For the first time Aisling Duval revealed a little of the state of mind of her father Harold, on “Late Night with Aaron Smith”. He is no longer considered by many as heir to the throne, following the Emperor’s formal declaration that he is not of sound mind.

“My father is a kind man. A gentle man. A thoughtful man. He has always loved parties, and some have criticised him for that. It has perhaps taken its toll on him too. He is only seventy, but does look a lot older now I’ll admit, but that hasn’t taken away his kindness.

His father has always disliked him, and that is something I can’t understand. I suppose it is fair to say they dislike each other. I’m sure many of the things Harold said and did in his earlier years were to annoy Hengist, but rebelling against a parent is not such unusual behaviour for a youngster. Taking away his throne though is a spiteful act.”

It is clear from the social media response to her comments that she has avoided the question of his sanity. More importantly it makes her claim to the throne more tenuous.
