An unexpected decision by Harry once again shakes the emotional foundations of the United Kingdom’s royal family.
In the Windsor family, blood ties have been put to the test for generations. Differences between siblings aren’t new; they’ve arisen for centuries, but they always draw everyone’s attention. This is especially true when the main characters are the most famous heir and “spare” on the planet.
Charles III, the current monarch, and his children have experienced moments that left a mark on modern history. Suppressed emotions, royal duties, and personal wounds have never been easy to heal or balance. Today, a new page is added to this story that moves people because of its humanity.
An emotional change of course
Harry has made a personal decision aimed at seeking inner change; he has started psychological therapy. According to “RadarOnline,” he seeks to break the family patterns that shaped him. “Harry is now very interested in well-being and mental health thanks to Meghan’s influence,” the source states.

Meghan Markle fully supports this process; she is concerned about his future as a father and husband. “She’s afraid that the mistakes of the past could be repeated,” the publication adds. For Harry, healing his story is the only way to be a better father to Archie and Lilibet.
Scars that haven’t healed
The memory of his mother, Diana, remains present and painful for the Duke of Sussex. He still feels the weight of having been forced, along with William, to walk behind her coffin during the funeral. He also recalls his father’s “withdrawn and emotionless mood” after that tragic moment.
The book “Spare” captured one of the harshest scenes between Charles and Diana. Upon learning that the baby was a boy, Charles commented: “Wonderful! Now you’ve given me an heir and a spare: my job is done.” According to Harry, that phrase left his mother “devastated.”
The news doesn’t just impact Harry; it also stirs deep emotions in his brother William. Although the path toward reconciliation seems long, this gesture speaks of intention and self-awareness. In a family where silences weigh more than words, change can come from within.
Harry and William find out Charles III’s situation is serious: it’s official
The shocking and secret habit of Charles III that leaves Harry and William astonished, something no one imagined
In the British royal family, traditions and discipline are essential. Charles III follows them, but not everyone does. However, behind Charles III’s majesty, there is a highly structured life, and every detail seems to be marked by an almost military discipline. This level of precision and order has been a constant throughout his life and always has been.
Charles III has spent decades perfecting his daily routine. For his sons, Harry and William, some of these habits might seem extreme, but for the king, they’re simply part of his daily life. This precise and methodical approach has been a topic of conversation within the royal family.
A bath with very precise rituals
One of the most surprising aspects of Charles III’s daily life is his bath. It’s not a quick shower, but a highly ritualized process. According to his former butler Paul Burrell, the king has rules for this moment, such as filling the bathtub halfway with water at 68°F (20°C).
The bathtub plug must be placed in an exact spot, the towel folded in a particular way, and the bath oil is always from the British brand Olverum. All of the above shows the obsession Harry and William’s father has for order.
The above is not a minor detail. For Charles, the bath is a kind of ritual in which he finds calm in his busy life. This process is carefully designed and has become an essential part of his day.
Charles III’s work routine: everything under control
Charles III is known for starting his day early, even before the traditional bagpipes that mark the beginning of the day at the palace. Instead of relying on email, the king prefers to write and dictate notes by hand, something he meticulously reviews with his unmistakable red marker. His workday is intense, often extending late into the night, with assistants on call to handle any call or correction.
Food is not a priority for Charles III either. He rarely has lunch because he believes it interrupts his workflow. However, at 5 p.m., he takes a sacred break for tea, accompanied by pastries, cookies, or sandwiches. He usually shares this moment with Queen Camilla.
Absolute control, even on his trips
When he travels, Charles III keeps his rigorous habits, bringing his own orthopedic bed and toilet seat. He also demands that the room temperature be adjusted to his preferences, although he always sleeps with the window open, no matter the outside conditions. These small details show how the king’s life is marked by a discipline that covers every aspect of his existence.
Even though these customs might seem like quirks to some, for Charles III they’re a personal necessity. Every element of his routine is designed to keep order, control, and calm in his daily life.
Prince William feels Prince Harry’s absence as he takes key decision
Royal sources reveal Prince William’s new strategy with Prince Harry no longer in picture
Prince William is trying to fill the gap left by his younger brother Prince Harry as he leans on his Royal cousins.
As per latest report, the Prince of Wales is turning to his cousins, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, in absence of the Duke of Sussex.
Speaking with Us Weekly, a royal source revealed that Harry’s absence has affected William not just emotionally but also in terms of sharing responsibilities.
While William, the Prince of Wales, is busy with official work, like his recent visit to a military base, Harry and his wife Meghan Markle are living a very different life in the US.
Recently, the Duchess of Sussex dropped a fun video of herself and Harry dancing in a hospital room just hours before giving birth to Princess Lilibet.
“Harry and Meghan are highlighting a life of fun and lightness while William’s is dominated by duty and public service,” an insider said.
“They are worlds apart,” they added about the royal brother’s lives.
The source continued, “Harry left a large gap in William’s world, not just personally but practically.
“The whole idea was for Harry to work hand-in-hand with William and to divide and conquer during William’s monarchy.”
“He feels deserted by his brother, not that he would ever say that out loud.”
Prince William planning to cut Prince Harry’s children from any ‘Royal roles’. Can they keep their title?
Prince William plans to sever ties with Prince Harry and his family when he becomes king, excluding Harry’s children from royal roles.
Prince William is preparing to take the throne when the time comes, but he may leave no room for his younger brother, Prince Harry, or Harry’s family.
Multiple royal sources suggest that once William becomes king, he plans to cut ties not just with Harry and Meghan Markle, but also with their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. “When he becomes king, Archie and Lilibet won’t have roles, titles, or royal responsibilities,” a source told journalist Rob Shuter.
“He doesn’t want any lingering ties to the Sussexes.”
The Prince of Wales is said to be focused on both caring for his father, King Charles III, who is battling cancer. His strained relationship with Harry has only worsened over the years, especially after Harry’s memoir Spare and a series of interviews.
Excluding Harry’s children from future royal roles was “100% William’s call,” the aide told Shutter.
“Kate expressed concern, especially for the children, but William wouldn’t budge. He believes this is the only way to protect the crown.”
Inside William’s plan to rewrite the monarchy
Now the big question is, can Harry’s children keep their royal titles? Legally, yes, the monarch has the power to amend royal titles via a new Letters Patent.
“William is shaping the monarchy his way,” one insider noted. “No Hollywood royals, no second chances.”
Since relocating to California, Harry and Meghan have carved out a new life in the public eye.
Some insiders have since claimed William would “love” to see Harry’s marriage fall apart. “As long as Meghan’s on the scene, William simply won’t entertain the possibility of making peace with Harry,” a source told Radar Online.
“It would only work if she were long gone from Harry’s life. Realistically, William doesn’t expect his brother to leave Meghan, but he wouldn’t be the least surprised if she gets bored of Harry at some point and spits him out.”
With Charles’ health declining following a cancer diagnosis in early 2024, Prince Harry has said, “I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point continuing to fight anymore; life is precious.”
Prince William Just Knighted Someone That Will Earn Him Cool Points with George, Charlotte and Louis
Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis will certainly be impressed with their dad after his latest royal duty

