King Charles III and his eldest son Prince William have grown closer ever since Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle ditched their royal roles and moved to California.

A royal expert has shared that the two bonded well over the past couple of years as they know what each other is “going through” given their royal destinies.

Speaking on Pod Save The King podcast, a royal author and biographer of the King, Gill Knappett, talked about the growing closeness of Charles and William.

“They’re so incredibly close and, like his father, William has been brought up with the ultimate role as king in mind,” Knappett said.

“And Charles spent a while going through exactly [what William’s] going through and he will be nothing but supportive of William and there’s is a great relationship to have.”

To this, Zoe Forsey, host of the podcast, shared, “The King's relationship with William seems to be going from strength to strength.”

“We know that William has been bought in and it sounds like, in recent years, it ended up being the Queen, Charles and William making these decisions together about the deals of Harry and Megan leaving the UK.

Before concluding, Forsey said, “They were a trio and now they’ve turned into a double act without the Queen there.”
