King Charles III<\/strong>‘s terrible reaction to Prince Harry<\/strong>‘s gender was the beginning of the end of his relationship with Princess Diana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

If you missed it, last week, Good Morning America<\/em> aired a clip of an upcoming documentary featuring unheard audio recordings from the late princess. In it, she recalled Charles at Harry’s christening saying he was “so disappointed” his second child wasn’t a girl.<\/p>\n

Now, author Christopher Andersen<\/strong> is doubling down on how much this affected Diana. In an interview with Fox News Digital<\/em> on Tuesday, The King<\/em> writer revealed the monarch’s reaction to the Spare<\/em> author’s birth was “devastating” for her at the time.<\/p>\n

Anderson said:<\/p>\n

“\u2018Oh, God,\u2019 Charles blurted out disdainfully, much to the astonishment of doctors and nurses in the room. \u2019It\u2019s a boy. And he even has red hair!\u2019 At that moment, said Diana, \u2018It just went bang, our marriage. The whole thing went down the drain. Something inside me closed off.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Oof…<\/p>\n

Part of the reason this bothered Diana so much was that she “hated the whole gender preference thing” because she always thought her own parents were “bitterly disappointed” that she wasn’t<\/em> a boy!<\/p>\n

The author continued:<\/p>\n

“After having two daughters, Diana\u2019s parents were so convinced she would be a boy that they didn\u2019t even bother picking out a girl\u2019s name in advance. It was a full week before they named her Diana Frances. She grew up knowing that her parents were bitterly disappointed in her, all of which made Diana feel \u2018unwanted and unloved\u2019 from the beginning.”<\/p>\n

No wonder it was triggering for her! The renowned author of The Day Diana Died<\/em> went on to suggest Harry’s arrival had a lot<\/em>\u00a0to do with his parent’s divorce:<\/p>\n

“Harry\u2019s birth was definitely a turning point in the marriage of Charles and Diana. Perhaps the<\/em> turning point. Diana knew that her husband had gone back to his mistress Camilla<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wow!<\/p>\n

Apparently, Charles had more than one grievance with Harry. Along with the fact he was a boy, he also hated his red hair, which the 38-year-old has always attributed to “the Spencer gene,” AKA his momma’s side of the family. This was probably on purpose!<\/p>\n

The royal biographer explained:<\/p>\n

“Charles doubled down on his criticism of Harry at the baby\u2019s christening, focusing on the gender and, perhaps more tellingly, on the color of his hair. The future king complained not once but several times that Harry was not only \u2018another boy\u2019 but also that his hair was \u2018rusty.’”<\/p>\n

Jeez! What a silly thing to be so frustrated by.<\/p>\n

The journalist added:<\/p>\n

“Amazingly, we have now learned with the publication of Harry\u2019s memoir Spare<\/em> that Charles himself would often joke about how he wasn\u2019t Harry\u2019s real father — cryptic remarks that left his second son bewildered and confused. William<\/strong> and Harry have very relationships with their father. William is the ever-dutiful son, while Harry is the consummate rebel. Were she alive today, I am sure Diana would have traced it all back to the moment Harry was born. Had Charles not reacted as callously as he did, history might have taken a different course altogether.”<\/p>\n

But, of course, there isn’t a time machine that can fix this.<\/p>\n

Still, we can understand why Diana found this reaction to their child so troublesome!<\/p>\n

Thoughts?! Let us know (below)!<\/p>\n
