King Charles III has one major regret in raising his children, especially his younger son.
The claim was made by Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Majesty magazine. The royal expert recently wrote a book, "My Mother and I," which explores the monarch’s upbringing and relationship with his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II. Seward also sat down with the 75-year-old at his Highgrove estate.
"Prince Harry and King Charles were very, very close," Seward told Fox News Digital. "They got on incredibly well. I think Charles probably regrets that he wasn’t strict with Harry and [his older son] William."
He went on with [Princess] Diana’s freestyle of bringing up children," Seward shared. "Diana allowed them to do, more or less, what they wanted, which was very fashionable in those days. You let children just get on with things. I think Charles probably regrets that he wasn’t a bit stricter, because it might’ve given both boys a few more boundaries."
"… Children all need boundaries, and I don’t think they had too many," Seward added.
In her lifetime, the glamorous mother ditched a more formal approach to raising her children. Diana was known for her unconventional hands-on approach behind palace doors. She prioritized playtime, scheduled impromptu trips with her sons and attended to their emotions. Charles, raised in a more traditional environment as a future king, kept things more formal with his children.
