A “deliberate” act from Prince William has proved there is no chance he will reconcile with Prince Harry, a royal commentator has claimed. Richard Fitzwilliams told GB News that the Prince of Wales will not open the door to his brother in the near future, and the future king’s participation at a polo match on Friday publicly proved that.
Mr Fitzwilliams said “the optics” of playing polo while the Duke of Sussex met King Charles at Highgrove “were deliberate”, adding: “[William] feels betrayed, because of Spare and the other interviews. Catherine [Princess of Wales], as well, was openly supporting William. So that’s his view, and it made it clear because polo at that time … It’s obvious. They haven’t spoken for years.”
Harry reunited with King Charles at the monarch’s private residence in Gloucestershire on July 10, while William was joined by Catherine for the DMMI Royal Charity Polo Cup at Windsor.
William and Harry have been estranged for several years after relations became strained, in part because of the Prince of Wales’s concerns about the speed of the Duke’s romance with Meghan Markle, and also due to bombshell revelations from the Sussexes in their Oprah Winfrey interview and the Netflix series Harry and Meghan.
