King Charles and Prince William Reunite in Frosty Royal Ceremony

With so much focus on Prince Harry and King Charles' estrangement, it's easy to forget that Prince William has also had a tricky relationship with his father.
William and Charles made a rare joint appearance this week at the Order of the Bath service at Westminster Abbey to mark 300th anniversary of the order, and William didn't seem entirely thrilled to be there. More on that below.
Meanwhile, a flattering report in The Sunday Times rejected any characterization of Charles relationship with his sons as 'distant.'
A 'royal insider' is cited in the piece as saying, 'I don't think he was emotionally distant. That was one of the great myths and one of the great untruths that Diana propagated, that Charles was cold and not fun with the children, and that she was the fun one.'
It is truly incredible that some people in the Windsor orbit are still interested in rubbishing Diana's name, but this renewed effort to rewrite history to portray Charles as a warm and avuncular father should not stand unchallenged.
First off: A young Prince Charles appeared happy to be photographed holding 2-year-old Prince William's hand as they arrived at St. Mary's Hospital to meet newborn Prince Harry in September 1984. However, in Harry's memoir Spare, Charles exclaimed to Princess Diana on the day he was born, 'Wonderful! Now you've given me an heir and a spare—my work is done.' According to Harry, Charles then left to play polo immediately afterward.
Elsewhere in Spare, Harry describes Charles as a 'loving, but sometimes distant father' who rarely showed physical affection.
In the 2021 Apple TV+ series The Me You Can't See, Harry recalled his father saying to both boys at unhappy moments during their childhood: 'Well, it was like that for me, so it's going to be like that for you.'
However, Harry had a damning verdict on this stiff-upper-lip philosophy: 'That doesn't make sense. Just because you suffered, that doesn't mean your kids have to suffer,' he said
In a candid livestream conversation in March 2023 with trauma expert Dr. Gabor Maté (part of the promotion of Spare), Harry discussed the 'lack of touching' and hugging in the royal household. He noted that his father loved his sons deeply, 'but he just couldn't show it' in the way they needed, because of how he himself was raised in an emotionally reserved family.
Moreover, there is little argument among William's friends that Charles' emotional remoteness extended to his relationship with William. Charles even reportedly became jealous of the public adulation William and Kate had generated.
'Pa and Camilla didn't like Willy and Kate drawing attention away from them or their causes,' Harry wrote in Spare, noting that 'they'd openly scolded Willy about it many times.'
Harry also described how William discovered that Charles (and Queen Camilla) had a hand in leaking unflattering stories about William and Kate to the tabloids. Harry writes that his brother was left 'seething' and 'justifiably incandescent' upon learning that 'Pa and Camilla's people had planted a story or stories about him and Kate, and the kids' in the press.
A friend of William's told The Royalist, 'The boys certainly did have a difficult relationship with Charles after their mother died. It was part of what brought them so close together and why their estrangement today is so awfully sad.'
Prince William's grumpy expression this week as he carried out that joint engagement with his father showed, perhaps, why such double headers are vanishingly rare.
Father and son, clad in magnificent robes of crimson, were the principal celebrants at an anachronistic service celebrating what should by rights be a long-forgotten chivalric order, the Order of the Bath.
The Order originated in the eighth century, and the name is taken from the ritual washing that was undertaken by gentlemen in preparation for the conferment of knighthood.
William was installed Friday as Great Master, a role he inherited from his father, who was ceremonially handing it on at the service.
It's hard to put your finger on exactly what look was pasted onto William's face as he made his way through Westminster Cathedral, but suffice to say: He didn't look especially thrilled by the honor.
One friend of the prince told the Daily Beast, 'This is exactly the kind of medieval cosplay William thinks is ridiculous. He understands and respects tradition, but this kind of event is hardly telegraphing a monarchy which is modern and relevant.'
William has made no secret of his desire to be rid of many of the bells and whistles of royal pomp, saying in November last year, 'I can only describe what I'm trying to do and that's trying to do it differently and I'm trying to do it for my generation. I'm doing it with maybe a smaller r in the royal.'
A source close to William, when asked, dismissed suggestions that the Prince of Wales had reservations about the Order of the Bath service.

