Palace Confidential

Why Charles could be trying to coax Harry back into The Firm, but there’ll never be room for Andrew


Listen Later

In an essay on the environment published this week, Prince Charles praised not only his late father but both of his sons for their commitment to green issues.

It might seem like a small thing, but the Daily Mail’s Royal Editor Rebecca English says it is ‘very notable’, adding: ‘I don’t think that’s a coincidence. Relationships with Harry are still really poor [but] I do think this is an olive branch to his younger son to show that he is still loved and he is still valued. How that will be received is anyone’s guess.’

There is likely to be less enthusiasm in rehabilitating the Duke of York, however. This week his lawyers’ attempts to get a US judge to strike out a civil case brought against him were, at the time of recording, looking unlikely to succeed. The case comes from Virginia Giuffre, who accuses the prince of sexual abuse when she was 17, he has denied all claims against him.
