London ready to welcome the queen who will arrive at Buckingham Palace from the RAF base in Northolt on Tuesday. The rebellious nephew remembers her and offers an olive branch to Pope Charles III
FROM OUR SEND
LONDON – Granny (beloved grandmother, ndr), while this ultimate separation brings us great sadness, I will always be grateful to you for all our encounters, from my earliest memories with you to when I greeted you as my Commander in Chief, to the moment you met my beloved wife and hugged your grandchildren. Signed Harry. Words full of love, true pain, which capture the human, family aspect, more than the institution represented by Elizabeth.
As London prepares to welcome its queen for 70 years, that from the RAF base at Northolt will arrive at Buckingham Palace, before solemnly lying in Westminster Hall, the most beloved grandson, the most rebellious, the one who has turned his back on a life of service, of Royal engagements for the Crown, mourns his beloved grandmother. And she does it as she always has, with the words of her heart, remembering with Elizabeth, Philip, his grandfather. Alluding to the queen’s humanity, to her infectious smile, a contagious smile. We smile too knowing that you and Grandpa are now reunited in peace, the prince said.
Adding: “Life made up of ultimate separations, as of first encounters”, as you said about your husband Philip. Years ago Harry, not yet married to Meghan, said of the grandparents: They are very funny when they are together. Filippo’s cousin, Pamela Hicks, always noted: I’m certainly not a sweet elderly married couple. And yesterday also the First Minister of Scotland in the speech in memory of Elizabeth recalled the daily life of the queen, the barbecues with Philip in Balmoral.
In short, for Harry, Elizabeth and Philip were grandparents, warmth and a sincere bond. So much so that perhaps the queen’s last wish to reunite the family before the end, after the poisons scattered on TV by the dukes of Sussex, has (in part) been realized in the pain of these days. William and Kate with Harry and Meghan, close as they thank those who have come to honor the queen in Windsor are a moment of unity. Although temporary: it seems that William, after consulting King Charles, asked Harry and Meghan to join in the meeting with the crowd at Windsor. But yesterday for Brother William he had no word in the message. Harry and Meghan, like all Windsors, will be present in these painful days leading up to the funeral (it is assumed that Archie and Lilibet may also arrive in London). Despite their step backwards, and even if, as Carlo has already made clear, their life will continue overseas, far from the royal family.
One thing for sure, for Harry the military, twice in Afghanistan, for the reckless grandson, angry at the trauma of the death of his mother Diana, the queen was granny, the adored grandmother. Pap Carlo? Harry hands him an olive branch after the words on TV that questioned the father-son relationship: We honor my father in his new role as King Charles III.
