"A winter wonderland indeed…," noted a third, and a fourth added: "Beautiful. I've never witnessed snow like that!"

Prince Harry's raw memoir is due for release on 10 January

Charles' snowy update comes amid a rocky time for the Firm. Earlier this week, The Guardian published leaked extracts from Prince Harry's forthcoming memoir, Spare.

In his book, the father-of-two made a series of shocking allegations involving senior members of the royal family such as his brother Prince William, and his sister-in-law, Princess Kate.

The Duke claims that he was involved in an altercation with William

In one particularly stark extract, Harry claims that his brother turned up "piping hot" to a pre-arranged meeting between the brothers in 2019 to discuss "the whole rolling catastrophe" of their relationship.

According to Harry, William allegedly called Meghan "difficult," "rude," and "abrasive," before physically assaulting Harry.

The dad-of-two claimed that he was left with a visible injury to his back after William grabbed him by the collar and ripped his necklace before knocking him to the floor.
