Prince Harry blocked from giving late Queen gift to avoid ‘disaster’ | Royal | News

Prince Harry may no longer be the most popular royal, but there’s no denying that he’s always been known for his sense of humour. This trait seems to be something the young prince has had since a young age.

Although details of royal Christmases at Sandringham are not normally revealed, the former royal housekeeper and close friend of Diana, Princess of Wales has spoken out privately. express.co.uk Harry was once Queen Elizabeth II. The only prank he wanted to pull on Elizabeth that would have been a “disaster”. This joke was about the joke gift Harry wanted to give his grandmother when he was little.

However, according to Burrell, Diana prevented her youngest son from giving the gift to the late Queen and instead suggested he pull the prank on someone else.

speaking on behalf of Casino.orgBurrell said: “Children always chose jokey gifts. And when Harry once chose a whoopee cushion as a Christmas present for Granny, the Princess gently pushed him away and said Grandfather might appreciate this special gift a little more than Granny.”

“It wouldn’t have been right for grandma to be sitting on a whooping mat at Christmas, but grandpa would see the funny side of it, and he sure did.

“So disaster was averted. Diana acted logically and gently guided the children in the right direction. Can you imagine if the Queen had known what they were planning? ‘I know exactly what you’re up to,’ she would have said.”

Burrell continued: “Harry was always the jokester in the family. I think that translated into his personality over the years; he was the one who was free to have fun.

“William was always worried about the consequences. Harry never was.”

The Royal Family has been known to exchange cheap joke gifts with each other instead of expensive gifts.

Examples of such gifts included a toilet seat that Princess Anne once gave King Charles – before he became monarch – as a joke about her future on the throne.
