A fresh royal feud has erupted, this time between Prince Harry and King Charles III, after the monarch made a highly controversial decision regarding the late Princess Diana’s iconic crown. According to palace insiders, King Charles has chosen to pass the treasured heirloom to Princess Charlotte, the daughter of Prince William and Princess Catherine, bypassing Harry’s daughter, Princess Lilibet Diana.

The decision has infuriated Prince Harry, who reportedly confronted his father in a private but tense phone call. “Father, have you lost your mind?” Harry allegedly shouted during the exchange, according to a source close to the Sussex camp. “That crown belonged to my mother — and my daughter bears her name. Give my daughter her crown back now.”

The crown in question is believed to be the Spencer Tiara, famously worn by Princess Diana on her wedding day in 1981 and on numerous royal occasions thereafter. It holds deep sentimental value not only for royal watchers but especially for Diana’s children. The tiara had been in safekeeping since Diana’s death in 1997, with the expectation that it would one day be passed on to one of her granddaughters.

Many assumed that Lilibet Diana, named in honor of both Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana, would be the natural heir to the crown. However, King Charles reportedly overruled tradition and sentiment in favor of “lineage and duty,” opting to give the tiara to Princess Charlotte, who is third in line to the throne.

Palace sources claim that the King believes Charlotte, as the daughter of the future king, will have a more prominent role in the monarchy, making her a more appropriate figure to carry Diana’s legacy in a public and symbolic way.

But for Prince Harry, the decision feels like yet another slight. After stepping back from royal duties in 2020, he has faced strained relations with the royal family, further complicated by tell-all interviews, documentaries, and his controversial memoir. Yet despite the tension, Harry has continued to emphasize his deep connection to his late mother and her legacy.

“This isn’t just about a piece of jewelry,” a source close to Harry and Meghan Markle explained. “It’s about respect — for Diana, for Lilibet, and for the idea that both of Diana’s sons and grandchildren deserve to be treated equally.”

The move has also sparked heated public debate. Social media has lit up with divided opinions — some supporting the King’s decision based on royal protocol, while others accuse the Palace of sidelining Harry’s children for political or personal reasons.

As for Princess Charlotte and Princess Lilibet, both girls are too young to understand the growing storm surrounding the tiara. But the crown’s new placement may one day symbolize far more than its glittering diamonds — it now represents a royal family still struggling with unity, fairness, and the enduring legacy of Diana, the People’s Princess.

The Palace has declined to comment on the private family dispute.
