Prince William’s lack of response to brother Prince Harry’s recent comments is an intentional move, according to an insider.
“William doesn’t talk about Harry anymore,” a royal source tells Us Weekly exclusively. “Everyone knows it’s a subject that they shouldn’t bring up, so he hasn’t brought up the interview and won’t.”
The insider was referring to Harry’s bombshell BBC News interview on Friday, May 2, in which he claimed father King Charles III “won’t speak with me” and blamed the royal family for the recent loss in his ongoing battle to reinstate government-funded security for himself and wife Meghan Markle in the U.K.
“William is done with Harry,” the same source told Us. “When he becomes King, everybody thinks the divide will become even wider.”
Us Weekly has reached out to Kensington Palace for comment.
King Charles III and Prince Harry face an uphill — and potential impossible – battle in ever reaching a reconciliation amid their ongoing years-long feud.The father-son rift arguably hit an all-time low last week, when Harry said in a BBC News interview that cancer-stricken Charles, 76, “won’t speak with me,” adding “I don’t know how […]
William, 42, and Harry, 40, have been at odds since the Duke of Sussex and wife Meghan, 43, announced their departure from the royal family in 2020. (Harry’s 2023 memoir Spare hints that their feud started years prior.)
While he’s yet to publicly address the issues with his brother as of late, the Duke of Sussex did share a plea to reconcile with his father during Friday’s interview.
“I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point in continuing to fight anymore,” Harry stated. “Life is precious. I don’t know how much longer my father has.”
Royal expert Christopher Andersen, who has authored multiple books about the family, weighed in on what he believes was a pointed shot from Harry regarding Charles’ health. (Charles was diagnosed with an undisclosed type of cancer in February 2024.)
It doesn’t look like King Charles III will be reaching out to Prince Harry soon, at least according to royal expert Christopher Andersen. “It really does look like Charles is taking the ‘Keep Calm and Carry On’ axiom to a whole other level, doesn’t it?” Andersen, who has authored multiple books about the royal family, […]
“If Harry really wants to reconcile with his family, he has an odd way of showing it,” Andersen stated.
Harry’s BBC News interview came after his loss in a London court to appeal the decision to cut his and Meghan’s government-funded protection following their royal family exit. Harry claimed that his father and their ongoing rift was the reason he lost the appeal.
“He slams his father for interfering in the trial, then says the Palace rigged the outcome, then accuses the Royal Family of not caring about the safety of his wife and children, and winds up declaring that for now he can’t foresee any scenario in which he would take his family to the U.K.,” Andersen said, reacting to the Duke of Sussex’s public commentary. “Harry delivered the coup de grace when he said he wanted to bury the hatchet with his father because he doesn’t know how much time the King has left to live.”
