Prince Harry and Prince William feud and Kate Middleton, Digi Mart USA News: Prince Harry’s criticism of Prince William has reportedly ended Kate Middleton’s hopes of resolving the brothers’ feud. Harry once shared a close bond with the Princess of Wales.
However, a royal author claimed Middleton has become “very disappointed” and reluctant to mediate.
The assessment followed renewed questions about reconciliation after Harry returned to Britain with Meghan Markle. Meanwhile, neither brother appeared prepared to revisit their disagreements or offer an apology.
According to a Fox News report, royal author Christopher Andersen discussed Kate Middleton’s changed position. He said, “Kate is very disappointed with her brother-in-law.” Earlier, commentators considered the princess a possible mediator in the feud.
Andersen recalled, “They were once so close,” and said she initially believed reconciliation was possible. In his words, “when this all started, she felt she could bring them back together.” However, he claimed her willingness to intervene had since faded.
Furthermore, Andersen cited Prince Harry’s criticism of Prince William and other relatives as the turning point. He referred to “Harry’s attacks on William and the rest of the royal family.” The author argued those comments had “for the most part, made that impossible.”
Previously, the Sussexes discussed royal tensions in their 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey. Harry later published “Spare” in 2023, describing disagreements with relatives.
Andersen added, “I don’t think either side has the appetite” to resume those conversations. He specifically referenced “what has been said in the past.”
Meanwhile, British royal expert Hilary Fordwich described William’s continuing objections to reconciliation. She claimed, “It’s only Harry who would ‘love reconciliation,’ not Prince William.” Additionally, she alleged, “He remains furious regarding his brother’s betrayal, insults” and the damage to the family.
Fordwich cited “the lack of trust any of the senior royals have in the Sussexes.” She concluded, “Without a formal mea culpa, there is no starting point.” However, commentator Meredith Constant disagreed, arguing William “should lead and take the first step towards reconciliation.”
Separately, PEOPLE reported in October that the Sussexes weren’t planning an apology.
