LONDON, UK: King Charles reportedly told the late Queen that he was “not a bank” when she asked him to pick up Prince Harry’s phone calls. According to sources, it was also been reported that the Duke of Sussex used to constantly call his late grandmother with several requests after she began taking lighter royal duties because of her ill-health.

However, the Queen “was unable and unwilling to deal with his requests,” The Sun reported. When she reportedly confronted Charles for not taking Harry’s calls, he told her, “Because I am not a bank.” As per a source, “The late Queen was always happy to speak with Harry but when he asked for money she said, ‘Why don’t you speak to your father?’”

“Harry told her that Charles wasn’t taking his calls any more. Charles insisted that his son must email him instead. Members of the ­family, including William, had stopped speaking to Harry when they learned of his book deal, fearing what they said could end up in print,” sources told The Sun.

They added, “Harry is not as well off as people are led to believe. He was wanting money. When the Queen asked Charles what he was doing about it because she was fielding so many calls, he told her, ‘I’m not a bank’.”

This comes as the royal family was reportedly stunned by the trailer of Harry and Meghan’s Netflix documentary, titled ‘Harry & Meghan’. In one of the clips of the trailer, the Duke can be heard saying, “No one sees what’s happening behind closed doors,” and in another part, the Duchess claimed, “When the stakes were this high, doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?”
   
A senior royal insider told The Mirror, “There is a completely united front from the King and his family concerning the numerous attempts to privately make peace with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, which sadly have once again resulted in the other side wishing to air their repeated grievances to the world.”

“If there is a need to respond to anything in the upcoming series then you can be assured that response will be swift and robust,” the source added.



 

Meanwhile, the King not taking his son’s calls has attracted a lot of attention online with a user saying, “So Harry was repeatedly asking for money as recently as this year? Even as the Queen was seriously ill? They must be in dire straits financially. If this is true it certainly casts a very different light on their ‘poor me’ victim narrative.”



 



 

The second user tweeted, “Our poor late Queen was badgered by the traitor for money? Has he no shame? Does he not realise his actions would not endear him to anyone and why would they help? So his ultimate revenge was to not visit his grandmother when she was dying? I’m utterly disgusted.” “Wonder if these phone calls will be in the Nutflix reality show? KC refusing to talk to his son. Another victim narrative in the making?” the third user added.
