Prince Andrew stepped down from royal duties in 2020 after being accused of assault and having close ties to
Jeffrey Epstein. While King Charles III requested that Andrew leave his royal estate, the Royal Lodge, in 2023, the Duke of York has yet to vacate the premises.
Charles' inability to kick Andrew out or to stop
Prince Harry's tell-alls doesn't sit well with his eldest son, the insider dished. "William was right about Andrew, and he is right about Harry. Charles is weak," a source close to
Prince William told
The Daily Beast.

While King Charles III is rumored to be planning a meeting with
Prince Harry in honor of
Queen Elizabeth II's death,
Prince William's relationship with his brother was significantly impacted by Harry's memoir,
Spare.
The insider indicated that if Charles and Harry reconcile, it will change the king's dynamic with the Prince of Wales. "Whatever the King does, he will make his relationship with one of his sons worse," the insider noted.

"Reconciliation with Harry will be a provocation to William, who has made it very clear he does not believe Harry can be trusted," the insider continued, as
Prince Harry published private conversations and depicted the monarchy in a negative light in
Spare and other tell-all projects.
