According to palace insiders, a wave of paranoia has swept over King Charles, fueling a widespread purge within the royal ranks. The King, convinced of a conspiracy to unseat him, has allegedly dismissed numerous royal aides, advisors, and even family members in an effort to safeguard his reign.

Sources report that Charles, haunted by the fear that his confidential conversations are being recorded, has mandated frequent security sweeps for electronic eavesdropping devices in all royal residences, including his private chambers. “He’s obsessed with preventing palace leaks of conversations — even his own pillow talk,” reveals a well-informed palace official, as reported by Globe.

The King’s paranoia reportedly intensified after the release of Prince Harry’s memoir, "Spare," in which Harry accuses Camilla of leaking information about him to the press. “He worries she’ll stoop so low as to snoop on him to remain the power behind the throne!” says an insider.

The 74-year-old monarch, deeply concerned about the security of his legacy, has made sweeping changes in the palace staff, with over 100 top personnel dismissed following Queen Elizabeth's death last September. More dismissals are anticipated as the king works to consolidate his control over the monarchy.

In a move that has shaken the royal family, Charles has stripped his scandal-ridden brother Prince Andrew of all royal privileges and banished him from the Royal Lodge on the Windsor Castle grounds. Even Harry and Meghan have been ousted from their English residence, Frogmore Cottage, and Angela Kelly, Queen Elizabeth’s longtime confidante, has been evicted from her residence.

According to the courtier, Charles’ mistrust extends even to his elderly relatives, the Duke of Kent and Princess Alexandra, who are being eased out of their roles as working royals. The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester are reportedly next on the list.

However, the individual causing the most concern for Charles is his daughter-in-law Meghan, insiders say. “Charles’ paranoia runs so deep, he’s convinced she’s some kind of foreign spy out to destabilize the royal family — and Britain!" reports a palace insider.

Meghan’s refusal to return to England and her decision to keep her children, Archie and Lilibet, away from their royal grandfather has only served to fuel Charles’ fears. The news of Meghan signing with a Hollywood super-agent has amplified his anxieties about her next move. “His biggest nightmare is Meghan writing a tell-all book about her life with the royals," says the courtier, warning, “After Harry’s family-bashing memoir, it could signal the end of his monarchy.”