Prince William's Hottest Photos Over the Years

For anyone who has been following the royal family for decades, Prince William has grown up before the public's eyes. His tiny debut as the second in line to the throne began on the steps of St. Mary's Hospital in London on June 21, 1982, with Princess Diana proudly (but shyly) sharing her firstborn child with the world as Prince Charles adoringly looked on. The new dad quipped to the press at the time, 'He has the good fortune not to look like me,' per People. Over the years, the Duke of Cambridge became a teen heartthrob and many young adults rushed to get their applications in at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland when they heard he would be attending. Who wouldn't want the opportunity to date a prince? But of course, he met his match in Kate Middleton, who won his heart over pretty quickly — even if they started as just friends. Previously, a study was conducted, per Pubity, that claimed William was 'declared the sexiest man alive,' specifically named the 'sexiest bald man of the year.' In honor of that, let's take a look back at all of his hottest moments as a royal — from a student to a father. He's a military man, an avid sports enthusiast, and he knows how to charm women of all ages during official visits. And as he reminded us all with his bicep-flashing vaccine photo earlier this year, the man is a verified hunk. The Duke of Cambridge has come into his own as a senior royal and he's now embracing the role that has been laid out for him since the moment he was born. Check out these sexy snaps from his last year at Eton College to the family man he is today, and let your thirst for the elder royal brother wash over you. A version of this article was originally published in June 2021. More from SheKnows Prince William & Prince Harry's Life in Photos, From Prep School Playmates to Feuding Royals Best of SheKnows Amanda Bynes, & More Celebrities Who Joined OnlyFans Over the Years Every Woman Prince William Was Rumored To Have Dated Before Marrying Kate Middleton 17 Movies & TV Shows That Educate About the History of American Slavery Prince William is known for many things, including his love for skiing. He's been skiing for decades, as seen with his papa in 2004. He and Kate Middleton have also taken his kids skiing since they both are obsessed with it, per Hello Magazine. During his time at St. Andrews University, Prince William originally enrolled to study Art History but quickly changed it to Geography, per Hello. The teen heartthrob was the apple of everyone's eye. Everyone, from the paparazzi to his fellow classmates, wanted to know more about Prince William. According to Hello! Magazine, William's University friends would use the code name 'Steve' when referring to him to avoid unwanted attention. Prince William loves the great outdoors and everything to do with hands-on activities. According to Reader's Digest, he's an avid surfer and has been to multiple surfing charity events over the years. After taking a gap year, Prince William went to college at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, which saw a 44% rise in applications after they knew the royal was attending. Prince William has always had a soft spot for children. Like his mother Princess Diana, he frequently visits children's hospitals to see the children in need. Prince William and Prince Harry organized a 10th anniversary memorial for their mother, Princess Diana, at the Guards' Chapel in London. They will again honor her legacy with a commissioned statue unveiling on July 1, 2021. It's no secret that Prince William is an Aston Villa football fan (soccer to those of us in the U.S.), so sharing his love of the game with students at St. Aidans primary school in Blackburn was no surprise. He's now president of The Football Association, and we've even seen Prince George at a few matches. Military careers are very common in the royal family and Prince William served in both the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. This was a training session for his two-month attachment with the Royal Navy at Britannia Royal Naval College in 2008. The couple got engaged in Kenya in October 2010, but waited until November to make the official announcement. They posed for the media at St. James's Palace in London with Prince William looking lovingly at his future bride, Kate Middleton. Queen Elizabeth was a proud grandmother when she made an official visit to the Royal Air Force while Prince Wiliam was serving. He was on active duty as a flight lieutenant, and then as a helicopter pilot from 2009 until 2013. Prince William and Kate shared a smooch on the balcony at Buckingham Palace after their wedding in London, England, on Friday, April 29, 2011. It was a fairy-tale day for the couple as the entire world watched them get married. Shortly after their wedding, Prince William and Kate enjoyed a U.S. tour that included a fancy night out on the town at the BAFTA Brits to Watch dinner in Los Angeles. A prince always looks good in a tux and his bride looked stunning in a lavender evening gown accented with a sparkling silver belt. Prince William does have an interest in medicine as the president of the Royal Marsden National Health Service Foundation Trust. In his charitable work, he was able to observe a breast reconstruction surgery on a patient to see how the NHS is helping U.K. citizens. Prince William is known as a 'defensive' and 'controlled' polo player, according to Hello. Polo is known as the 'sport of kings,' so the field is the perfect place for the Duke of Cambridge to hone his monarchy skills. The Trooping of the Colour honors the Queen's birthday every year, but 2013 was a special year. Not only did Prince George steal the show, but the royals also proudly dressed in their military uniforms and watched the Royal Air Force flow over Buckingham Palace. Despite the current family feud, this photo shows a happier time in the royal family as the brothers came together on Prince Harry's wedding day to Meghan Markle. They both look sharp in their uniforms as they make their way to Windsor Castle on May 19, 2018. If there's one thing that comes with his senior royal role, it's honoring traditions of the monarchy. On June 17, 2019, Dutch, Spanish and British royals gathered for the Garter service, the oldest and most senior Order of Chivalry, at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle. The Royal Box at Wimbledon has been around since 1922 and can hold up to 74 guests and dress code is described as 'smart,' per the official event website. Prince William last attended in 2019 when he watched the men's singles final between Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer. There's nothing sweeter than mom and dad taking the kids to their first day of school at Thomas's Battersea Prep School in London. Prince George and Prince Charlotte got the best escorts to kick of a brand new school year in 2019. Prince William got to kick back and have some fun with Kate after speaking to small business owners in the tourism industry, who were affected by the pandemic. After the visit, the couple played a competitive round of carnival games on Barry Island in South Wales. Like his gorgeous wife Kate Middleton, Prince William always arrives in style, often rocking sleek looks for red carpet events. He looked particularly dashing at the 2020 BAFTAs. While they are supposed to stay neutral when it comes to politics, the royals do take the time to greet world leaders like they recently did at the G7 summit. Prince William and Kate enjoyed the company of President Emmanuel Macron and wife Brigitte at the Eden Project in Cornwall, England. Prince William looked quite regal during the St. Patrick's Day Parade in 2022. Back in 2016, during the same parade celebration, he broke royal protocol by handing out gifts, per GoodtoKnow. This century-long tradition was usually done by female royals, but like his mother Princess Diana, William wanted to do it his way to help people. When the royals wear casual wear, they always look so good. During their Caribbean tour in 2022, Prince William and Kate Middleton looked like something out of an action movie while sightseeing throughout Belieze. Prince William was full of pride and passion when he was delivering his speech at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. We loved his loving speech to his grandmother, discussing how they share a love for the environment and optimism.

