The real reason for the breakup between William and Harry has been revealed
Royal historian Robert Lacey has revealed where the differences come from
In recent years, there has been what no one imagined possible, a separation between Prince William and Prince Harry. The siblings who grew up being unconditional companions - according to Princess Diana's letters, from her birth - not only went their separate ways, but a rupture that seems difficult to overcome was evident. The distance that an ocean in between, seemed to calm the waters a bit, but before the return of Prince Harry to the United Kingdom for the funeral of the Duke of Edinburgh, all eyes were on them. The meeting took place after Prince Harry gave that controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey, in it he made it clear that while there was space between them, he deeply loved his brother. The images of St George's chapel gave hope for a reconciliation, but once again, some statements again showed a marked distancing. Given this, the royal historian, Robert Lacey, has revealed where the break in which seemed the most solid relationship comes from.
Despite the fact that much has been said that the estrangement arose when William, who could talk about everything with his brother, showed him his reservations about a wedding with Meghan Markle so soon after meeting, Lacey says that the real break took months after the Sussexes' wedding in 2018. In his book Battle of Brothers, the author claims that a big fight broke out between the brothers when Prince William learned of the bullying complaints that the work team began to raise. against Meghan - which are being investigated, although the Duchess has denied them at all times.
Faced with this situation, William would have been the one who decided to divide the offices of the Cambridge and the Sussexes, who after the 2018 royal wedding had worked together in Kensington Palace. According to the author, William was "horrified" by what he had heard, and one of his friends pointed out that the Duke of Cambridge was the one who made the decision not to continue sharing the same team.
A new chapter in this story
After months of rupture and a clear separation from the decision of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to leave their official positions in the Royal Family, Harry's statements - not about his brother, but about the family in general - seemed to have opened the gap. between them even more. William decided to go against the explicit rule of "never complain, never explain" and when questioned about the interview with his brother, he emphatically said that he had not spoken with him but that he would.
Inside, it is not known what happened in that episode, but in front of the cameras, at the Duke of Edinburgh's funeral, they were seen again together. It was known that in training, they would have Peter Phillips among them, but upon leaving the chapel, the approach of the Duchess of Cambridge seemed to promote a reconciliation between the brothers in images that gave great hope. But on his return home, Harry continued with statements that seemed uncomfortable to all of Britain. Now there is a new appointment, this Thursday, the brothers will unveil the statue of their mother, on what would have been Princess Diana's 60th birthday.
Things look complicated, since his arrival, Harry has passed the government-imposed quarantine for foreign visitors at Frogmore Cottage, the house that had been assigned to him and Meghan, but now they have left Princess Eugenie and her family. . Although the hour and forty minutes that separate Frogmore in Windsor from Kensington Palace doesn't seem like much, right now it could well be an ocean. That is why it will be until Thursday that it will be possible to see if progress has been made when the brothers meet again because of the greatest bond they have, the love of their mother.
