King Charles is “waiting for Harry and Meghan to destroy themselves” according to David Starkey.
The historian spoke to Esther McVey and Philip Davies on GB News as he looked back at a tumultuous year for the Royal Family which saw the death of Queen Elizabeth and the controversial release of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix documentary.
In the documentary, Harry accused his father, now the King, of saying untrue things when the Queen gathered them together at Sandringham in January 2020 in a bid to solve the Megxit crisis.
Harry also claimed his brother’s office, Kensington Palace, traded negative stories just like his father’s had in the past, saying it was “heart-breaking” to see something he and William promised they would “never ever do” taking place.
Starkey told GB News: “I don’t think they matter much, look at the opinion polls today. I mean, a near majority of people not only say they don’t much like them, but they actually want them stripped of their titles.
“With every passing day, I think with every desperate attempt at taking a little molehill of grievance and trying to turn it into a vast, vast Himalayas of resentment, they become less relevant.
“What I think Charles is doing is actually playing a rather clever long game. What I would guess he is doing is waiting for them to destroy themselves. So he doesn’t actually need to do anything very dramatic.
“He’s just letting events take their course, which I think is a very wise thing to do.”
