‘Negative influence’: Royal Family warned to ‘keep Prince George away from Prince Harry’
William and Kate have received some blunt parenting advice, with Harry’s former biographer telling them to keep their kids away from him.
Prince William and Princess Catherine have been strongly advised to keep their eldest son, Prince George, away from his uncle, Prince Harry.
The Duke of Sussex’s former biographer, Angela Levin, made the stern warning to the royals in a desperate bid to keep George, the second in line to the throne, from walking a similar path to Harry, The NY Post reports.
“Kate and William are there to help him [George],” Levin told OK Magazine.
“But he needs to be kept away from Harry’s negative influence.”
“George doesn’t have a dysfunctional family, unlike William and Harry growing up, so he should fare better. Kate and William are there to help him,” she added.
In his protocol-shattering memoir Spare, Harry detailed his experience of growing up in the palace as well as his fears about Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis growing up as “spares” to George.
“I still feel a responsibility knowing that out of those three children, at least one will end up like me, the spare. And that hurts, that worries me,” he wrote in his book, referencing William and Kate’s children Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and 5-year-old Prince Louis.
Levin’s comments echo that of royal author Tom Bower, who suggested George will be none the wiser of the true situation between his parents and uncle.
“Kate was the peacemaker between the brothers at the late Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral [in 2021], but after the release of Harry’s book and the Sussexes’ documentary, that’s all over. I really don’t think Kate wants to see Harry again.
“Of course Prince George will be oblivious to all this — Harry will simply be forever marginalised in his memory.”
It is believed that King Charles is the only senior member of the royal family who maintains contact with Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle.
However, their relationship has been massively strained following the release of Spare and its accompanying interviews as Harry unleashed several attacks on his family, accusing them of leaking stories to the press, as well as mistreating his wife.
