CELEBRITYPrince Harry and Meghan Markle ‘in tears’ when King Charles announced new honour for Prince William…” “I’m empty-handed now.”
Prince Harry got emotional when King Charles announced a new honour for his older brother Prince William this week while the Duke of Sussex was in London for the Invictus Games 10th anniversary, claims a royal expert.
The Duke of Sussex returned to the United Kingdom this week for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. Shortly after touching down in London, it was revealed that King Charles was too busy to meet with his son, despite weeks of speculation that they could be meeting.
And then, just mere hours after it was confirmed that King Charles would not be meeting with Prince Harry, Buckingham Palace announced that the King would hand the Prince of Wales a military honour long thought to be destined for the Duke of Sussex. Prince William is now colonel-in-chief of the Army Air Corp – the regiment Prince Harry served with in Afghanistan.

Royal expert and author Tom Quinn exclusively told The Mirror: “King Charles’ announcement that Prince Harry is being stripped of his role as Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps is a real kick in the teeth for the son who always felt marginalised and underrated. What makes it much worse is that the role is being given to the very man who Harry sees as the cause of so many of his problems – his brother. And the announcement was deliberately made during Harry’s brief visit to the UK to have maximum impact – it shows Harry that he really is no longer welcome.”
