Princess Diana Feared Royal Family Would Destroy Prince William And Prince Harry
Nowadays, royal fans are aware that Prince William and Prince Harry’s relationship has suffered a major rift. However, a former palace employee revealed that Princess Diana was worried that her sons wouldn’t survive life in the royal family.
Following Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ split, the Princess of Wales was concerned that her sons were expected to live up to high expectations and would eventually crack under pressure.
Princess Diana’s dream analyst, Joan Hanger, told New Idea that the late royal predicted her sons would become unhappy with their lives in the royal family. “She did have worries about the boys, whether they’d be able to work with the protocol of the palace,” she explained.
“She said it’s not easy to do that. She’d say little things like that now and then. She was giving them as much advice as she could, but she had that on her mind a lot.”
As heir to the throne, Diana was worried Prince William wouldn’t be able to handle the pressure. “She worried about William becoming king one day, and what really saddened her was that she couldn’t talk about it with Charles because she really didn't have much say in the boys’ upbringing after the divorce,” Joan said.
“Only perhaps when she was with them, and even then, the Queen Mother cut the time they spent together short over the years before she died.”
Hanger revealed that Princess Diana often reached out to her to voice her doubts about how Prince Harry and Prince William were being raised. “She was nervous about William handling it because he’d have to follow these rules, and [have] to conform to the protocol,” the dream analyst recalled.
“William had such a role that he had to play that was already programmed for him. Up until three weeks before her death, we were still talking. She would ring me on the weekends because that’s when she’d be very lonely.”
Nowadays, the brothers aren’t even living on the same continent. While Prince William is fulfilling his royal duties in the UK, Prince Harry and his family have moved to California.
