Royal kids’ relationship with King takes ‘massive hit’ in racism row says expert

The race row that has engulfed the royal family looks set to have a “devastating impact” on Prince Archie and Lilibet’s connections to their grandparents, according to an expert.

News.com.au’s royal writer Daniela Elser has claimed the Harry and Meghan's four-year-old son Archie will pay a high price for his parents’ ongoing feud with the palace.

A new book by Omid Scobie named Endgame named King Charles and Kate Middleton as the pair who were the previously unspecified members of the royal family who raised what Archie’s mum Meghan dubbed “concerns and conversations” about his skin colour before he was born. The royal expert makes the valid point that the troubling remarks are going to damage what is already a toxic situation.

Elser wrote: “You know that phrase that gets thrown around by conservative politicians and pundits – ‘won’t someone think of the children’? Well as this imbroglio overtakes the Palace and the House of Montecito, won’t someone think of the prince and princess?”

Elser also states that since November 2019 when the baby Archie flew to Vancouver Island with his parents, the little prince has spent only four days in the UK where his grandparents are based. His little sister Lilibet, on the other hand, has never actually spent a full week in the country where she is an official princess.

Elser continued: “November marked four years since a baby Archie flew the ten hours from the UK to Vancouver Island with his parents where they all shacked up in the first mega-mansion in a series of North American mega-mansions befitting an unusually flush Real Housewife that they have called home.

“Since then, the now four and a half-year-old has spent a grand total of four days back in the UK, which also happens to be the entire amount of time that his sister has spent back in their father’s homeland. (Consider: Lilibet is a princess of the United Kingdom but has never even spent a full-week on British soil.)”
