Prince William is said to be quietly ‘devastated’ over his ongoing feud with Prince Harry, with his younger brother’s repeated claims about their sibling rivalry having taken a toll
Prince Harry has repeatedly spoken out about his complicated relationship with Prince William – who he has previously referred to as his ‘beloved brother and arch nemesis’.
However, royal watchers have heard less on the subject from heir William, who has largely kept quiet about his ongoing sibling feud. Behind palace doors, however, the father of three is said to be ‘devastated’ by Harry’s swipes at The Firm.
The younger prince, who will this month celebrate his 40th birthday, has opened up on various occasions about some of the more negative aspects of royal life – and he’s not held back when it comes to ‘Willy’.
In his 2023 memoir Spare, Harry painted a vivid picture of two brothers united but divided, with jealousies at times allegedly spilling over into full-blown fights. In one particularly emotive passage, Harry recalls a ‘piping hot’ William shoving him to the floor at Nottingham Cottage, breaking his beloved necklace.
In another instance, while taking a walk after the funeral of Prince Philip, their father King Charles was forced to step in and beg them to stop rowing, pleading with his ‘boys’ to not make ‘his final years a misery’.
