What Prince William REALLY THINKS about Camilla | Reading the Royals | Daily Mail

[@twiley3530]

That was very good. What struck me was your saying William respected his grandmother highly and her judgment and it it was okay with the Queen it would be okay with him. She was a true leader. Bless her heart

[@karentucker3460]

Do you honestly believe the Queen who knew what Camilla is really made that statement out of anything more than guilt of how absent and aloof and self-absorbed a parent she had been? Charles bombarded her with his insistence she do it, she, knowing how she had failed him as a mother and hoping if she gave him his way would save the monarchy for the future of her entire family conceded and did it. For all her virtues, she in the end chose the love of her children over moral allegiance to her country, knowing how utterly she had failed them, he needed her endorsement and like Harold was willing to hound her to death to get it, what choice did she have if she wanted her family, the monarchy, her legacy to survive.....none . imho

[@thevocalcrone]

@@karentucker3460i believe it was a mother accepting her sons choices. You might be right though in saying she put her allegiances to family before country BUT on the other hand her son was going to go with his love anyway so perhaps she put her country first by accepting his choices because the other option would be that he might actually abdicate and leave the monarchy with a child king who would be open to the influences and exploitation of an Andrew and Fergie.

Exactly! Especially after having heard horrible stories from your mother about the new step-parent. It took us years to come to a place of respect and love, through some really rough times and situations, but my step-mother and I developed a deep understanding and a deep love for one another through our mutual love of my father. IMO, that is where William and Camilla are now.

​@Jayni86 she loves what comes with the perks of being a mistress. Now Camilla wants to put her family into royal roles and everything that true royals work so hard for. Carles has/ was paying her son, sister for work they were doing. I'm sure thre were other people that could have done those jobs. She wanted her family to get crown property, she put her family ahead of the Wales family on the balcony for the Coronation. Prince William is making sure that true royals stay on top, that does not include Parker bowls family. She should have been taught how to behave in front of dignitaries during state affairs,

[@gilliandawson6567]

IMHO, I think Catherine did a lot to improve the family bonds between William & Charles.

[@railiedouglas3018]

The Middletons & especially his wife have had a huge influence on how William has reconciled himself to Camilla I think. I think Catherine is a steady, sensible & calming presence in his life & her kindness, generosity of spirit & commonsense approach to life has helped William form his attitude to Camilla. Combined with his love for his Father & his own maturity as he parents his children has broadened his outlook & given him more tolerance & understanding of others points of view.

[@wildideas7368]

William has been very mature from early age and came along with Camilla. Willam knew his mother, her mental status and her countless lovers and adultery during the marriage. He was the one who had to listen her stories. When Camilla&Charles' marriages got blessing in the church, the boys where interviewed and Harry said that they love her in pieces, and they also decorated the car the couple used for driving away. Harry's "memories" changed only after Meghan became part of his life. Even Diana said positive comments on Camilla and her way to treat the boys in her late years.

[@letitiakearney2423]

@@wildideas7368this is about William and Camilla and no they didn’t have a good start and it took a lot of years for William to really accept her into the family. William was always bad tempered and people just gloss over and pick on Harry. Harry wasn’t the subject about William’s and Camilla’s relationship. It was only when the Queen gave her blessing that Camilla would be Queen Consort did the public do a turn around as it was said Not my Queen, people have very short memories. This is not about Harry it’s about William.

It takes many, many photos, a long with other reputable sources, to create an accurate picture of a situation. I have seen this happen most recently with the memorial service. Catherine looked great most of the time, but the press found one photo in which she looked older and tired. One person remarked that is due to the lighting on the balcony.

But now that Harry reminded us of the past, it all came back. Diana may look innocent, but she is no angel. She was manipulative and played with the media to be on her side, constantly reminding the boys and the world that their father was not fit to be King. That must've been really tough for the boys. The repercussions of her behavior have affected the boys, mostly Harry. As mentioned, William had a tough time with his father too, but thank goodness he had a strong woman by his side.

