In 1999, Charles and Camilla made their romance public two years after Princess Diana's death, and in 2005 they had a very grand wedding at Windsor Castle, which was attended by both Prince Harry and Prince William. But according to a report by The Mirror on April 10, in fact, before Charles married Camilla, Prince Harry and Prince William did not support him in doing so.
Last year, Prince Harry revealed in his memoir "Spare" that both he and his brother Prince William were very distressed by the idea of their father remarrying and begged him to cancel the "unnecessary" wedding.
In this regard, Prince Harry bluntly said in an interview with Anderson Cooper, "We all feel that they don't need to get married, after all, it will only do more harm than good," "Not to mention that they are already together, and that's enough." ”
At the same time, Prince Harry also told Anderson, "If you don't have to, then why go so far?" We also want him to be happy, and we see that he is happy with her, and that's it. ”
In 1995, Princess Diana called Camilla "the third person in my marriage" in an interview with Panorama, and because of this, Prince Harry has always held a grudge against his stepmother, and later mercilessly attacked Camilla as a "villain" in his memoirs.
Prince Harry believes that Camilla is trying to improve her image in the public eye by marrying his father Charles, writing in the book, "She's the bad guy, she's the third party in their marriage, she just needs to restore her image." ”
In addition, Prince Harry also talked about his relationship with his stepmother Camilla in his memoirs, revealing that he had promised Charles that he and Prince William would welcome Camilla into their family, but only if Charles agreed to a request from them.
Prince Harry recalled, "William and I promised Dad that we would welcome Camilla into our family, and the only thing we asked in return was that he would not marry Camilla. "We begged Dad not to remarry, because weddings are bound to be controversial and irritate the media. ”
Harry went on to share, "We say we support Camilla, but please don't marry her. "All you have to do is be together, Dad. ”
At the same time, Prince Harry also admitted that Camilla was a key factor in the breakdown of his parents' marriage, explaining, "It means that she has nothing to do with the loss of our mother, but we also understand that she, like everyone else, is trapped in the torrent of this incident." "We didn't blame her, in fact, we'd love to forgive her as long as she could make Dad happy. ”
However, it is precisely because of the relentless criticism of Camilla that Prince Harry has made it even more difficult for him to move forward after quitting the royal family. Although after King Charles III suffered from cancer, Prince Harry privately said that he wanted to share the royal responsibilities for his father, but Charles refused, and it is difficult to say that it has nothing to do with Camilla.
As for Prince William, his relationship with his stepmother Camilla has improved a lot, and the two are often photographed talking and laughing when they attend public events together, and they seem to be quite close.
