Prince William's Alleged Jealousy: A Closer Look At Royal Rivalries

Life in the royal family isn't always a fairy tale, and it seems like Prince William might be feeling a bit left out of the spotlight. According to a recent report, the Duke of Cambridge is allegedly envious of the media attention showered on his younger brother, Prince Harry, particularly after Harry started dating his now-wife, Meghan Markle. Let’s dive into the details and see what’s really going on behind palace walls.

What's the Buzz About?

It all started when The Daily Mail published an excerpt from royal biographer Robert Jobson's latest book, Charles at 70: Thoughts, Hopes, and Dreams. In the book, Jobson claims that William, 36, and Harry, 34, have been engaged in a bit of a sibling rivalry lately. This isn’t just a casual competition over who gets more Instagram likes—it’s a deeper tension that seems to revolve around media coverage.

The Wales Visit That Caused a Stir

Jobson points out that the rivalry flared up during a royal visit to Cardiff Castle in Wales earlier this year. Harry and Meghan were the center of attention during their trip, capturing the hearts of fans worldwide. But here’s the kicker: William, who was also on a royal engagement that day, decided to debut a bold new buzz cut hairstyle. Was it a coincidence? Or was it a strategic move to ensure he didn’t get overshadowed by his brother’s charm? According to Jobson, William's choice of timing wasn’t accidental. “It was a time of peak interest in the couple,” Jobson wrote. “Intriguingly, William — who was also on a royal engagement — chose the same day to display a new and dramatic buzz cut hairstyle.”

    William's Reputation Among Palace Insiders

    Jobson didn’t stop there. He went on to suggest that some members of the royal household view William as "difficult" and "a little grand." Apparently, even his father, Prince Charles, is aware of William's occasional mood swings and keeps an eye on them. It’s like having a sibling who’s always trying to one-up you, but with the added pressure of being part of one of the most famous families in the world.

    A Glimpse Into Charles' Past

    Jobson’s book also delves into Charles’ own royal marriage to the late Princess Diana. Surprisingly, the author claims that Charles desperately wanted to call off their wedding before they tied the knot in July 1981. According to Jobson, the couple only went on a handful of dates before getting engaged, and Charles quickly realized they might not be a perfect match. But by then, it was too late to turn back. “He would try to talk to her about his work commitments and what kind of day he’d just had — and Diana would stare back at him blankly,” Jobson wrote. “In truth, neither of them was actually in love with the other.”
