EXCLUSIVE: The Prince and Princess of Wales are a famously strong team - and experts are unanimous that they are just as strong and influential apart and are attempting to put the rift between Prince William and Prince Harry behind them
Hot on the heels of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex at the Invictus Games in Germany, it was the Prince of and Princess of Wales’ turn to shine.
“There are always going to be certain things that will remind William of his younger brother and that will be upsetting for him – I don’t doubt that for a second. I’d love to know how much of the Invictus Games William saw and whether or not he even dared watch the Netflix documentary about it. Maybe it was just too painful for him.
“I think she believed the rift could be fixed and, after Prince Philip’s funeral, we saw her talking with Harry and obviously encouraging William to do the same. But we now know that it didn’t work. In fact, William and Harry had a blazing row right after the funeral. There comes a point when you just have to accept that happy families are not a game that everyone can play.
“I’m sure that William and Catherine are a great support to one another and that Catherine is the most incredible source of encouragement for William. The marriage is founded on an enduring friendship and I’m sure William has called on the strength of that friendship to help him come to terms with the loss of his wingman, his brother.”
Sure enough he was met by huge crowds wherever he went. His scheduled engagements included checking out an enormous pile of oyster shells at the Billion Oyster Project on Grosvenor Island, which aims to restore oyster reefs to New York Harbour, meeting the UN Secretary General António Guterres and hanging out with FDNY firefighters near Ground Zero.
Commenting on the warm reception he received, Jennie notes, “Americans love our royal family, and William is becoming the shining star of the monarchy, particularly with Catherine at his side. Of course three of William’s greatest cheerleaders were back home in the UK - Princes George and Louis and Princess Charlotte.