There is no doubt that the boys had a hard time with accepting Camilla at first. I truly think that William, as he matured, accepted that fact that his father needed to be happy and he knew deep down that Camilla was that person. She has been shown by many to be a deeply caring, compassionate person who would want all of the family to get along. She, after all, knew what Charles's destiny was and she also knew that she was his ultimate confidant and guide. I think shortly after Charles and Camilla married, William saw that too. Harry on the other hand would never ever and will never accept anyone in the role of "a wife for his father" except his own mother. He has not moved passed his mother being gone and has used it time and time again for his rude, crude, even hatefilled comments about his own immediate family. He has never grown up. William, not Prince of Wales has moved on and has seen is own wife, the Princess of Wales been lied about and criticized by his own brother, something that he will not tolerate or should he be expected to. I truly believe that Prince William, Catherine, and the rest of the Royal Family has accepted Camilla and found her to be, in the words of Queen Elizabeth the II, "his strength and stay". The now Queen, Camilla was valued by Queen Elizabeth and that is why before her death, she made sure that Camilla's title would be Queen Consort. William is very very much like both his Grandmother, with his deep sense of duty and never complain, never explain kind of attitude AND, his Grandfather's sense of fun and frankness when it comes to things. He doesn't suffer fools lightly. He has been taught well by the late Queen AND his Father about duty, honor, and country. The Princes of Wales is on the same page and don't forget, Queen Camilla took Catherine under her wing right before Catherine married William and they became great friends. I am happy that Charles and Camilla FINALLY were able to get together and truly love one another the way they should have been allowed to do decades before. Diana, though she was beautiful and caring to people, was not suited to royal life and she had many faults of her own that people overlook. Infidelity on her own part being one of them. She felt lonely and sought attention elsewhere and I truly believe she did it before Charles started paying a lot of attention to Camilla again. He really tried to make it work out until it became obvious that it wouldn't. Diana was a drama queen (she threw herself down a flight of stairs while pregnant with William b/c she didn't think she was getting enough attention from her husband). People forget that.

Richard, I've often mentiones your conection to HENRY, especially on Palace Confidential but Reading the Royals now, I believe you're on Henry's squad........you're among the very few people which continue to quote Henry's lies......It's time for your " HALO" to come off

[@HelenFarrell-dx7uz]

Not sure photographs showing a moment in time and Henry's cartoon diaries are a good source of information.

I've always been known as a good two-shoes, but after my dad had died I finally let my sister have it about how awful she and my nieces treated daddy. All he wanted was to be close with them, but they made it difficult. So it felt good to get it all out! My sis was like, Rachel Elizabeth if daddy were here he’d wash you're mouth out with soap. I just simply replied, “I'm just doing what he wanted telling you off and it felt good!”

[@sharrynadams1653]

I thought Camilla looked lovely at their wedding. She has proved to be such a steady support for King Charles. To give her her dues she put her head down and just got on with things. I admire her very much. King Charles and Queen Camilla look wonderful together.

[@ynys_mon6928]

I appreciate Richard’s insights, apart from the quotes from Harry’s biography. Given how so many stories from that are under the ‘recollections may vary’ category, it does take away from the veracity of the video.

Anyone who has critical thinking skills would understand that Charles and Diana’s marriage failed wasn’t because of Camellia. It would be a different woman with whom Charles was compatible even without camellia. Diana’s famous saying about the 3 person Diana referred to in her marriage with Charles was their Nanny Tiggy at the time of the infamous interview with martin bashir. It’s proven in her letter accusing Charles would kill her in order to marry Tiggy. William is a very intelligent person and has great EQ. Now he has his own successful marriage and he has a better understanding of what makes a good relationship and marriage. He understands what caused his parents’ marriage breakdown.

[@lyndaf.5604]

Thank you Richard. Very interesting commentary and some lovely photographs.

[@wendieking4184]

I think it’s best if we forget what Harry wrote about his brother’s feelings. He has little credibility at this point and discussion about relationships with people other than yourself, is very low.

[@leahnichol6665]

I do wish you would stop quoting Harry’s book Spare as if what he is saying is confirmed fact. There is ample evidence Harry is ‘remembering to support his current position’. I believe this is also true of both of the books from Dianna and Charles as they were breaking up. I disrespect your reporting because of this carelessness and fanning the flames of controversy.

[@veracity8968]

Prince Harry wrote the book after he is done many therapy and the world knows he spoke from his hurt telling the truth ! Now you can reject it all the way you want but that is his experience he lived !! Who are you judge smth you did not live ??? King Charles knows he said the truth this why he is tormented and keeps talking to his son so they can come up to peace w !!! Then started the day he forced Camila on them !!! The king knows that the boys are traumatized by all these ! Pray for peace instead of hating Prince Harry cause in the end this is a family like everyone else and they will reconcile like it or not !

