Prince Harry may be ready to make a major move toward rebuilding his relationship with Prince William, but Meghan Markle is reportedly far less comfortable with the idea.
According to a report attributed to Closer, Harry is said to be willing to apologise to William and Kate Middleton if that could help bring an end to their long-running family rift. However, Meghan reportedly believes reconciliation should not require Harry to take all the blame or ignore what he feels happened to him and his family.
A source cited by the publication claimed Meghan understands why Harry wants to repair the relationship with his brother and supports the idea of peace. Her concern, however, is reportedly about how that reconciliation takes place.
The insider suggested Meghan does not want Harry to approach William as though he must accept responsibility for everything simply to secure a meeting or rebuild their relationship.
The source was quoted as saying Meghan believes Harry should not have to “throw himself at William’s feet” for reconciliation. She reportedly feels that both brothers need to acknowledge their own contributions to the dispute rather than expecting Harry to apologise for matters he does not believe were his fault.
The reported disagreement appears to centre on how the Sussexes should approach their possible future in the UK. Harry is allegedly prepared to take the first major step if it could help restore family ties, while Meghan reportedly wants any reconciliation to be based on mutual understanding.
According to the source, Meghan would prefer Harry and William to sit down privately, discuss what happened from both perspectives and accept responsibility where appropriate.
The insider also claimed Meghan has encouraged Harry to be patient rather than rushing into an apology simply because he wants the family relationship repaired.
“She wants to see Harry play the long game,” the source reportedly said, suggesting Meghan believes waiting could ultimately produce a healthier reconciliation.
The claims come amid continued speculation about Harry's relationship with the royal family and whether his future visits to the UK could create opportunities for renewed contact with William and other relatives
However, neither Harry nor Meghan has publicly confirmed the reported private conversations described by the unnamed source. Likewise, the details about what William may require before meeting Harry should be treated as reported claims rather than confirmed royal plans.
