Following their avoidance of one another during Prince William’s whistlestop visit to see the cancer-stricken King Charles, an analyst has said that Prince William has no interest in speaking to Harry again unless he apologises for his public insults to the royal family.
The 39-year-old Duke of Sussex travelled over 5,000 miles by plane from his California residence to London for a visit with his father that lasted about 45 minutes.
With their ongoing rivalry, the Prince’s transatlantic run had aroused expectations that his return to Britain would be used to mend fences with Charles and to reach out to his 41-year-old brother, Prince William.
After just one day in the UK, he quickly returned to his Montecito home, but, as it is thought, he spent the night at a posh hotel rather than a royal mansion.
He did not see his brother at all during the visit, but an insider later claimed that the Prince would have ‘gladly accepted’ a reunion with his brother.
‘William would be upset that Harry yet again has chosen to make this visit to see his father a PR opportunity,’ Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, told The Sun.
‘As far as William is concerned, he has absolutely no interest in speaking to Harry until Harry behaves like a gentleman and apologises for the years of rudeness and slurs he has aimed at William and the Princess of Wales.
‘William must be privately furious, thinking over all the years how he supported Harry and at this one moment in his life when his 75-year-old father and wife of 13 years are both potentially seriously unwell, all Harry can think about is Harry and using it as an opportunity to announce his arrival and expect to see William.’
The royal expert claimed Harry’s immediate visit showed his ‘impulsive’ nature was still key, and his rushing to the UK ‘stirs things up’ for William.
The Duke is now expected to join Meghan in Canada next week for an event to commemorate a year until the Invictus Games in Vancouver and Whistler.
It is said that the Prince of Wales is continuing to devote his attention to taking care of his wife Kate, who is recovering from abdominal surgery and will be out of the public eye until after Easter.
Meanwhile, Harry has barely spoken with his father since the death of Queen Elizabeth, and it is reported that there was no contact when he celebrated his 39th birthday.
Unfortunately, sometimes you can burn your bridges beyond repair, and some betrayals cut so deep it can take years to be able to forgive.
Harry and Meghan only told the truth, or did they – well, we will have to watch and see, I’m sure everything will be revealed eventually.
Let’s hope that William never needs a kidney from his brother, or vice versa, or even funnier, Meghan is a perfect match. Sometimes you just have to stop, put down the hate and start afresh with your family.
