How Prince William and Prince Harry Really Felt About King Charles Marrying Queen Camilla, According to Their Former Royal Butler
We all went outside to wave them off and laughed as we saw William and Harry had decorated their car with ‘Just Married,'” former royal butler Grant Harrold wrote of Charles and Camilla’s wedding day.
In his 2023 memoir Spare, Prince Harry wrote that he and his older brother, Prince William, had “complex feelings” about their father’s decision to remarry in 2005—but former royal butler Grant Harrold says that wasn’t clear to people viewing the brothers from the outside.
In an interview with The Telegraph ahead of the publication of his own memoir of royal life, The Royal Butler: My Remarkable Life of Royal Service, Harrold described the day Charles married Camilla, saying that it was the “happiest” he ever saw the now-King, and adding that William and Harry seemed genuinely happy about the union, too.
“Charles and Camilla were catching a flight to head straight to Birkhall [on the Balmoral estate],” Harrold wrote of the events following the couple’s civil ceremony. “We all went outside to wave them off and laughed as we saw William and Harry had decorated their car with ‘Just Married.’”
