Explosive Claims: Prince Harry Is Using His Kids to Emotionally 'Blackmail' King Charles for Security 'Leverage' Amid Rising Extremist Dangers
Prince Harry is allegedly using his children, Princess Lilibet and Prince Archie, as a form of "emotional blackmail" against their estranged grandfather, King Charles III.
Pals of the monarch spilled to The Daily Beast that the Duke of Sussex is exerting this "nefarious tactic" to convince his father that the Sussex family needs top-of-the-line security in the U.K. or His Majesty will never meet his grandkids again.
"Harry has lost his security case in court and is now trying the emotional blackmail route to get what he wants instead, cynically using the threat of Archie and Lilibet never meeting their grandfather again as a tactic to coerce the king into overruling RAVEC," a friend of Charles III shared.
A reported main concern the fiery-haired prince is frightened over is "neo-Nazi extremists" in Britain, as they have allegedly placed Harry, Meghan Markle and family, "in their sights." Not everyone is convinced of the threat...
"The idea that the security forces are going to allow the Sussexes to be attacked by an acid-throwing or knife-wielding maniac on British soil is absurd, and Harry knows it," the pal continued. "Using it as leverage, as a reason to withhold his kids from their grandfather, is beyond contempt. Charles is being treated for very serious cancer, so even if he could find the time, he cannot just fly to Los Angeles at the drop of a hat, like Harry can — and actually did earlier this year — in the other direction."
The longtime friend of the monarch then pondered: "I wonder, when they are older, how those kids will feel about being denied a meaningful relationship with the King of England. To deprive them of that experience, with all its importance and heritage, seems very misguided. Of course, he wants to see them, but if you force Charles to choose between his duty to the Crown and his personal feelings, he will choose the Crown every time — just as his mother did."
It would seem that the fifth in line to the throne is also just as unmovable and adamant when it comes to his commands not being met.
"When Harry was being kicked out of Frogmore Cottage, one of his lines was that Charles would never see the kids again. This is him going public with that threat," a former friend of Harry's and current pal of Prince William's told an outlet.
However, when it was pointed out to the friend that Harry never mentioned his kids in that context in the sit-down, they replied: "It was clearly implied. This really isn’t about Meghan, who has no intention of ever coming back to England again."
King Charles reportedly has not seen his Sussex grandchildren since the late Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee in June 2022, three months before she died and the King acceded to the throne. On that day, Archie and Lilibet automatically became a prince and princess.
