Does Prince William really need Prince Harry to function as a king? That’s what a lot of royal fans and critics on both sides of the pond can’t help to wonder. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
Does Prince William Really ‘Need’ Prince Harry To Function As King?
Everyone seems to be asking the same question: does William and the media really need Harry to be by his brother’s side?
After all, Charles never needed Andrew or Edward to do his work as POW yet William needs Harry. Harry did all the work the heir to the throne was supposed to do. Now that Harry has been gone, William still can’t function properly without Harry. Or not?
Of course, the internet certainly did have a lot to say about the matter. Some even commented with, “It’s not unusual that William wants that support. It’s that he has to treat people better to get it. It doesn’t just come automatically with the title and palaces.”
“You can’t treat your brother and his wife like enemies and also expect them to stay.”
Another critic wrote, “The only people who unreservedly support William are the Middletons and they are far too insular. I think their behaviour has encouraged William’s paranoid tendencies.”
What’s Next For Prince William And Prince Harry?
“Caught between the institution and a family so intent on their upward social mobility, William again, is deeply trapped. He betrayed his only brother who could have helped him.”
And then there was this comment as well: “Charles and Anne are close, and he relies on her, sure. But with William it seems different, almost like Harry is his keeper.”
“At least that’s the vibe I get from stories. The way they talk about William not having Harry around now has an undercurrent of panic to it, as if William is not meant to ascend to the throne without him.”
So far Buckingham Palace has not made any comments about the matter yet although at this point it’s doubtful that anything will be said.
