Princes William and Harry have reconciled and are already talking. This is the most commented news on the Island, after the whole world saw how the two brothers stood next to each other on Saturday at their grandfather’s funeral.
What did they say to each other?
The British press does not stop guessing. Citing lip-reading experts, the Daily Express relayed remarks from the brothers’ conversation, which were collected by William Kate’s wife. When the three of them found themselves next to each other after the service, Kate delicately escaped and left the brothers alone.
As they took off their masks, William said, “Yes, it was a great service, wasn’t it,” to which Harry replied, “It was as he wished,” the British paper said. The brothers spoke with the Archbishop of Canterbury, and later William told his brother, “Beautiful service, ah, music.”
The estranged brothers were spotted together for the first time in more than a year as they walked behind the Duke of Edinburgh’s coffin before being buried at Windsor Castle. And they were later caught side by side, ending the feud that tore them apart after Harry withdrew from the family to continue a new life in America.
William, 38, and Harry, 36, walked a silent eight-minute procession from the castle square to St. George’s Chapel, on either side of their cousin Peter Phillips. They did not exchange a word or look during the ceremony.Standard“.
ITN’s Tom Bradby said: “It is often said that funerals are a time for reconciliation and this is a scene that many people wanted to see, not least the family itself.”
Commentator Yves Pollard said: “They were talking. It is possible to overcome the differences. They were talking – and that must be a very good sign. Let’s hope they solve their recent problems, because the queen needs both. We quietly hoped that the loss of their grandfather, whom both William and Harry loved deeply, could begin a healing process.
Royal author Sally Bedell Smith reminded millions of American viewers of the inseparable connection they share. In an American television interview, she said: “William was 15 and Harry was 12 when they walked behind their mother’s coffin, Princess Diana, and their grandfather’s funeral will evoke deep memories.”
By the night before Diana’s funeral, it had not been decided whether William and Harry should follow the coffins, Sally Bedell Smith recalled. And he said, “Philip said to them, ‘If you don’t go, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.’ And then he said to them, “If you go, I will go with you.”
Now, 23 years later and once again united in grief, William and Harry have come together to take the first preliminary steps towards peace.
