Insights from Chapter 2

#1

The media has been told that Harry did not like Meghan’s prima donna tactics to conceal the birth of their son in May 2019. Meanwhile, the Queen, Prince Philip, Charles, and Camilla all visited the baby within hours.

#2

The christening of Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was a private ceremony held on 6 July 2019 by the Archbishop of Canterbury in the Private Chapel at Windsor Castle. The names of the godparents were not released, in keeping with the couple’s wishes.

#3

The future king’s smile was noted to be wry and curious when he turned up for his nephew’s christening in the Queen’s Private Chapel at Windsor, and the family photograph that followed in the formality of the Green Drawing Room was noted for its strange pose.

#4

The prince learned from his grandmother how the institution of the crown was something to be upheld and respected, and how one might have to fight to preserve it. He was particularly impressed by the stories she told him about her own early years on the throne.

#5

The prince’s conversations in the Oak Room helped turn the fragile schoolboy heading for a breakdown into a tough young man who would later be compared to a nightclub bouncer protecting the standards of and entry to his highly exclusive royal club.

#6

The three British names on whom speculation centered were tennis star Serena Williams, film star George Clooney, and one or the other of the political couple, ex-President Barack and Michelle Obama.
Insights from Chapter 3

#1

The future King Charles III was approached by his family in the late 1970s to get married. He was told that a man should sow his wild oats and have as many affairs as he can before settling down. But for a wife, he should choose a suitable, attractive, and sweet-charactered girl before she has met anyone else she might fall for.

#2

The future king would have to find another suitable girl. But in the meantime, he had met and fallen in love with Camilla Parker Bowles, a characterful lady noted for her sheer brass nerve.

#3

The prince’s first partner, Camilla Shand, was not a virgin, but she did come from respectable upper-middle-class county stock. She liked the prospect of some fun with Prince Charles for his own sake.
