It appears the big guns have been called in, and the Firm is surrounding Prince Harry and Prince William in the most surprising way possible, via their aunt Princess Anne.

For those unversed, for decades the Princess has held an unofficial title as the ‘hardest working royal’. Even at 76-years-old she carries out multiple engagements in a day, and it appears the ‘nonsense’ connected to the heir and spare is becoming ‘appalling’ in her eyes.

A well placed source even explained her point of view in a conversation with the National Enquirer.

According to the insider, “Anne says everybody in this situation shares some of the blame, not just the Sussexes and not just the Waleses. In her view, they all need to be brought into line and told that this nonsense has gone on far too long.”

The insider didn’t even conclude there, and instead offered even more detail when saying, “In her view, for two grown men to be fighting, sulking and getting bent out of shape over every little thing when they should be treasuring every moment they have left with their father, is appalling.”

Moreover, “this immaturity is simply unacceptable, especially when the king is still ill and he's repeatedly asked both of his sons to find a way through this.”

Behind the scenes she’s also a lot more bite than bark because “she's been chipping away at William and trying to get him to see how bad this is for his father's legacy. By all accounts, Harry has been a lot more open to fixing things, so in some ways she's actually happier with his attitude at this point, though she's in no way letting him off the hook.”
