Once united, Prince William and Prince Harry now find themselves far from the perfect picture of brotherly love.
Their relationship took a turn for the worse when Harry and Meghan stepped down from their royal duties and began making public accusations about the royal family, including allegations of racism.
The extent of the damage to their relationship is difficult to gauge, but one thing is clear: the anger between them has not subsided, and it is unlikely that the bridges they burned will be rebuilt anytime soon.
Unfortunately, the royal family is facing even more hardships at the moment. Both the King himself and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, are battling cancer. After enduring speculations about her health and whereabouts, Kate decided to put an end to the rumors and share the truth about her condition.
In a video released on Friday, she revealed that she had undergone major abdominal surgery, initially believed to be non-cancerous. However, subsequent tests showed the presence of cancer, leading to the recommendation of preventative chemotherapy.
Kate’s announcement received an outpouring of support from her people, family, and friends, including Harry and Meghan. While the Sussexes issued a formal statement expressing their sympathy, it has also been reported that they reached out to William and Kate privately as well.
According to royal expert and author Tom Quinn, Harry and Meghan’s private message to William did not convey a warm and informal tone, which one would expect from brothers who have been through so much together. The deep-seated ill-feeling between the brothers made it impossible for their communication to be anything but distant.
It is unlikely that the contents of Harry’s message to William and Kate will ever be made public. Reports vary on how and when Harry and Meghan learned about Kate’s cancer diagnosis. Some believe they were trusted with the information prior to Kate’s public video, while others think they found out at the same time as the rest of the world.
During these challenging times for the British royalty, we can only hope that the brothers will find a way to reconcile and set aside their differences. Let us come together as a community and support them during this difficult period.
