Bad Dad King Charles Feeds Prince Harry to the Wolves
Buckingham Palace is 828,820 square feet and has 52 guest bedrooms, but suddenly there’s no room for the King’s son. The King will also not provide security for his son and his family.
There’s no room at the inn, kid.

The King will not provide security for his son’s family or one single room at the taxpayer funded Palace.
A variety of excuses have been trotted out on behalf of King Charles to justify his revoking his offer of a room at Buckingham Palace, the renovations of which the taxpayers are funding even though Charles and Camilla have decided they will never live there.
They want the public to believe there’s not enough time for servants to prepare a room in the palace. But also, the written judgment in Harry et al’s privacy court case against Associated Newspapers Limited (ANL), publishers of the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday, is due Tuesday at 2 PM BST. The Palace claims it would be unseemly for the King’s son to be at the Palace when such a verdict is rendered.
This in and itself might seem odd, given that Prince William has sued multiple press organizations and has never been asked not to stay on Royal grounds because of it, but the problem here is this case that caused the now-King to suddenly withdraw funding from his son and daughter-in-law in 2020, “in retaliation for the naming of a top royal aide in legal papers alleging a cash-for-leaks arrangement with the journalist Dan Wootton,” Byline Times reported in 2023.
Harry named a former top royal aide to Prince William in this lawsuit, in association with the alleged cash-for-leaks scandal, and the pulling of funding was an effort at control.
“One well-placed source with knowledge of the matter told Byline Times: ‘They threatened the removal of the funding to try and protect the royal household from a potential courtroom scandal with Jones and Wootton very publicly at the centre. The actual removal of the funding weeks later was about control, and designed to force Harry and Meghan to come back to the senior royal family in the UK where their security would be assured.’”
Harry and Meghan had early on proven to be rock stars in the royal family, and that’s a status that the royal family has never looked fondly upon. The Queen’s sister Princess Margaret, Princess Diana, and now Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan. It just never goes down well for an institution that needs the heir to be the shining star.
