00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Callaroga Shark Media, Hello and welcome through Pallace Intrigue and

2
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:18.960
<v Speaker 1>host Francis. The Daily Beast shared that Prince William reportedly

3
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:22.600
<v Speaker 1>has no interest in restoring contact with his brother, despite

4
00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:26.640
<v Speaker 1>a recent social media birthday message. According to friends of

5
00:00:26.679 --> 00:00:30.519
<v Speaker 1>William and Kate, William remains focused on his family, especially

6
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:33.159
<v Speaker 1>given Kate's cancer diagnosis and fills. There is no room

7
00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:36.280
<v Speaker 1>for reconciliation with Harry at the moment, a source told

8
00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:38.960
<v Speaker 1>The Daily Beast. He regards what Harry said in his

9
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:42.960
<v Speaker 1>book as unforgivable. There isn't space for a complicated reconciliation

10
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:46.719
<v Speaker 1>process with Harry. It's not a priority. The messages, according

11
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.759
<v Speaker 1>to another source, were sent to align with King Charles,

12
00:00:49.799 --> 00:00:52.719
<v Speaker 1>who also wished Harry a happy birthday. Is a routine gesture.

13
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:55.759
<v Speaker 1>The friend of the royal couple added, it makes sense

14
00:00:55.759 --> 00:00:58.399
<v Speaker 1>for Kensington Palace and Buckingham Palace to align themselves on

15
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.280
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of essentially routine messaging around Harry. It

16
00:01:02.359 --> 00:01:05.159
<v Speaker 1>shows William is willing to respect his father's seniority and

17
00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>do what is asked of him. Although the birthday wishes

18
00:01:08.680 --> 00:01:12.439
<v Speaker 1>briefly ignited hopes of a potential reconciliation. The response from

19
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:16.560
<v Speaker 1>royal sources suggests otherwise, as one insider remarked, it was

20
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:20.040
<v Speaker 1>just a company thing. Happy birthday, blah blah blah. A

21
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:22.280
<v Speaker 1>friend of the King summed up the situation by saying,

22
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.519
<v Speaker 1>the King has made it very clear that he loves

23
00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:26.359
<v Speaker 1>Harry and wants to be part of his and his

24
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.959
<v Speaker 1>family's life. Publicly wishing him a happy fortieth birthday is

25
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.799
<v Speaker 1>completely of a peace with that ambition. On the Daily

26
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Mail's Palace Confidential Show, Royal editor Rebecca English says Charles

27
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:40.200
<v Speaker 1>is angry and he is hurt, but he is still

28
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:42.359
<v Speaker 1>his son at the end of the day, which is

29
00:01:42.359 --> 00:01:44.400
<v Speaker 1>why it's always been said, as much as he is

30
00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:47.439
<v Speaker 1>keeping distance at the moment, he will never entirely shut

31
00:01:47.480 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 1>that door to him. One thing I did find out

32
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:53.359
<v Speaker 1>is how really disappointed the King was back in November

33
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.840
<v Speaker 1>when Harry did call him to Wisham not just a

34
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:58.920
<v Speaker 1>happy seventy fifth birthday, but also his children did a

35
00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:02.519
<v Speaker 1>little video singing happy birthday to the grandpa they've barely

36
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>even seen. And within hours of that happening, that was

37
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.479
<v Speaker 1>leaked from the Sussex side to favored media, and that

38
00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:11.879
<v Speaker 1>really crossed the line in the sand for the royal

39
00:02:11.879 --> 00:02:14.719
<v Speaker 1>family because so very little of their lives is genuinely private,

40
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 1>so much as lived in public or even surrounded by

41
00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 1>staff watching everything they do, so private conversations, particularly private

42
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:26.479
<v Speaker 1>phone calls, are really considered just that. The idea that

43
00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Prince Harry and Prince William were always close is a myth,

44
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>according to royal expert and biographer Ingrid Seward. Seward explained

45
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>that while many believe the brothers had a strong bond

46
00:02:35.039 --> 00:02:38.039
<v Speaker 1>from a young age, they actually grew closer after the

47
00:02:38.039 --> 00:02:40.879
<v Speaker 1>death of their mother, Princess Diana in nineteen ninety seven.

48
00:02:41.159 --> 00:02:43.719
<v Speaker 1>I remember after William went on his gap year way

49
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:47.400
<v Speaker 1>back on Operation Rally, Harry said he's much nicer now.

50
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>So this myth that Harry and William were very close

51
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:54.080
<v Speaker 1>is a myth. Seward told the Son's Royal Exclusive. They

52
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:56.759
<v Speaker 1>were only really close after their mother died. Of course,

53
00:02:56.800 --> 00:02:59.680
<v Speaker 1>they unified and they were the only two people that

54
00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.599
<v Speaker 1>knew what it felt like, But they weren't very close

55
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:06.840
<v Speaker 1>as youngsters. Suard also recalled that Diana expressed concerns for Harry,

56
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>revealing we talked about it quite a lot. She said,

57
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:12.159
<v Speaker 1>I worry for Harry, and I'm really really careful that

58
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.479
<v Speaker 1>he's not treated differently than William. The expert recounted how

59
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Diana noticed differences in the way Harry and William were treated,

60
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:20.479
<v Speaker 1>saying when they used to go and see the Queen Mother,

61
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:22.719
<v Speaker 1>she would pat the chair and say come and sit here,

62
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 1>William and completely ignore Harry, and that really upset Diana.

