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

[@LeaTom-z1i]

Why on earth would you give any credence to anything that Harry wrote in Spare, he’s a proven liar!

[@louesparza8003]

Bingo!

[@isabellak1394]

I believe there are elements that are true in it, scattered in between numerous lies of course, but also a lot of hyperbole, biased recollections seen through his blatant resentment, pettiness, vindictiveness and perceived offenses. All topped up with an immense sense of entitlement and skewed victim narrative.

[@TheIddieMorris]

👍👍💯

[@barbaralong2965]

I agree. Harry's points of view are so narrow. He sensationalized the stories in his book, which was written to make lots of money. So many other things have proven to be false and misremembered, and Harry's book is not a credible source.

[@willx9352]

I don’t think hs is a liar, in the same way that Meghan is. He just chooses to view events through his own bitterness and paranoia.

[@jacquelinereid3589]

Spare isn't exactly a 'go to' encyclopedia of Royal truths Richard.

[@sydneyleonard1348]

Why would you assume Harry’s memoir is accurate when it says anything about Prince William’s opinions? Or that anything in Harry’s memoir is accurate for that matter?

[@louesparza8003]

Exactly!

[@TheIddieMorris]

👏👏👍

[@Michelle-kj7wv]

Remember when Princess Catherine photo shopped slight parts of the Royal children and the media was mass hysterical? Now they are begging for photos and they are simply Marked by Hazy Harry and the majority despise them equally 😂

[@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.

[@KR-ms6km]

How can you honestly take "Spare" as a valid source of information? Apart from this, a beautiful and sensitive contribution to the family. Thank you!

[@tracytrebilcox]

As a child of divorced parents, it took time to acknowledge step-parents. I can't imagine doing that on a global stage where everyone is watching.

[@Cath-e5d]

William knows his father is supported and loved by Queen Camilla. William is honourable and loves his father too.

[@helenadavies5674]

Gee, imagine taking ANYTHING that harry says as having any truth in it. Wow Richard.

[@margaretmorris672]

Really interesting thank you. I pay little heed to any report coming from Harry, too many untruths in Spare to give him credence over anything.

[@thepunpolice11]

Why do believe anything Harry says in Spare as accurate?

It's apparently accurate for Harry and shows where he is coming from - even if he has the facts wrong.

[@jilliegirlie333]

William has the maturity to know his mother and father were never met to marry but understands now how the RF forced the marriage. Im sure Camilla has earned his trust and can see his father is happy.

[@Pisti846]

A happy and supported king is a good king.

[@maureenkinross8177]

Well that is actually a stupid thing to say if Charles and Diana had never married then we wouldn't be graced with such an amazing young men as prince William who has all the best and wonderful caring loving nature as his beautiful dear mother the late beautiful Princess Diana William has his mother's good looks and her intelligence and personality he has his mums beautiful blue eyes so much of Princess Diana you can see in prince William he has his mother's empathy and generosity of heart and one day hopefully not too far in the future William will become our king William will be an amazing king just like the late beloved Queen Elizabeth was but prince William will the the kind of king our common wealth countries need for the future a modern king with his beautiful wife princess Katherine standing beside William as his Queen loving and supporting William just like the late queen and the duke of Edinburgh but prince William and princess Katherine will be a formidable force a modern king and queen we need for the future iof the monarchy ❤

[@dotwillcoxson5352]

You really don't believe anything in Spare do you?

[@Cath-e5d]

Richard! How can you believe any lying comment from Harry in Spare‼️

[@patriotmama]

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.

[@bettyh7586]

I really do enjoy these snippets of Royals. Keep it up !

[@petrasabina70]

Thanks Richard! Lots of incredibly inaccurate things have been written or assumed about Camilla. Diana came into the marriage damaged by her own family, and she would have been difficult to live with. She knew how to use her image to portray herself as victim. Charles didnt have it easy. The press helped create a one-sided narrative that made Charles look cold and heartless...this was never the case. Camilla was always the love of Charles life and they ought to have been allowed to marry in the first place. If Diana was alive she would still be friends with Charles and would be continuing her humanitarian work. And whatever Harry has said in his book is just to be nasty. Great episode Richard!

