King Charles ensures no ‘awkward’ encounter between Kate, William and Andrew<\/p>\n
King Charles is currently enjoying a quiet and peacful summer break at Balmoral Castle and made some special arrangements for Prince William and Kate Middleton.<\/p>\n
The 76-year-old monarch has reportedly made a strategic move to ensure the Prince and Princess of Wales do not get to see the disgraced Duke of York, Prince Andrew at his vacation home in Scotland. <\/p>\n
Charles officially kicked off his summer break at Balmoral earlier this week with the reports confirming Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson has also joined the King shortly after. <\/p>\n
As part of a long-standing tradition, other members of the royal family including the future king and Queen will likely to join his majesty at the crown estate. <\/p>\n
However, the king has ensured that all the visits at Balmoral are scheduled so carefully to avoid William and Andrew’s encounter – given that their relationship is “incredibly strained” <\/p>\n
Speaking to Mirror, the Royal expert Jennie Bond noted, “The visits by various members of the family are carefully coordinated” <\/p>\n
She continued, “for example, when the Duchess of York was invited there in the past, it was deliberately timed to avoid her running into Prince Philip.” <\/p>\n
“Similarly, I rather expect that Andrew’s stay will not coincide with William and Catherine’s,” she noted.<\/p>\n
It is pertinent to mention, Prince William’s resentment towards his uncle is believed to have increased since the release of Andrew Lownie’s biography The Rise and Fall of the House of York.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The scathing biography unearthed dark sides of Andrew’s life – bringing back huge disgrace to the royal family.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"King Charles ensures no ‘awkward’ encounter between Kate, William and Andrew King Charles is currently enjoying a quiet…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":368047,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,533,2832,532,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-368046","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-kate-middleton","12":"tag-prince-of-wales","13":"tag-prince-william","14":"tag-princess-of-wales","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-uk-royal-family","18":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115079927978675531","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/368046","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=368046"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/368046\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/368047"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=368046"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=368046"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=368046"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
