Prince Harry suffered a setback as the future King of England, Prince William, 'gave' him a humiliating title.
The royal family has been dealing with back-to-back controversies. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's infamous UK exit, then their continuous claims against the royals, Andrew-Fergie's ties with Jeffrey Epstein and now the very latest one: Earl Spencer's bombshell book on Diana.
An insider told Closer, "William is a man on the edge right now, you can practically see the stress vibrating off of him, it’s terrible.

"He’s worried about his father; he’s worried about the future of the monarchy; he’s worried about what his brother is going to do next."
When the monarchy was already facing the public's scrutiny due to tax talks and Andrew's connections with a convicted sex offender, Earl Spencer dropped another bombshell, which became William's worst nightmare.
But how did Harry become part of this storm? Well, it has been reported that the Duke of Sussex was aware of Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, in which his uncle made eyebrows raising accusations against King Charles.
This left William angry, and he gave a humiliating royal downgrade to his brother by calling him a 'traitor.'
