Tensions within the royal family have escalated as the Prince of Wales strategizes to remove the Duke and Duchess of Sussex from their royal roles, a recent report reveals.
As the heir to the throne, the Prince of Wales is reportedly adamant that his brother has no place in the monarchy, leading to a breakdown in communication between them.
Sources close to the royal family indicate that the Prince of Wales is actively preparing for his future reign and envisions a royal family without the Sussexes playing a prominent role.
Speculation suggests that readmitting the Sussexes into the fold would be unwise, with suggestions that they should accept a more peripheral position within the monarchy indefinitely.
Despite the rift, there remains a glimmer of hope for reconciliation between the Duke and the future king.
The Prince of Wales, as reported by the Express, remains resolute in his stance against welcoming back the Sussexes, believing it would quell the ongoing media frenzy surrounding the family.
Expressing doubt in the Sussexes’ ability to make a significant impact, the Prince of Wales seems convinced that they have exhausted their influence within the royal circle.
While efforts are being made by an elder relative, likely the king, to mend the strained relationship with the Duke, familial ties appear to be the primary driving force behind this endeavor.
In a significant turn of events in 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex relinquished their active roles within the royal family, triggering a series of public criticisms directed at the monarchy.
Their public statements and actions post-resignation have led to a decline in their popularity among the British public.
Recent gestures, such as the Duke reaching out to his father on his 75th birthday and a heartfelt video message featuring their children, hint at a possible thaw in relations between the Sussexes and the royal family.
The Duchess’ phone call to the king on his birthday could mark a pivotal moment in the ongoing efforts to mend fences.
Efforts to broker peace between the royal family and the Sussexes have faced obstacles, notably exacerbated by the fallout from Omid Scobie’s controversial book, “Endgame.”
The aftermath of the book’s revelations has further complicated the already delicate negotiations between the two parties.
