Royal Happenings

Agree @Gefn  --- and the Queen is said to have 'trusted' and 'relied' on Sophie Wessex to a greater extent than many in her inner circle, including even the then Duchess of Cornwall. Some royal experts claimed she saw Sophie as 'more like a daughter' than a daughter-in-law.

MAUREEN CALLAHAN: It's Royal revenge! Harry snubbed, alone and utterly irrelevant… and our Discount Duchess Meghan seemingly less popular than Lauren Sanchez

Having borne the vilest of slurs, insults, accusations and betrayals out of Camp Montecito with dignified silence — for years now — it seems they have served up, with quiet elegance, the dish best served cold.

The chill is felt Stateside, trust.

The prodigal Prince Harry, meant to take his victory lap in London as his Invictus Games reach the ten-year mark, entered St. Paul's alone while his father and brother held events mere miles away.

The royals, it was announced, would not be seeing Harry this trip. Nor would he be welcome to stay in any of the many palaces, castles or cottages in the King's portfolio.

No: King Charles, currently battling cancer, was too 'busy' to carve out even a few moments for his son, instead hosting a garden party at Buckingham Palace.

Of the 30,000 guests invited to that event, Harry did not make the list.

Charles, however, did find time to announce, within hours of Harry landing in London on Monday, that Prince William would be named Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps — Harry's former regiment, and a role long assumed for him.

As for William: He, of course, also didn't see Harry this week, instead hosting an investiture in Windsor the morning of Harry's Invictus celebration.

He appears to have made clear his feelings toward Harry, but the stakes are now truly high: Kate Middleton is undergoing chemotherapy for her cancer. The idea that Harry — and, by default, Meghan — could be ever trusted with any information about her or Charles's health is laughable.

Don't forget: After Harry made that whirlwind trip to see Charles after his diagnosis was announced in February — granted an audience of less than 30 minutes for over 22 hours in the air — he turned around and gave an interview to ABC News.

Did he go into specifics about Charles's diagnosis or treatment? No, but probably because Harry is privy to nothing.

Apparently Harry has missed a few memos.  Badmouthing his family and living in CA and no longer a 'working royal' does not grant him any sort of attention from the royal family other than a cold shoulder.

That seems pretty clear.
