King Charles has appointed Prince William as the new Colonel-in-Chief of the Army Air Corps, a position previously held by Prince Harry. This decision has highlighted the ongoing rift between King Charles and Prince Harry, who was reportedly reduced to tears upon learning about the new appointment. Prince Harry, who recently returned from an unofficial tour of Nigeria, is said to feel the 'brutal reality' of what he has lost. King Charles praised Prince William as a 'very good pilot indeed' during a joint engagement, further underscoring the significance of the appointment. Royal expert Michael Cole discussed the impact of this decision on Prince Harry, while Prince William took off in an Apache helicopter as part of his new role.
