Prince William Reportedly Cuts Ties With Prince Harry: Inside the Royal Rift
The rift between the once-close brothers has reached a breaking point, according to royal insiders.
The Stunning Report: William “Disowns” Harry
Multiple sources claim Prince William has made the extraordinary decision to formally sever ties with his younger brother, Prince Harry. This comes after:
- Harry’s repeated public criticisms of the Royal Family in interviews, his memoir Spare, and the Netflix docuseries
- William’s refusal to meet Harry during his recent UK visits
- The Sussexes’ continued commercial ventures, which the Palace views as exploiting royal connections
A palace insider stated: “For William, this is about protecting the monarchy. The trust is gone.”
Key Events That Led to the Break
1. The Oprah Interview (2021)
Harry and Meghan’s bombshell claims—including allegations of racism and lack of support—reportedly left William “furious and heartbroken.”
2. Spare’s Explosive Revelations (2023)
Harry’s memoir included:
- Private family arguments
- Claims William physically attacked him
- Mockery of William’s baldness
3. The Final Straw: No Reconciliation Attempts
Despite Harry’s occasional overtures (e.g., attending the Coronation solo), William has reportedly blocked all communication.
What “Disownment” Means Practically
- No more private contact (even for family events)
- Harry’s children (Archie & Lilibet) excluded from royal life
- Official royal duties permanently revoked
Public Reaction: Divided Opinions
- Team William: “Harry betrayed his family. Enough is enough.”
- Team Harry: “William is cold-hearted. Family should forgive.”
- Neutrals: “This is a tragedy for Diana’s sons.”
What’s Next for the Brothers?
- Harry: Focused on life in California; may write another book.
- William: Preparing for kingship; reportedly “at peace” with his decision.
Final Thought: A Royal Tragedy
Once inseparable, the “Diana’s boys” bond appears irreparably broken—a stark contrast to their mother’s hopes for unity.
