The Duke and Duchess of Sussex flew more than 4,000 miles from New Jersey to Canouan after attending a summit in New York on October 10, causing public backlash. In response, a spokesperson for Kensington Palace issued a statement regarding the upcoming Earthshot Prize awards in November. Prince William is set to attend this event without his wife, Kate Middleton.
The statement emphasized the Earthshot Prize's mission to find innovative solutions that can positively impact the future of the planet. It clarified that the intention was not to discourage people from using planes or cars but rather to focus on forward-looking, environmentally friendly solutions.
Notably, Prince Harry has faced criticism in the past for advocating climate change awareness while occasionally using private jets for travel. He has defended his actions, explaining that there are unique circumstances where private travel is necessary for the safety of his family, and he strives to balance the environmental impact.
In the midst of these developments, there is speculation that Prince William may be softening his stance toward his brother and considering reconciliation. A source reported to Us Weekly that despite the brothers not being on speaking terms, Prince Charles desires an improvement in their relationship.
