Subtle way Prince Harry is being punished by father King Charles amid royal rift

King Charles has reportedly found a "subtle" way of making his upset with son Prince Harry known.

The King, 74, is said to be "punishing" Prince Harry, 39, amid rumours of a frosty relationship between the member of the Royal Family.

Ever since Harry and Meghan Markle decided to step back from royal duties and move to America in 2020, there has been talk of a feud. Tensions rose further when both Prince Harry and Meghan were critical of the royal family, including during an interview with Oprah.

The couple, who share children Archie and Lilibet, told Oprah that they believed the Palace could have quashed untrue reports about Meghan in the run up to their wedding.

Meghan also added that the negative public scrutiny, alongside the lack of support from the Palace, led to an emotionally harrowing first year as a royal.

Some of the tales in Harry's memoir, Spare, also brought up fractious relationship with his brother Prince William.

The infamous motto of the Royal family is "never complain, never explain", which seems to have been the case for the claims made in Spare, as Buckingham Palace declined to comment about any of the contents of the book at the time of its release.

Royal author Duncan Larcombe has now said that whilst King Charles is open to reconciliation with his estranged son Prince Harry, he is still unimpressed by the "betrayal".

It is being claimed by Duncan that the King will only communicate with Prince Harry through Palace advisors.

Royal commentator Duncan Larcombe said: "It appears that King Charles’ approach towards Harry now is business as usual – ‘if you want to see me you need to make an appointment’.

"Harry will have to get past the grey suits and jump through hoops to talk to his father. It's very standoffish but I think that's a way that the king is subtly punishing his son."

He continued: "I think that's a way that the king is subtly punishing his son."

Duncan speculated that King Charles is particularly upset about the way his wife Queen Camilla, 76, was represented in the memoir Spare.

He said that when King Charles ascended to the throne, he expressed his love for Prince Harry and Meghan which was an "olive branch".

But he has since alleged that Prince Harry "took, snapped in half and then hit him with it".

Duncan then added that King Charles is keeping "those channels of communication open" however.
