Tensions between the two sons of King Charles have been known since “Megxit” and have increased in recent times, especially due to the numerous shameless confidences of the Duke of Sussex.
Although both present at St. Mary’s Church, Snettisham, to pay their last respects to their uncle, Prince Harry and Prince William carefully avoided eye contact.

According to a witness, the two brothers “kept their distance” and were not seen speaking to each other. Peace is not coming soon.
This new meeting adds to a long list of tense reunions between the two brothers.
Tensions were already palpable at the funerals of Prince Philip in April 2021 and Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022. Despite Harry’s many attempts at rapprochement, Kate Middleton’s husband seems determined to maintain a certain distance.
For the media People, this situation is all the more regrettable since the two brothers shared a closely linked childhood and adolescence.
Their falling out has sparked intense emotion within the royal family and beyond.
Prince William and Harry are said to be at odds over Meghan Markle. A royal expert has spoken about their falling out.
“We can mark the beginning of the two brothers’ falling out with the arrival of Meghan,” believes Pierrick Geais, journalist at Paris Match and author of the book Prince William, the real life of a future king, published by Editions du Rocher.
“William and Meghan have two very opposite personalities. Harry therefore found himself between his brother and this woman he passionately adores, and he chose his wife,” explained this specialist in the British royal family.
