Prince Harry is reportedly shocked and furious that Prince William refuses to acknowledge his UK return, leaving the feuding brothers on non-speaking terms
Prince Harry has been left “shocked” by Prince William’s icy cold shoulder since moving back to the UK, a source claims. The Duke of Sussex returned to British soil in August with Meghan Markle and their two children, Archie and Lilibet.
It was reported at the time that Harry was hoping to patch things up with his estranged family after six years in the US. However, it’s claimed living down the road has done nothing to thaw their bitter feud.
Despite Harry’s hopes of a royal reunion, the Express reports that tensions remain sky-high – and the warring brothers are still not on speaking terms.
It is believed that Harry has been surprised that William has not wanted to make amends, with William deciding to instead ignore his younger brother’s UK return. The Prince of Wales has not even mentioned Harry publicly.
A source told RadarOnline.com: “William’s acting like Harry and Meghan don’t exist. Ignoring Harry is his way of handling what he considers to be a wretchedly unpleasant situation.”
The source said that this has been “infuriating” Harry, who has said on many occasions he wants to reconcile with his older brother.
They said: “Harry’s known to be impulsive, and the more wound up he gets, the more likely he is to follow through on threats to make William regret this.
“He insists he’s tried to find every possible way to say that he’s sorry. He’s genuinely shocked that there’s not even been a shred of forgiveness on William’s part.”
William has steered clear of Harry for a few years now, with Harry’s memoir Spare – released in 2023 – believed to have been the final straw for the future king.
Even though William and Harry have been in the same room since the release of the book, they are not believed to have spoken.
While the brothers are not on good terms with one another, it seems that their father, King Charles, has been making an effort with both of them.
The monarch hosted Harry and his family at Highgrove for a family meeting in July. This was a month before Harry’s move back to the UK.
However, it is believed the monarch has not seen his youngest son, his daughter-in-law, or his grandchildren since they set up home back in Britain. This is believed to be as a result of the monarch’s busy diary.
