A royal specialist has recently voiced support for the Prince of Wales’ decision to advise the Duke of Sussex against rushing into marriage with the Duchess of Sussex.

The Prince of Wales, as revealed in the Duke of Sussex’s explosive memoir Spare, intervened to prevent the Duke from proposing, fearing that the relationship was progressing too hastily.

The royal expert, former BBC correspondent Jenny Bond, commended the Prince of Wales’ intervention, describing it as well-intentioned.

Drawing parallels to other successful royal marriages, such as that of Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, Bond highlighted the importance of a thorough courtship before entering into marriage within the royal family.

Bond noted the enduring happiness in the marriage of Prince Edward and Sophie, emphasizing the value of taking time to nurture a relationship.

She suggested that the Prince of Wales may have been influenced by his own experiences, considering the slow-burn romance he shared with the late Princess of Wales.

During an appearance on The Sun’s royal exclusive show, Jenny Bond discussed how the Princess of Wales was afforded a decade to acclimate to royal life before her marriage.

In contrast, the Duke of Sussex proposed to the Duchess of Sussex relatively early in their relationship, disregarding warnings from his brother.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex eventually tied the knot in a lavish royal wedding at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, following a reception at Frogmore House hosted by the Prince of Wales.

However, the wedding preparations reportedly strained the relationship between the Duke of Sussex and his brother, as detailed in the Duke’s memoir.
