On TikTok, royal expert @matta_of_fact shared a video in which she unearthed a 1986 magazine about the royals, complete with a horoscope section. In the video, the TikTok user reveals that the magazine predicted Prince Charles would have “a year full of fun.” Interestingly, this seems to have proven true, as 1986 is the same year that Prince Charles began his affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles, per The Independent. While this may sound like a coincidence, Princess Diana’s horoscope said that she would “win new public fans,” which occurred as a direct consequence of the affair. However, it’s worth noting that she was also popular in her own right, as the People’s Princess.
When it came to Prince Harry (who was then just a little boy), his horoscope noted that he was “independent” and “creative,” and that his actions may even fall into selfishness. Some might call his decision to step down from the royal family a selfish one, and there’s no denying that his life decisions have highlighted how independent he truly is. On the creative side, the Duke of Sussex has also founded Archewell Productions, which will produce new original content. While Prince William’s horoscope doesn’t seem to have matched his life trajectory as well as the others, there’s no denying the accuracy of these old predictions. They don’t even fall into the contrived myths about the royal family, which is an added bonus.
