the royal family’s dirty laundry in his new mental health docuseries “The Me You Can’t See.”
“William feels that Harry should discuss his issues privately and can’t comprehend why he continues to shade his own flesh and blood on TV,” a source told US Weekly. “Of course, mental health is a serious issue, but William can’t get his head around why Harry keeps throwing his family under the bus.”
The source went on to say that it will be difficult for William and Prince Charles, the brothers’ father, to ever make peace with Harry after all that has happened.
“There’s no way they’ll ever trust him after this,” the source said. “The damage is done.”
Harry claimed in his new series that he felt “helpless” when his wife Meghan Markle began contemplating suicide due to the harassment she suffered from the British tabloids.
“I thought my family would help, but every single ask, request, warning, whatever it is, just got met with total silence or total neglect,” Harry claimed. “I was ashamed to go to my family because — to be honest with you, like a lot of other people my age could probably relate to — I know that I’m not going to get from my family what I need.”
“That was one of the biggest reasons to leave, feeling trapped, and feeling controlled through fear,” he continued. “Both by the media and by the system itself, which never encouraged the talking about this kind of trauma. Certainly, now I will never be bullied into silence.”