Prince William‘s latest royal duty will be something to brag about when he gets home to his three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
The Prince of Wales, 43, hosted an investiture ceremony at Windsor Castle on Wednesday, June 25, where he knighted Sir Gareth Southgate for his services to English soccer. After years of playing the sport, Southgate led England’s men’s squad to the 2018 World Cup semifinals, the Euro 2020 final, the 2022 World Cup quarterfinals and the Euro 2024 final as manager.
Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, are all known soccer fans, likely earning Prince William some cool dad points at home. Prince George joined his father at the Euro 2024 final match last summer to cheer on England, while Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis watched the game on TV sporting personalized jerseys.

Prince William previously revealed that his children play an important role in his soccer superstitions, especially while watching his favorite team, Aston Villa. Speaking to The Sun in March, William said: “If I’m home alone with the children, I probably don’t have the pre-match pint, but I do have a bit of superstition about where I sit when I’m watching them.”
“If we’re not doing very well, I start moving round the house quite quickly, and I put the children in different positions hoping that’s going to change our luck,” he added.
The investiture ceremony was likely a big moment for Prince William, who has spent time with Southgate as president of the Football Association, a position he held for almost 20 years before shifting his role to patron last year.
Southgate knelt before the Prince of Wales, who tapped him on the shoulders with a sword. William then placed a medal around the soccer star’s neck before chatting together for a few moments.
Kensington Palace shared a video celebrating the achievement, captioned, “Congratulations Sir Gareth Southgate on a well-deserved knighthood. From your Crystal Palace debut to being England Manager. Thank you for everything you’ve done for football.”
“I’m a proud Englishman, a proud British man, and to join such an amazing list of people who’ve received this honor and to be recognized by your country in a way like this, is a very special moment for me — and especially for my family as well,” Southgate, 54, said.

The coach stepped down from his role last summer after England were beaten by Spain in the Euro 2024 final, and he said after being knighted that he didn’t miss the job.
“It is a little bit strange, but also I’m not missing it,” Southgate told BBC Sport. “I think it’s important that I am on that sofa and out of their way, you know. It’s theirs to take on now, and I think it’s important that I give the team as much space as possible.”

Prince William is being honored this Father’s Day.
On Sunday, June 15, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, took over the Prince and Princess of Wales’ Instagram account to share a sweet tribute.
The first of the two photographs included in the post showed Prince William with his arms around the children as they posed for a photo, standing underneath what appeared to be a cherry tree. The second snap captured the playful moment when the kids piled on top of him as they lay on the ground.
“Happy Father’s Day, Papa (before and after!) We love you! G, C & L 💖,” the post was captioned.

Josh Shinner, a photographer who has also previously taken photos of the Princess of Wales, was tagged in the post.
The snaps appeared to be taken on the same day as the portraits for Louis’s 7th birthday.
The heartfelt Father’s Day message was shared following a major family appearance the day prior at Trooping the Colour.
On Saturday, June 14, the Prince and Princess of Wales stepped out with their three kids to attend King Charles‘ birthday parade. Trooping the Colour is a 265-year-old annual tradition in which the seven regiments of the British Army’s Household Division convene for a festive military march organized to recognize the British monarch’s official birthday.
The moment marked the second major appearance of the year for Prince William, Princess Kate and their kids as a family, following the children’s surprise appearance at the national commemorations for the 80th anniversary of VE Day in May.

The Prince and Princess of Wales have been working to ensure their children’s childhoods are balanced with a sense of normalcy, with school and family time prioritized as it is for other kids.
“Those children look pretty happy with life,” a palace insider previously told PEOPLE. “A lot of it is the stabilizing normality Kate brings — and that’s how she grew up. William absolutely loves it.”
The Wales family weathered a year unlike any other in 2024, as King Charles and Princess Kate both announced that they were undergoing treatment for cancer.
In a candid interview on the ground from his 2024 Earthshot Prize in Cape Town, South Africa, in November, Prince William described the year as the most “brutal” of his life.
“It’s been dreadful. It’s probably been the hardest year in my life,” the heir to the throne said. “So, trying to get through everything else and keep everything on track has been really difficult.”
He then commended his wife and father for how they faced cancer.
“But I’m so proud of my wife, I’m proud of my father, for handling the things that they have done. But from a personal family point of view, it’s been, yeah, it’s been brutal,” William said.
