Royal growing pains? King Charles III didn’t always have a “warm and fuzzy” relationship with late mother Queen Elizabeth II, according to royal expert Christopher Andersen.
The new monarch, 73, felt “abandoned” by his parents throughout his “heartbreakingly lonely childhood,” Andersen claimed during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly on Tuesday, November 1, while discussing his book The King: The Life of King Charles III.
“There was never a cozy relationship between Charles and the queen,” the author told Us, describing the former Prince of Wales’ “complicated” upbringing and difficult experience in school. “That’s because the [royal] family is not set up to be cozy.”
While there may have been tension between them when Charles was young, Elizabeth and her eldest son bonded more in the years ahead of her death. “I think that the queen and Charles grew closer as she grew white [and] old, and as he grew,” Andersen added.
The royal matriarch was the longest-reigning British sovereign, celebrating 70 years on the throne before she passed away at age 96 in September. Shortly after Buckingham Palace confirmed Elizabeth’s death, Charles issued a glowing statement in her memory.
“The death of my beloved mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family,” he wrote at the time. “We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished Sovereign and a much-loved Mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the Realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.”
He continued: “During this period of mourning and change, my family and I will be comforted and sustained by our knowledge of respect and deep affection in which The Queen was so widely held.”