[@jessk7240]

Yes. I’ve always thought the heartless Charles thing was an object lesson in the power of the media. Charles is not a perfect human, no one is, but you only have to know a very little about him to see he’s all heart and sensitivity and a truly good man.

[@Donna_Relaxing]

To be perfectly honest I hadn’t thought of Camilla for years and had no negative thoughts towards her ~ UNTIL Diana’s Son reminded me all about the past because of SPARE ~ AND also, because of SPARE I now know how very manipulative Diana was with the press as well as her negative, shocking, and childish behavior she had towards staff, family, and “friends”. Though Harry was trying to make Camilla into a Disney wicked step-mother ~ we actually discovered horrible things about Diana we never knew 😢 (I’m the same age as Diana and loved, worshiped Diana - no more) Harry should’ve kept that door closed

[@juliaperry2812]

diana was badly affected from her childhood, her father was a bastard, violent towards her mother, and he threw her out, diana and her younger brother did not see there mother for some time, this all affected how she coped in adulthood, all very sad. she would never mentally managed being queen

A great piece Richard 🎉🎉

[@sheilacasper2030]

I appreciate your opinions, Richard.

[@lumenesque1]

Wasn't there some footage of Harry smashing a large handful of confetti over his fathers head, in a rather violent manner, after the marriage ceremony for Charles and Camilla? It seems, at least in Harry's case, the boys were more resentful than their apparent ease about the marriage. It is wonderful, however to see how William has grown and matured within these difficult relationships. It puts in stark contract Harry's regression into bitterness and malignancy since Meghan became such a big influence in his life.

[@cherylreid9165]

Time and time again, the attitude of the wife (or husband) can play a huge role in the way a man treats any problems within his original family. It says a lot about the personalities of Catherine and Meghan.

[@SG-mj3dj]

Watch the whole send off. The footage from that day (as well as Harry's words through the years) are hardly violent or resentful

[@lumenesque1]

@SG-mj3dj I reference emotional leaks, not the overall facades.

[@deborahpetipas9365]

This was an enjoyable look back at the relationship of Queen Camilla & Prince William. I truly enjoyed your research and presentation. Thank you Richard.

[@jtrevm]

Richard; your narrative style, excellent research, keen eye, pleasure in your subject with your smile, make this a wonderful watch. Well done. Completely professional.

[@shellbell2628]

You would think that after all the people who asked Harry to slow down with Meghan and how angry the got about all of it, Harry would now realize how his father would have felt being asked not to marry Camilla. But once again with Harry, he doesn’t see the hypocrisy and hasn’t learned anything or grown up in any way.

[@kathrynmckay1638]

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. 🇨🇦🍁❤️

[@ScotShaRon]

A good video Richard but please don't put Harry's words into Williams mouth because they can't be proven to have been his feelings etc. We all know that Spare was full of hard done by Harry's "feelings" of truth

[@jessiemerrick2139]

I think Catherine made a big difference to William’s attitude towards Camilla as she is the peacemaker

[@jillosler4282]

Diana introduced her much younger sons to more than one of her lovers.

[@jasminebean5762]

According to Wendy Berry who wrote The Housekeeper's Diary, Diana used the boys like so many divorcing parents as weapons against their the other parent. Listening to a review of the book on ocassions her behaviour was appalling. I think it a shame the book was banned in the UK at the time as it gives a far more balanced view of the breakup than we got from the media. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaeXiZWwp9OVrMU

[@cornelia9778]

[@PlanttreesMS]

We all should remember that Charles and Camilla met and fell in love in the 70's, long before Diana was in the picture. But, Charles was forced to give her up as unsuitable. To cope with the loss, Camilla married very quickly, while Charles was on a tour of duty. Then he was pressured into choosing Diana. But in the end Camilla's and Charles' love for each other endured.

[@raffila]

IF you come from an English old-fashioned family, as I do, it's likely that the cheek kiss is seen differently from today's informal air-cheek kiss. Our cheek kiss is lips touching cheek. It's a way for the kisser to show a love or deep affection. It's reserved for family or very close friends of family. In our modern family we continue this tradition, kissing the loved one on their arrival and departure from our home. We know that you never know the future, so by always kissing goodbye we can insure that our last encounter ended with a kiss. We also kiss everyone at bedtime.

[@Jojopangpang]

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.

[@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.
