United Kingdom’s King Charles III, amid reports of the divorce between Prince William and Kate Middleton, has apparently given his approval to William for going on dates with his old mistress Rose Hanbury. The two reportedly reconnected a few months ago and have maintained a relationship since then.
The Royal Family continues to be at the eye of the hurricane while more controversies see the light of the day. The general public, using social media, did not hesitate to express their opinion and the comparisons immediately arose. It is being said that the Prince of Wales’ cheating scandal is similar to that of his own father, who cheated on the late Princess Diana in the 90s.
According to several sources, the King has recently forbidden all British media and tabloids from discussing the matter to try to bury the scandal and keep it out of the public opinion which can be interpreted as a sign of approval for his son’s behavior.
In English tort law, this is a “Super-injunction”, a law resource the Royals can use to prevent the publication of any kind of information that might be harmful for them and also prevents the reporting of the fact that the injunction exists at all.
International publications see this as a gesture of undeniable support from Charles III with his son, who will also be crowned as a King in the future. Unfortunately this has become a prime example of the Streisand effect, in which an attempt to hide or prevent something from becoming public, increases the attention or awareness of said thing.
What do you think of King Charles III attempt to protect Prince William from the cheating scandal?