Meghan Markle, Prince Harry leaving the Royal Family: A full timeline

(NewsNation) — It has been more than five years since Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, announced they would be stepping down from their royal duties. But what caused that decision, and what has the couple been up to since? Here is the full timeline of their departure and what happened following it: January 8, 2020: Markle and Harry use Instagram to announce that they will be stepping down from their roles as senior royals. The post says: 'After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as 'senior' members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen. It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuining our honour our duty to the Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages.' They also revealed a new website that shows how they plan to distance themselves from the Royal Family. That included: Engaging with grassroots media organizations and young, up-and-coming journalists Inviting specialist media to certain events to give greater access to their cause-driven activities Providing access to credible outlets that are focused on objective news reporting Continuing to share information with the public through their official communications channels No longer being in the Royal Rota system There were reports that the Royal Family didn't know about the couple's decision beforehand. BBC News correspondent Jonny Dymond tweeted, 'BBC understands that no other member of the Royal Family was consulted before Harry and Meghan issued their personal statement tonight. The Palace is understood to be 'disappointed.'' Princess Kate pulls out of Royal Ascot appearance last minute Then, Buckingham Palace released a statement, saying, 'Discussion with The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are at an early stage. We understand the desire to take a different approach, but these are complicated issues that will take time to work through.' January 9, 2020: A source tells US Weekly that Prince William was 'blindsided' by Harry and Markle's decision. 'William is incredibly hurt, but at the same time, he has his own family to focus on and is trying to move forward with his life,' the source said. Many other sources told the Daily Mail that the Queen and the rest of the Royal Family were 'deeply disappointed' by the news. One source said, 'The level of deceit has been staggering and everyone from the top of the royal household to the bottom feels like they have been stabbed in the back.' Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo drama over Bluebird Cafe photos denied It is then reported that Harry tried meeting with Queen Elizabeth about the couple's plans, but was denied by her staff. According to the Evening Standard, Harry 'originally contacted Prince Charles about spending more time in Canada and America just before Christmas,' even asking for a 'summit with the Queen at Sandringham.' It is said that Queen Elizabeth agreed to the meeting, but it was blocked by her staff. January 11, 2020: A source tells US Weekly that Markle and Harry had to make their announcement when they did because The Sun had allegedly found out it was coming and was going to leak it. The source claimed, 'It was the paper's front page hours before the official announcement, so Harry and Meghan technically didn't beat them to it.' January 12, 2020: According to The Sunday Times, Harry told a friend, 'I've put my arm around my brother all our lives, and I can't do that anymore; we're separate entities. All we can do, and all I can do, is try and support them and hope that the time comes when we're all singing from the same page. I want everyone to play on the team.' January 13, 2020: Harry and William issue a joint statement through their spokespeople. That statement reads: 'Despite clear denials, a false story ran in a UK newspaper today speculating about the relationship between The Duke of Sussex and The Duke of Cambridge. For brothers who care so deeply about the issues surrounding mental health, the use of inflammatory language in this way is offensive and potentially harmful.' Later, Harry revealed that he had no idea that statement was being made. He said, 'I couldn't believe it. No one had asked me. No one had asked my permission to put my name to a statement like that… within four hours, they were happy to lie to protect my brother, and yet, for three years, they were never willing to tell the truth to us.' After that joint statement, Queen Elizabeth released her first official statement, saying, in part, 'My family and I are entirely supportive of Harry and Meghan's desire to create a new life as a young family. Although we would have preferred them to remain full-time working Members of the Royal Family, we respect and understand their wish to live a more independent life…' The statement ended with, 'These are complex matters for my family to resolve, and there is some more work to be done, but I have asked for final decisions to be reached in the coming days.' January 18, 2020: The Queen releases a statement saying that she had come to an agreement with the couple and 'Harry, Meghan, and Archie will always be much-loved members of the family.' She also addressed the scrutiny that the couple had received and thanked them 'for all their dedicated work across this country, the Commonwealth and beyond…' Terry Moran comes out on top after being axed by ABC The agreement reportedly