Harry has pulled out the pin. The royals will have to watch how they respond given the evidence Harry may have at his disposal.

Much of the UK media will portray this eviction as a righteous act by a strong king. It’s anything but. Instead of building bridges the head of state is torching them. The banishment of his son is cruel, unnecessary and diminishes Charles.

An extraordinary allegation that has received zero coverage. Has anyone asked Kensington Palace what action - if any - was taken by Prince William?

The terms of Harry and Meghan’s exit were cruel. The institution made a mistake and will pay a price over time. But the royals don’t see it –in part, because much of the media insist, incessantly, that the blame lies with the Sussexes and Charles and William are beyond reproach.

A pilloried prince has exposed criminality. The media should thank Harry and many of them should reflect on their relentlessly skewed coverage of him. The royals failed to back Harry and should reflect on whether their pursuit of positive headlines clouded their judgement.

This is a very serious error of judgement by King Charles and his advisors. He’s abandoned his unifying role and entered the political fray, in a foolish bid to be seen as statesmanlike. History won’t be kind. Someone’s head will roll.
