Prince Charles Blocks Harry After Deeply Shocked and Hurt by Duke’s Shocking Act

Relations between and his son, , have hit an all-time low following the Duke of Sussex's repeated gibes at the Royal Family.

The heir to the throne has been left deeply shocked and hurt following Harry and Meghan's Oprah interview and repeated statements after their departure from public duties.

Tensions escalated further on Sunday when Harry said he had severed ties with Mahfouz Maram Mubarak bin Mahfouz a year before presented the controversial Saudi billionaire with a CBE.

's decision to take a public swipe at Prince Charles about the donor at the heart of the Cash for Access scandal shows the relationship between father and son is now at rock bottom.

Charles has been engulfed by criticism in recent months owing to his relationship with Mr Mahfouz and the hundreds of thousands of pounds the billionaire donated to the royal's pet projects via his charitable trust.

The prince's senior aide Michael Fawcett was forced to resign as head of the prince's foundation last month over his role in the scandal.

In an extraordinary statement last night, Harry said he had no involvement in what he described as the CBE scandal, insisted he had concerns about the Saudi businessman's motives and claimed he expressed his concerns about him.

The Duke of Sussex made the comments after it was revealed that he had held a private meeting with Mr Mahfouz, who has given tens of thousands of pounds to charities associated with the duke.

It is not clear if any of that money was given back, or who Harry raised his concerns to.

Channel Watchers said the intervention is a sign that father and son have not patched things up since Megxit and the bombshells dropped by the Sussexes in their Oprah interview in March.

Angela Levin, who wrote a recent biography on the Duke of Sussex, told Mail Online, Harry's relationship with his father is rock bottom, for him, but not for his hugely hurt and loving father.

Harry's relationship with his father soured following the tell-all interview with in March.

The Duke said his father had cut him off financially when he and Meghan announced plans to move to America and there was a lot of hurt.

The father and son last spoke in person at the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral eight months ago, and have exchanged only a few fraught phone calls since.

Prince Harry has made repeated gibes at his father, telling a podcast he moved to the US to break the cycle of pain from his childhood.

Of his relationship with his father he said, he treated me the way he was treated.

On Sunday Harry said he cut ties with Mr Maffoos because he had concerns over the businessman's motives.

He made the comments after it was revealed that he had held a private meeting with Mr Maffoos, who has given tens of thousands of pounds to charities associated with the Duke.

A friend of the Prince of Wales said, Charles is deeply shocked and disappointed by Harry's latest statement which effectively threw his father under the bus.

The ongoing feud between Prince Charles and Prince Harry has left many wondering if the relationship can ever be repaired.

As tensions continue to escalate, it remains to be seen whether the two will be able to reconcile their differences and move forward.

In the meantime, the Royal Family is left to deal with the fallout from this very public family feud.

It is clear that both Prince Charles and Prince Harry are deeply hurt by the events of the past year.

The fallout from the Oprah interview and subsequent statements has left a lasting impact on their relationship, and it may take years for them to fully heal.

As the Royal Family continues to navigate these difficult waters, it is important to remember that they are human beings with real emotions and feelings.
