Royal family keeping tabs on Prince William's children because Harry…
There’s a delicate balance to the royal trio abandoning the heir and spare dynamic, a royal expert claimed.
An expert claimed that the royal family is keeping a close eye on Prince George’s relationship with his younger sister and brother, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis as they do not want history to repeat itself with another memoir like Prince Harry’s Spare. George is the oldest child of Prince William and Kate Middleton’s three kids and in line to become king. Royal expert Christopher Andersen said that he gets support from his siblings.
“They have to think about George’s feelings in relation to his siblings. George has all this pressure,” Christopher Andersen told Us Weekly saying that the 10-year-old needs to be able to rely on Charlotte and Louis later.
“He has these two siblings who can help him — who can ease some of the pressure and share some of the burden,” the expert added.
There’s a delicate balance to the royal trio abandoning the heir and spare dynamic and perhaps working together to represent the monarchy, Christopher Anderson explained.
“By the same token, they don’t wanna feel sidelined,” the royal expert- author of The King: The Life of King Charles III- said of Charlotte and Louis. “They don’t wanna feel invisible in his shadow," he said.

“The royal family does not want another kid writing a book … another edition of Spare,” the expert said, adding, “Obviously, Harry was very hurt by being in the shadow of his brother. I think they’re aware of that.”
On Prince William and Harry's relationship, the expert said, “I don’t see anybody holding out the olive branch on either side,” he said. “It’s almost as if they’ve just settled into this situation. It’s unfortunate.”
The comments come amid reports that Prince Harry could write a second memoir. Royal biographer Angela Levin said, “Harry hasn’t run out of material. He’s using that as a sort of bargaining piece. He said that he’s got enough for a second book. I think he could say all sorts of things about security. Things he’s heard. A little row between King Charles and Prince William. All sorts of things like that. He seems to have an extraordinary memory. And I think the royal family is quite concerned about that.”
