Prince Charles 'at the end of his tether with narcissistic Harry', says royal expert

Fed up Prince Charles is at the “end of his tether” with Harry according to an expert after he shared details about his meeting with The Queen to an American TV host.

The Duke of Sussex paid a surprise visit to his grandmother last week before jetting over to The Netherlands for the Invictus Games.

Afterwards he told America’s Today host Hoda Kotb all about the visit and infuriated people back in Britain as he claimed he was “protecting” his grandmother, who turns 96 today.

Royal expert Robert Jobson told GB News the glib comment would not have gone down well with his father.

He added: “Prince Charles has reached the end of his tether, they haven't been in contact and had they have started blurting about that meeting, that would have been the end of it.

“It’s narcissism at the very extreme…this is the guy who hasn’t seen his grandmother for a couple of years, well for a while since the funeral and that was only fleeting.

“I think actions speak louder than words and Prince Charles in particular has been stepping up and supporting his mother with actions.”

Harry, speaking without his wife Meghan by his side, sparked fury by giving a television interview ahead of the monarch’s milestone birthday.

Among the unwelcome presents to his grandmother was the revelation Harry feels he is “protecting her” by ensuring she has the “right people around her”.

Other snippets included mentioning the security issue in his home country, amid an ongoing high court case against the Home Office over his police protection .

He also added he considers the US home - for now.

He said in the interview: “Being with her (The Queen),it was great, it was just so nice to see her, she’s on great form.

“She’s always got a great sense of humour with me and I’m just making sure that she’s protected and got the right people around her.

“Both Meghan and I had tea with her, so it was really nice to catch up with her.

“Home for me now, for the time being, is in the States and it feels that way.

“We’ve been welcomed with open arms and have such a great community up in Santa Barbara.”

The Sussexes moved to Montecito, California, following their decision to step down as senior royals in 2020, saying they wanted a new life of personal and financial freedom.

T he Queen has travelled to her Norfolk estate to stay in her late husband’s former home Wood Farm so she can feel close to him on her birthday.

She was seen being driven out of the castle in a black Range Rover on Wednesday morning.
