Prince Harry Would Fear Greeting King Charles Early at Balmoral For This Bizarre Reason 

Prince Harry said when visiting Balmoral Castle he dreaded knocking on his father's door for fear of what he might find on the other side.

The King's health woes revealed

Prince Harry once revealed one of his father's - King Charles's - health woes while at Balmoral Castle in Scotland.

Writing in his memoir Spare, the Duke of Sussex claimed he would dread knocking on his father’s bedroom door for fear of what he would find on the other side.

He said the monarch suffered from "constant neck and back pain" as a result of years of playing polo.

And he added that he would perform daily headstands half-naked to combat that.

Prince Harry wrote: "Balmoral had 50 bedrooms, one of which had been divided for me and Willy.

It is unclear if the King still suffers from chronic pain 

"Open the wrong door and you might burst in on Pa while his valet was helping him dress.

"Worse, you might blunder in as he was doing his headstands.

"These exercises were the only effective remedy for the constant pain in Pa’s neck and back. Old polo injuries mostly.

"He’d perform them daily in just a pair of boxers propped against the door, or hanging from a bar like a skilled acrobat.

"If you set one little finger on the knob you hear him bark from the other side ‘no, no don’t open, please, don’t come in’."

It is unclear if the King still suffers from chronic pain and if headstands are still part of his daily routine.

Prince William's public image faces challenge with Prince Andrew's rehabilitation efforts  Prince William, one of the most popular figures in the British royal family, is facing increased scrutiny as his presence is leveraged in attempts to rehabilitate the public image of Prince Andrew, a much less favored royal. Controversy arose following a public appearance in which William was photographed driving to church with Prince Andrew seated next to him and Princess Kate in the back seat. The three were spending a family vacation at Balmoral Castle in Scotland, but the public outcry focused on the conspicuous presence of Andrew, who has been heavily criticized for his past associations. Prince Andrew faced significant public backlash and had to step down from all his public roles in 2019. His downfall was closely tied to a disastrous television interview, where he tried to justify an acquaintance with the convicted sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein, and he attempted to discredit alleg...
