What should Charles and William do?

[FunsTheWord]

Where can the royal family go from here? What do you think Charles, Camilla, Kate and William should do?

Can they trust the Sussexes ever again? Probably not.

Where do the family go from here and how do they get there? Can this situation be resolved where everyone is happy or at least content?

Lots of people are very angry with Harry now but how do they and those who are Harry fans want the King to handle this?

That's entirely up to them.

Like with any family fall out, you don't need advice and speculation from absolute strangers.

Ignore H&M and carry on as normal.

@Coucous How were they underhanded? That is, not referring to Harry's unverified allegations?

I don't think Harry would ever admit that, but he may admit he was less than truthful, especially with the "racism" issue.
Hopefully the royals can admit mistakes as well. It must be possible to find a way forward, and I genuinely hope they do.

What they’re doing now. Ignoring him.

I think it's a near impossible situation.

Suspect Charles and William would both like to patch things up, but doubt they are prepared to agree to Harry's demands. And Harry is in no place where he is genuinely prepared to shoulder any blame (or hear any criticism of his wife).

Plus who on earth would trust that Harry won't come straight out and publish 'his truth' about what is said or discussed.

While no doubt deeply miserable about the way this is all panning out, and worried about his son, Charles's instincts are probably to just let things be for now. Invite them to the Coronation in the same way that they were to the Jubilee. Say nothing, see if it blows over. Harry has made some threats, but what has he actually got?

Suspect zero chance that they're going to get any role in the RF anytime soon and I doubt the titles for A and L will be settled either.

All the talk of wanting reconciliation meetings is probably media speculation looking for the next bit of drama. "RF still say nothing" isn't going to get people talking. You only have to look at the comments under the article to see how irate people are on both sides of opinion - and that is what the papers need.

Agree with this. If they respond to this it will continue with every disagreement.

The problem is it is not what H&M did so much as how they did it. Everyone will just have to assume every interaction with them will end up on Netflix or in a book. Bit like chatting with a tabloid journalist!

Maybe the RF should quietly take on board the comments which perhaps do have some sway (only they will know) and lead by example.

They should have a Restorative Conversation, properly prepared and mediated by a professional.
If they are in good faith, this can work well.

I think they should all contact a job coach and consider what if anything they've done gives them requisite experience to apply for jobs in any sector. That would be the best thing for the lot of them.

With Harry, I mean.

I think they’re works apart and think it’s unrealistic to think it can ever be resolved. They are polar opposites as people.

I hope the Royals fo make some changes. The thought of children having such a cold upbringing, coping alone, is heartbreaking. Leaking stories snout your children and siblings like they did has led to this. I hope they learn for future generations but I don’t think there can be any real coming back together of this lot.

Well, you can't argue with someone addled with years of drug abuse with many years of false memories. You can however acknowledge how it must've been hard feeling like you were a "spare", but this isn't something announced to the media. It would be something to discuss in private, though of course harry would want to make money off of it so it's not like they can really go too deep into anything because he'll just sell out everything they say to the highest bidder.

Surely we should be asking Paul Burrell’s view on this. As a noted rock, and expert on how QE2 liked teacups to be arranged, he must surely be the oracle in matters of royal strategy. Where is Burrell in this debate?

It's strange when people like you believe someone who has repeatedly been caught out in lies.

I think that will depend entirely on the role of drugs / substances in Harry's life.

Does he still have that flower shop? Perhaps give Harry floral arrangement tutorials. That's a good skill.

I think accepting that Ripple of Hope award was not great, the nomination noting that they had challenged racism in the royal family. The other stuff is a bit petty on the whole, but that might be a stumbling block.
However, now Harry is saying he never accused them of racism, so who knows.

Family therapy 😬

I think you're right in the long term, but I think it's probably far too soon.

The book is only just out, Netflix wasn't exactly long ago, and Harry is giving interviews left, right and centre and making some pretty big demands. I don't see how it could happen at this point.

Also, I think there are more books and tv shows to come, so there may be more "revelations".

This. And maybe, in the general run of things, do something actually useful for the country.

There are two separate issues. One is them as a family, what they do is completely their affair ( no pun intended).

The other side is the Constitutional and Public. They are not working Royals, or at least, not working for the betterment of Britain and the Commonwealth, and so should not have courtesy titles, or take part in State Occasions.

Im afraid that Charles’ vacillation is another argument for skipping a generation, although that would have to be done with his consent, which will never happen.

Suspect Charles and William would both like to patch things up, but doubt they are prepared to agree to Harry's demands. And Harry is in no place where he is genuinely prepared to shoulder any blame (or hear any criticism of his wife).

I doubt William wants anything to do with him after this book, or Charles. They probably want to cut contact but it’ll make Harry rage even more and release even more private information.
