Prince Harry "ready" to reconcile with his brother William ... despite tensions around Meghan Markle
As he returns to England for a highly symbolic event, Prince Harry is said to be ready to wave the white flag at William. Problem: the tensions between the Duke of Cambridge and his sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, would not (at all) be appeased ...
If there has to be a reason Prince Harry agrees to return to England, it has to be particularly important. Last April, it was first for the funeral of his grandfather, Philip Mountbatten, that Archie and Lilibet's dad agreed to put a foothold back on his native soil. This time, it is for another person dear to his heart that Harry returns to Kensington Palace: on Thursday, July 1, the statue will be unveiled in tribute to his late mother, Lady Diana.

Indeed, still according to the words of Robert Lacey reported by Newsweek, the grandson of Elizabeth II is ready to admit that his "character" could have caused great tensions within the royal clan: "Harry is ready to recognize the role that his temper has played bad tricks at unfortunate times. " Good news for fans of the British monarchy ... Except that Prince William would not be in the same mood as his brother, still very scalded by the attitude of Meghan Markle, who would not be more ready to make a gesture towards the family. According to the expert, Meghan Markle "stands firm".
But for Robert Lacey, the two brothers would do better to find common ground… and quickly: "I do not see how they can pay a true homage to the memory of their mother without, not a total reconciliation, but a gesture. If not, what is the world going to say? If they go out and make two wooden speeches, then go their separate ways, what meaning will this ceremony have and what conclusion will the world draw? " The answer Thursday July 1st ...
