The King has reportedly evicted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Frogmore Cottage, their residence in Windsor. Buckingham Palace let the Duke and www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1740755/royal-family-meghan-markle-prince-harry-frogmore-cottage-king-charles of Susses know about the plan to take away the property from them just days after Harry's tell-all memoir, Spare, was published worldwide, it has been claimed.

If there was any doubt, surely the Royals will have had discreet DNA tests done to prove Harry is Charles’ son?
William doesn’t look like Charles either, come to that, but he doesn’t have red hair.
As I said, Harry has the same eyes as Charles so there is no doubt in my mind. However, I'm not sure anyone except Hewitt can say for sure when he met Diana. In the 2005 documentary Under Hypnosis: James Hewitt he apparently said their relationship became intimate in 1981 before Harry was born. So this leaves doubt and always will.
It doesn’t really matter whether Harry is, or is not, the biological son of Charles, because Charles has completely accepted Harry as his son, and has been there as his father every step of the way. For what it’s worth, I think he is the son of Charles, but it simply doesn’t matter what my opinion, or anyone else’s opinion on the topic is, because the royal family and Charles accept Harry as the legitimate son of Charles. He is in the line of succession, fifth I think at the moment, as are his two children, sixth and seventh. Hopefully none of them will ever accede to the throne, and as the children of William grow up and become parents, Harry and his children will become irrelevant as they won’t ever accede to the throne and they won’t be doing any royal duties.
I would suspect that DNA evidence has been sought, just to put their minds at rest, but maybe not, because Harry was never destined to be King, and adopted children are loved just as much as natural born children, though as I said, I believe Harry to be the biological son of Charles.

No idea how people still ponder about who is Harry's father.
The likeness between him, Charles and Philip is hard to deny.
Prince William has a strong look of the Hanovarian Windsors. The Duke of Kent, Lord Freddie Windsor Prince Edward,,slightly jowly particularly as he gets older.
I wonder if they ever did a DNA test.
Perhaps not. I was always told you should not ask a question if you might get an answer you didn't like.
Surely they have the sense to accept Diana is from a family where there is ginger hair.

There are photos of Edward VII as a young man where he is the spitting image of Prince William. Likewise Princess Beatrice is the double of Queen Victoria at a similar age.
Why would they do a DNA test? H was 3 when Diana met Hewitt.
Yes, that's what we were told.
Harry looks like a Spencer, William like a Windsor straightforward, step DIL has 4 children, 2 like his family, 2 like hers, very different kids.

But it would matter to Harry. Which was my point.
If he takes after the Spencers, then maybe he feels a bit of an odd one out?
Havent read the book. Maybe I should some day.
I hadnt given much thought to, he has left behind his mum's side of the family too, by physically leaving the Uk.
Harry likes to say that he knows what Diana was thinking and how she felt, but he was just a child of 12 when she died. How many of us, with only a child's understanding, really know our parents?
I was 46 when my Mum died and friends came up to me at her funeral and told me many things about her of which I knew nothing. There was a whole side to her which I never knew and parts of her which I'd never understood finally fell into place .... and that was as an adult.
But would it matter to Harry. Which was my point.
It wasn’t Harry who was discussing it, it was some grans on Gransnet!
That's a good point, Sparklefizz. At only 12 years old he could not properly know what she was thinking and feeling.
But obviously he was deeply affected by his mother's death and seems unable to move on from it. Has he received the right sort of help? It would seem not.
Why would he want to move on, he knows many thought she was wonderful, since his marriage he has brought her into so many interviews etc,

He's milking Diana for all he's worth in order to earn money.
Yes, sadly this must hurt William
Many,many people have lost a patent at a young age but they don’t carry on like an entitled pork chop well into adulthood.
We haven’t heard much from Meghan lately, whilst Harry has been doing all his pontificating.
I just hope, that if further down the line, if the marriage were to go pear shaped, she isn’t storing up all this vast outpouring of mental health issues, drug taking, family estrangement and so on, to justify why Harry would not be a suitable parent for the two children, and leave her with them in the USA.
By then, Harry will have burnt all his boats with his family, his royal duties, and most important of all, being a parent to his children.
Only my thoughts, but she has not contributed much to all these discussions, which is unlike her.
Things have been going rather pear-shaped for them since South Park. But there is much discussion going on about Harry's recent admission of drug taking.
1/ He is advocating self-medication with illegal drugs as being helpful for mental health problems. This will give all the wrong messages to young people.
2/ By this admission he will probably be unable to leave the USA because he will not be allowed back in.
So this has really created problems and all I can say is watch this space.

My thoughts as well.
Harry has nothing more to gain and everything to lose if he doesn’t change tack.
