Prince Harry and Prince William may have been in the same room as each other at the memorial service for his uncle Sir Robert Fellowes last week, but sources claimed they were worlds apart after they failed to even acknowledge each other.
However, that may soon change as a source close to both Prince William and Prince Harry told Express.co.uk that both brothers have expressed a desire to mend their broken relationship.
“Harry is open to reconciling with his brother,” the source said. “He knows it won’t be an easy task, but it’s something that can be brought to the table.”
Meanwhile, the same source said: “William is not opposed to a reconciliation with his brother at some point, but things would need to start from scratch, a fresh start scenario where things from the past are not brought up.”
Prince Harry flew from his home in the US to join his brother at St Mary’s Church, Snettisham, for their uncle’s memorial last Thursday.
The service took place near the royal family’s Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
A source told Express.co.uk at the time that both Prince William and Prince Harry were present but did not speak to each other during the service and There is only one thing that can fix your broken relationship: the Spencer family..
“Everyone is hoping that there might be some kind of intervention from Jane or Charles [Spencer] which will hopefully bring them back together,” the source said. “It will take some time, but it seems like a possibility.”
It was reported over the weekend that Prince Harry stayed at Princess Diana’s childhood home during her last visit to the UK.
The Duke of Sussex stayed with his uncle, Charles, Earl Spencer, at the Spencer family’s ancestral seat, Althorp House, Northampton.
Prince Harry and Prince William first fell out around Christmas 2018, when Harry reportedly told William he wasn’t doing enough to include Meghan in the royal family.
However, things came to a head in 2020 when the Duke and his wife, Meghan Marklestopped working as royalty and moved to the United States.
The move abroad was quickly followed by the release of the memoir “Finding Freedom,” which the couple supported.
This was quickly followed by an interview with Oprah Winfrey, where the couple made a series of accusations against the Royal Family.
Soon after came the couple Netflix documentary ‘Harry & Meghan’ and the now infamous release of Harry’s autobiography, Spare.
In the fairy tale, Harry made a number of revelations about his brother, including that he pushed him to the ground during a fight.
Harry also revealed details of a dispute between Meghan and the Princess of Wales over bridesmaids’ dresses – which reportedly left both women in tears.
Since moving to the United States, the Sussexes have made very few visits to the UK.
The Duke of Sussex visited the UK to see his father, King Charles, in February this year and again for the Invictus Games in May. However, the Duke was unable to meet any members of his family during the latest trip due to a “diary conflict”.
Meghan has not been seen in the UK since the late Queen’s funeral in 2022.
Kensington Palace and the Sussex camp have been approached for comment.
