King Charles has once again made a decisive move, and honestly, I fully support it. Actions have consequences, and it seems Prince Harry is finally learning that lesson the hard way. After years of publicly airing grievances on global platforms, did he really think he would still receive royal privileges? Absolutely not.
The latest development? King Charles has spent over £3 million to purchase an old mill adjacent to the Queen’s private retreat. The reason behind this acquisition is quite simple—someone intended to convert the property into a wedding venue, and Queen Camilla was understandably not thrilled about having strangers celebrating next door every weekend. Can you blame her? What stands out in all of this is that Charles is willing to invest millions to safeguard Camilla’s peace and privacy, yet he has not extended even the smallest gesture, like a guest room, to Harry and Meghan when they visit the UK. And really, why should he? If someone publicly accused my family of racism on Oprah and then published a tell-all book exposing private disputes, I wouldn't be eager to accommodate them either.
This is the fundamental issue with Harry and Meghan—they desire the benefits of royal life without accepting any of the responsibilities. They claim to crave privacy, yet they continuously grant interviews. They sought financial independence, yet reports suggest they are now struggling to maintain it. Their lucrative deals are not panning out as expected—Netflix has been underwhelmed by their content, Spotify cut ties with them, and their foundation is reportedly losing money at an alarming rate. Remember when Harry described life in California as freeing and fulfilling? That narrative is aging poorly. Now, they appear desperate to regain some footing within the royal fold, realizing that life as celebrities without royal duties is far less profitable than they had anticipated.
King Charles, however, is not falling for it. His decision to purchase the mill sends a clear message—he is willing to invest in those who support the monarchy, not those who attack it. Meanwhile, Prince William and Princess Catherine have handled the entire situation with remarkable composure. William has stepped up as a leader, particularly while Catherine has been focusing on her recovery. No public complaints, no dramatic interviews—just unwavering dedication to duty.
Some might argue that Archie and Lilibet deserve to have a relationship with their grandfather. Of course, they do. But whose fault is it that they don’t? Harry and Meghan made the choice to move across the world, to sever ties, and to keep their children at a distance from the royal family. You cannot deliberately alienate your family and then play the victim when relationships deteriorate.
Harry is not some helpless bystander in all of this—he is nearly 40 years old and still playing the role of the victim. He made his choices, and now he must face the consequences. That is what adulthood entails, something he still seems to struggle with. The saddest part is that Harry was once beloved—the fun, relatable royal that people admired and wanted to share a drink with. Now, he has become the family member no one wants at Christmas dinner, all for the sake of being Meghan’s spokesperson. His transformation is nothing short of tragic.
Through it all, King Charles has remained composed. No inflammatory interviews, no public retaliations—just a steadfast commitment to his role and the monarchy’s stability. Meanwhile, reports suggest that Harry and Meghan are now seeking help as their finances dwindle. As my grandmother used to say, “You made your bed, now lie in it.” Perhaps they should have considered the long-term consequences before burning every royal bridge they had.
Despite the drama, the working royals are thriving. Catherine’s resilience in the face of health challenges has been truly inspiring. William’s steady leadership proves why he will one day make an exceptional king. Charles and Camilla continue to serve with grace and purpose. And what have Harry and Meghan contributed? More complaints, more victimhood, and more attempts to capitalize on their royal past while simultaneously claiming they want nothing to do with the monarchy.
I have said it before, and I will say it again—the monarchy is better off without them. The endless drama, the media leaks, the perpetual grievances—it was all draining energy from the real work of the royal family. Now, King Charles can focus on modernizing the institution, guiding William, and being the leader the UK needs.
So yes, Charles spent £3 million to protect his family’s peace and privacy, and I say, “Good for him.” That is what loyalty looks like. That is what love looks like. Perhaps Harry should take note.