63
00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:29.919
<v Speaker 1>Sue had added that Diana was particularly worried about Harry's future, stating,

64
00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:32.159
<v Speaker 1>I think she worried much more for Harry because she

65
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:34.520
<v Speaker 1>just wasn't sure which way he was going to go.

66
00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>William has offered a heartfelt message to support of Lindsay Burrow,

67
00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:41.800
<v Speaker 1>the widow of rugby league legend Rob Burrow, following his

68
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:44.120
<v Speaker 1>passing in June at the age of forty one, Rob,

69
00:03:44.199 --> 00:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>who courageously battled motor neuron disease, left behind a legacy

70
00:03:48.080 --> 00:03:51.000
<v Speaker 1>of resilience and inspiration. In a tweet shared by the

71
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:54.280
<v Speaker 1>at Rob seven Burrow Atcount Lindsay announced the upcoming release

72
00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 1>of her memoir titled Take Care, A Memoir of Love,

73
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:00.599
<v Speaker 1>Family and Never Giving Up, schedule for February twenty seventh,

74
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.199
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five. The book, which tells their Famili's powerful

75
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.199
<v Speaker 1>story will also feature a forward written by Prince William,

76
00:04:07.240 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>a tribute that highlights the Prince's deep connection to the

77
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 1>family and their story. Following Rob's death earlier this year,

78
00:04:13.280 --> 00:04:17.079
<v Speaker 1>Kensington Palace's Twitter account posted a legend of rugby league.

79
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>Rob Burrow had a huge heart. He taught us. In

80
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.680
<v Speaker 1>a world full of adversity, we must dare to dream.

81
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:25.360
<v Speaker 1>King Charles has expressed a deep sorrow in response to

82
00:04:25.399 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 1>the devastating flooding that has struck Central Europe. In a

83
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:31.800
<v Speaker 1>heartfelt statement shared on social media, His Majesty conveyed his

84
00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:36.040
<v Speaker 1>shock and sadness, acknowledging the destruction caused by the catastrophic floods.

85
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.000
<v Speaker 1>My wife and I are profoundly shocked and sad and

86
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:42.160
<v Speaker 1>to see the destruction and devastation caused by the catastrophic

87
00:04:42.160 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 1>flooding in Central Europe. Charles began noting these strong tires

88
00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 1>many in the UK share with the affected regions. He

89
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:52.319
<v Speaker 1>extended his deepest and most heartfelt condolences to those who

90
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>have tragically lost loved ones, homes and livelihoods. The Monarch

91
00:04:55.759 --> 00:04:59.240
<v Speaker 1>also praised the bravery of emergency services, commending their tireless

92
00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:02.240
<v Speaker 1>efforts in providing relief and support to those whose lives

93
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>have been disrupted by the disaster. Palacindric will be right back. Meanwhile,

94
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:15.879
<v Speaker 1>in Norway, Crown Princess met Maried's son Marius borg Hoebi,

95
00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.920
<v Speaker 1>is facing intense public scrutiny after a series of legal

96
00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:21.800
<v Speaker 1>issues stemming from a night of alleged alcohol and drug abuse.

97
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Helby the oldest son of Norwegian Crown Princess. Was first

98
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>arrested on August's fourth charge with violence, threats and vandalism.

99
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.879
<v Speaker 1>Since then, further allegations have surfaced, including death threats, harassment,

100
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:36.480
<v Speaker 1>and violating a restraining order. In a statement shared through

101
00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:40.240
<v Speaker 1>his lawyer with Norwegian media outlet and Arca, Hoiby admitted

102
00:05:40.279 --> 00:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>to long standing struggles with mental health and substance abuse.

103
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:47.199
<v Speaker 1>He expressed remorse, acknowledging that he was responsible for what

104
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:49.959
<v Speaker 1>he had done and intended to cooperate with the police.

105
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.920
<v Speaker 1>He revealed that his actions occurred under the influence of

106
00:05:52.959 --> 00:05:56.839
<v Speaker 1>alcohol and cocaine, resulting in bodily harm and property damage.

107
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.480
<v Speaker 1>The Oslo police are investigating multiple allegations from fort victims,

108
00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.160
<v Speaker 1>including two ex girlfriends who have accused him of abuse

109
00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.920
<v Speaker 1>in close relationships. Hoibi is also facing charges for reckless

110
00:06:06.959 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 1>behavior and additional cases of bodily harm. He spent thirty

111
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.480
<v Speaker 1>hours in police custody after the initial incident, during which

112
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:16.079
<v Speaker 1>reports suggest a knife was found lodged in the wall

113
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:20.000
<v Speaker 1>of an apartment. Houeibi, no stranger to controversy, stepped away

114
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:23.399
<v Speaker 1>from royal duties at age twenty after several scandals. His mother,

115
00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:26.959
<v Speaker 1>Crown Princess matt Marie, is reportedly staying close to her

116
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 1>son during this time, foregoing public appearances. The Norwegian royal

117
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.000
<v Speaker 1>family has yet to delve into the details, with Crown

118
00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Prince Harken acknowledging the seriousness of the situation but remaining reserved.

119
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Experts note that this level of scandal is highly unusual

120
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:43.600
<v Speaker 1>for any royal family, as the case in folds. Legal

121
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:47.319
<v Speaker 1>professionals have indicated that if the behavior continues, stricter measures

122
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:51.839
<v Speaker 1>such as remand could become necessary, and they have it.
