Charles may cut Harry from inheritance amid deepening rift

It's no secret that Prince Harry's relationship with the royal family is far from ideal. Since leaving the palace in January 2020, William's younger brother has spoken unfavourably about his relatives several times, further deepening the conflict.

The tabloid press—especially in the British Isles—has long reported the rift between Prince Harry and his older brother William. Their relationship deteriorated significantly after Harry and Meghan Markle left the royal court. Soon after, they began speaking openly about the "inconveniences" of life with the royals. First, in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, and later, Harry expanded on these issues in his book "Spare."

The consequences were visible almost immediately. Harry stopped visiting his homeland, even though his closest family still lives there, including his father, brother, and, at one time, his grandparents. It seems, however, that neither the prince nor the rest of the family desired a meeting.

Prince Harry may not receive an inheritance from his father?

Harry visited London in May this year. Although it was a short stay, the media were shaken by the fact that King Charles III did not find time to meet with his younger son. The reason was reportedly insufficient time. The lack of meetings is only the beginning of the repercussions of the family conflict. Insiders from "Closer Online" claim that the prince might not receive a single penny from his father's inheritance. For context, Charles's private fortune amounts to over 520 million GBP (about 925 million CAD).

The King had written his will long ago. It can be assumed that at that time, the largest shares were allocated to his sons. However, close relatives of the monarch, as well as court officials who are his advisory body, suggest that changes should be made to the inheritance. In their opinion, no money should go to Harry. Excluding the prince would likely be the final nail in the coffin for any reconciliation.

The level of distrust toward Harry is still incredibly high, to the point that Charles is being cautioned not to take his calls over fears anything he says will be used against him. The situation places the 75-year-old in a difficult position for supporting his son and maintaining a safe distance from the court case - explains an informant, pointing to the growing lack of trust towards Harry.

King Charles III has a fortune to pass on

Allegedly, among the members of the royal family, the biggest supporters of removing Prince Harry from the king's will are William and Camilla.

The royals hate the idea of Harry getting anything from the Windsors and the feeling is, now is the time to put it down on paper to reflect Harry’s impact on the monarchy and the stress he’s caused to his father - adds the source.

Court officials, on the other hand, point out other, more official aspects of Harry's relationship with the family.

Many in The Firm believe that, as a non-working royal, Harry shouldn’t receive any inheritance. They feel it would send the wrong message - summarizes the informant.

Do you think Prince Harry sometimes regrets moving from London to California?
