Prince Harry's dreaded reckoning with royalty is set to fill shelves from January 10th.
None of the royals expect good news.
An insider has now revealed that Prince William in particular is “horrified” by Prince Harry’s behavior and has also become much clearer.
London – The sons of King Charles III.
(74) are on different life paths.
Even if their childhood and youth will always connect them, the relationship has cooled down noticeably.
The announcement of Prince Harry's (38) memoirs in particular is not well received by Prince William (40), since "Spare" is likely to have a major impact on the senior royals.
A palace insider
now reveals the extent of the heir apparent's "horror" to the

King Charles had "had a safe and dignified start to his reign," the source observed, rejecting dire predictions by some pundits that he would not be able to assume Queen Elizabeth II's responsibilities.
Also, it no longer seems unlikely for Charles III to win the public's affection.
But it doesn't stop with praise.
Even as a toddler, Prince William behaved terribly
As the future heir to the throne, Prince William was under scrutiny from an early age.
He wasn't always noticed as a little sunshine.
On the contrary.
In the book “Palace Papers.
The Windsors, the power and the truth,” writes author Tina Brown of how terribly the current Prince of Wales behaved as a toddler.
"By the time he was four, he had a nasty habit of yelling at his nanny, Barbara Barnes, 'Nobody's going to tell me what to do!
When I am king, I will have you punished.'”
Is Prince William on Prince Harry's literary hit list?
"However, the year ahead will bring further challenges as he cements his place in the life of the nation as its head of state."
Referring to the release of Prince Harry's book, he stressed that it was a "major concern" for the company that "is already having an impact on the upper echelons of the royal family".
Heffer continued:
"The Prince of Wales is said to be appalled at his brother's general behavior and that the book will be published at all".

However, there is no doubt that he has the interests of the royal family in mind when he laments the duke's behavior, the source said, although he previously listed the character flaws.
Experts previously thought that Camilla (75) had the most to fear from Prince Harry's memoirs, but now Prince William seems to be a potential target.
