The Princess of Wales’s desire to reunite Harry and William sparks tension amid the King’s health concerns
Catherine, the Princess of Wales, is said to be testing her husband’s patience as she continues to encourage him to reconcile with his brother Harry during a difficult period for the royal family.
Once close to her brother-in-law, Catherine’s attempts to mend fences have reportedly left the future king frustrated. “William was very clear that he didn’t support it, and Kate’s ongoing communication with Harry hasn’t sat well with him,” a royal insider shared.
Adding to the tension, the insider said William is “staggered” by King Charles’s willingness to welcome Harry back, comparing the King’s attitude to the return of a “prodigal son.” The Prince of Wales is said to be upset that his father allowed Harry to stay at a royal residence during a recent visit to London.
“William feels his concerns are being ignored,” the source added. “He’s made it clear to Kate that he doesn’t want her getting involved the next time Harry visits.”
Despite her husband’s frustration, Catherine’s efforts stem from a sincere wish to restore family unity. Having faced her own health challenges, including cancer treatment, she believes life is too short for division.
Those close to the family see Catherine as the one person who could help bridge the gap between the brothers. King Charles reportedly views her as a calming influence who could play a vital role in healing the rift once and for all.
