Prince Harry's public attacks on the Royal Family are a source of "great pain" for King Charles, according to a source.

The Duke of Sussex has been feuding with senior members of the monarchy for more than three years.


During that time, Harry has launched multiple attacks on the Royal Family through TV interviews and his bombshell autobiography Spare.

A royal source has claimed that the King is aware he made mistakes in raising his sons Prince William and Prince Harry.

The insider told the Mail: "Has His Majesty made mistakes when it comes to parenting? Yes.

"Would he privately admit he could have done some things better, or at least differently? Of course.

"But while I am sure they still don't agree on everything all the time, he and the Prince of Wales are firmly united now around a common shared interest, which is to keep the institution in a place where it can serve the nation.

"This was happening anyway as the late Queen got older, but there's no doubt what happened with Harry brought everything into sharp relief."