involved Harry and Markle giving up their royal titles, no longer receiving public funds and paying back the country for their Frogmore Cottage renovations. They also couldn't represent the Queen and had to start paying rent on their cottage. That agreement was only set to last a year, according to a source, and then it would be revisited. February 22, 2020: The Queen decides in an order that Markle and Harry can no longer use the word 'royal' in their branding, which meant their website and Instagram names would have to be changed. In response, Markel and Harry said: 'While there is not any jurisdiction by The Monarchy or Cabinet Office over the use of the word 'Royal' overseas, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex do not intend to use 'Sussex Royal' or any iteration of the word 'Royal' in any territory (either within the U.K. or otherwise) when the transition occurs Spring 2020.' 'The trademark applications that had been filed as protective measures and that reflected the same standard trademarking requests as done for The Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been removed.' March 3, 2020: Harry and Queen Elizabeth meet for a 4-hour conversation where the Queen reportedly offers the couple the chance to come back if they ever change their minds. March 9, 2020: Markle and Harry attend Commonwealth Day, which will be their last royal event before they step down from their royal duties. March 27, 2020: Markle and Harry moved to Los Angeles after briefly living in Canada. Harry later spoke with Oprah about their time in Canada, saying, 'When we were in Canada, I had three conversations with my grandmother and two conversations with my father before he stopped taking my calls… I went to all the places which I thought I should go to ask for help. We both did. Separately and together.' Michelle Obama on being 'glad' she didn't have a son: 'He would've been a Barack Obama' March 30, 2020: One day before they officially step down from their royal duties, the couple posts on their @SussexRoyal Instagram account to announce it will no longer be in use. 'While you may not see us here, the work continues… Until then, please take good care of yourselves and one another,' their final post said. July 2020: A few months after officially leaving their royal duties, Markle and Harry moved into a nine-bedroom mansion that was reportedly purchased for $14 million. Anne Burrell gave Bobby Flay a gift that he'll 'have forever' One source told 'They were craving a smaller community and a slower pace — Montecito is very mellow, a charming little town, and the Santa Barbara [area] offers an ideal lifestyle that they're looking forward to.' The couple also announced partnerships with Spotify and Netflix. March 7, 2021: Nearly one year after the couple stepped down from the Royal Family, they sit down with Oprah Winfrey to talk about their time as working royals and what they have experienced since then. During that interview, Meghan revealed that, within the Royal Family, there were 'concerns and conversations about how dark [Archie's] skin might be when he's born.' She also spoke about 'being silenced' by the family, saying she was told to give a 'no comment' on questions that were directed toward her once her relationship with Harry became public. Markle told Winfrey, 'That was really hard to reconcile because it was only once we were married and everything started to really worsen that I came to understand that not only was I not being protected, but that they were willing to lie to protect other members of the family. They weren't willing to tell the truth to protect me and my husband.' June 2 through June 5, 2022: The Queen was celebrated for her 70-year reign with parades, a concert and more. Markle and Harry traveled from their home in California to the United Kingdom for her Jubilee, but they weren't seen in public spending time with immediate family members. On June 3, Harry and Markle attended the service of thanksgiving that honored Queen Elizabeth, and sat in the second row with Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and their husbands.

December 8, 2022: The 'Harry & Meghan' docuseries is released, with the first three episodes focusing on their early relationship and royal life. 'Most of the time that I was in the U.K., I rarely wore color. There was thought in that,' Markle said, saying she didn't want to stand out. Harry also talked about the press, saying they eventually had to take legal action against Associated Newspapers because a private letter that Meghan wrote to her father was published. Markle said that the stress from that situation caused her to have a miscarriage. Harry said, 'I believe my wife suffered a miscarriage because of what the Mail did. I watched the whole thing. Now, do we absolutely know that the miscarriage was created… caused by that? Of course we don't… [but] bearing in mind the stress that caused the lack of sleep and the timing of the pregnancy, how many weeks in she was, I can say from what I saw, that miscarriage was created by what they were trying to do to her.' December 15, 2022: During the last three episodes of the docuseries, Harry claimed that William had a 'terrifying' argument with William and King Charles during the Sandringham Summit. 'It was terrifying to have my brother scream and shout at me, and my father say things that simply weren't true, and my grandmother quietly sit there and sort of take it all in,' Harry said.
