According to Lacey, William’s new stepmom Camilla Parker-Bowles, “confided her surprise to her family and to her close friends at this unexpected side to Prince Charming — ‘The boy’s got a temper!’”
Camilla Was Reportedly Aghast At How William Ranted And Raved At His Father
According to Camilla, William would go barbarian, “against her husband — letting rip with no apparent inhibition in her presence.”
“The rows had been earth-shattering, by her account, with William doing the shouting and Charles submitting meekly. As she’s described these distressing episodes, William would hold nothing back. He could summon up wrath to match the importance that he attaches to his challenging role as the future king.”

The book goes on to report that William developed a fine-tuned sense of protecting the monarchy at an early age and, “In William’s kingdom, everything had to be perfect — and if his father has failed in some way to live up to his elder son’s elevated view of what being royal entails, the young man would release his fury.”
Apparently, Charles didn’t always meet William’s expectations as a parent either. “In 2017, when marking the 20th anniversary of Diana’s death, William proved fiercely uncompromising in his unwillingness to make any conciliatory remark about Charles’s fathering of his motherless sons.”
“Royal PR aides begged the young Prince to give his father some sort of nod when talking to journalists before the screening of the ITV documentary Diana, Our Mother, but he flatly refused.”
“William simply wasn’t prepared to pretend that the workaholic, ever-worrying Charles had made good on all the hands-on parenting that he’d promised,” following the untimely death of Princess Diana.

Have William And Charles Made Up For Lost Time?
The book notes however that one thing has seemed to bring William and Charles closer in recent times and that is the unseemly defection of Prince Harry. It would seem they now have a common foe, as both apparently regarded Harry’s stupendous Megxit move as a breach of their very way of life.
According to Lacey, “Prince Charles and Prince William now clearly appreciate the need to work closely together for the future of the monarchy — whether that proves to be a brotherly reconciliation next year or some regulated and agreed form of effectively permanent division … Their father-son spats are said to be episodes in the past.”