[@leahnichol6665]

@ I am sorry my opinion upset you. I believe you are making some assumptions. I have made some of the mistakes I believe Harry has made. Also, I do not hate Harry - I feel sorry for him. I do pray for Peace and for reconciliation in my Royal family. I was criticizing journalists who do not report accurately and thoughtfully about a topic they purport to be experts in. I hope you following Prince Harry brings you joy.

[@JaneMcGarry-q6e]

Re the boys feelings of difficulty re Camilla lingering at the time of her marriage to Charles you say ‘We know it did from Harry’s memoires’ - Richard that is hardly proof of anything, we know full well that half of Harry’s recollections and the spin he puts upon them are distorted even the ones that aren’t downright lies.

[@nanetteharris3456]

I enjoy your calm voice and pleasant delivery.

[@mlk27743]

William understood what was happening between his parents. Unlike his younger brother Harry, who often appeared more naive, William didn’t take everything his mother said as absolute truth. He could see that his father was genuinely happier with Camilla. While Harry might criticize her in his book, William-like his grandmother-recognized Camilla’s role in supporting Charles rather than competing with him. He sees her for what she is: a woman his father deeply loves and respects. Camilla has also shown her supportive nature within the family, even helping Catherine adjust when she first joined. She understands how to support William as he steps into his evolving role, especially during such a challenging year with both Charles and Catherine facing cancer diagnoses.

It’s odd Camilla is surprised at William’s temper when Charles throws a fit over a pen that won’t work. 13:11 the queen said Camilla was to be called Queen Consort. Richard, you’re using Spare quotes as if we should trust it as fact. Huge mistake on your part.

[@AnnaMarieKenward]

As she is the King's consort. As such her title is Queen. All King's wives are known as consorts that's their role, but their title is simply Queen. This is what the late Queen meant for Camilla, the same as her mother before her, Queen Mary and Alexandra too. All were Queen Consorts.

[@msladybugbubbles]

@ I believe there is a distinction between the two titles. The wives of a reigning monarch are referred to as Queen consort while the title “queen” refers to a woman who has ascended the throne or is reigning regent. There is definitely a difference between the two. 🥰. This was a distinction queen Elizabeth (Queen consort) made but Charles changed (to queen).

[@AnnaMarieKenward]

@msladybugbubbles He didn't change anything. Consort is a role, but the title is always Queen. Same for all previous King's wives. All are consorts but titled Queen.

[@jsemplefelton5348]

It wasn't quite a fit over a pen, it was annoyance. He had just lost his mother and had no time to grieve, so don't underestimate the stress he was under. He had to carry on the Royal duties immediately after her passing have some compassion.

Absolutely love your seemingly unbiased commentary. No to be unkind (she prepares to be unkind), I really like British people’s commentary on the royals. I loved Diana as a girl of that era, and loathed Charles and Camilla. Years have past and I’ve grown up and can see the situation differently. I believe now it was awful for all involved. Thank heavens for the beautiful Camilla. She seems like a rock. She and William standing without their partners 😢. Anyway, love your videos. 🇨🇦🍁❤️

William was always known to have a temper, but Harry had the stubborn tantrums too (still does). Catherine, and her family, have been a huge influence on William too, he loved being with them when he was younger and is very comfortable in their presence too. It's nice to see how they have grown up and accepted Camilla, she has made Charles much happier than he ever was. Like all mixed families, Diana will always be the boys Mother, but accepting Camilla was paramount to all their lives, not forgetting Camilla's children too.

@@annefenelon5492 William and Harry led different lives growing up. William always had to 'learn to be a Monarch one day' but Harry didn't, so he had much more freedom than William. The in itself would cause 'jealousy'. Harry was also very jealous of William, not because he would be King one day, but because William looked so much like his Mother and had he mannerisms too. He even mentioned on a talk show that William doesn't look like their Mother now. I would say he probably does, because she would be in her 60's now so not the same face that Harry sees in his mind.

Great post. However, commenting to encourage you to use great caution before using Harry's Spare as a reliable source, but see others have already commented this. (I'm not even sure it's a realiable source for Harry's thoughts - let alone William - except as his sensationalistic and hyperbolic "story" at that moment.) Other than that source use, appreciated your work as usual. Great selection of photos!
