Princess Anne is giving her older brother, King Charles, a good talk. The Princess Royal is advocating for King Charles to reconnect with his son, Prince Harry after the Duke pleaded for reconciliation.
“The news that her beloved brother’s cancer is incurable has forced her to face a devastating reality – there’s a sense of urgency and time’s running out,” a source dished to Woman’s Day. In a bombshell BBC interview, Prince Harry wanted to make things up with his father after he confessed, “I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point in continuing to fight anymore. Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has.”
Princess Anne is said to be a sound ear for her brother and is placing ultimatums in front of him. “As tough as it’s been, Anne and Charles have been having serious discussions about his final wishes, all of which she has every intention of keeping – and it’s Anne that’s urging the King to pursue one in particular that right now appears to be impossible – finding a way to end this out-of-control feud between his sons, even if it’s not in his lifetime.”

It’s no secret that Charles and Anne’s trust goes beyond their royal duties. “Both of them have had nothing but respect and affection for her from the day they were toddlers,” the source continued. “Anne’s pragmatic, no-drama approach, which not unlike their late father’s, Prince Philip, is a potential bridge to reconcile Harry and William.”
Royal insider Camilla Tominey previously reported that King Charles’ cancer is incurable after he allegedly refused treatment. “The talk now is that he may die ‘with’ cancer, but not ‘of’ cancer following a rigorous treatment program,” she revealed in The Telegraph. She also confirmed that King Charles’ 80th anniversary plans in 2028 are “tentative” due to his ailing health.
However, a royal aide said King Charles‘s health is on the up. He is dealing “incredibly well” with cancer, the anonymous insider told The Telegraph. “The thing you learn about this illness is that you just manage it and that’s what he does. Medical science has made incredible advances and I genuinely see no difference in him. As long as you just do what the doctors say, just live your life as normal as possible… that’s exactly what he is doing.”
No matter what happens to the current Monarch, it doesn’t seem like William will back down from his feud with his brother. “It’s no secret William wants Harry more harshly dealt with. He thinks he has betrayed the family from top to bottom, which is the ultimate Windsor crime. It wouldn’t take much to provoke him to flex his muscles when he is king,” a palace insider told The Daily Beast.
