In the 'Harry & Meghan' docuseries, Prince Harry opened up about the “wedge” that has grown between himself and Prince William. His comments could also widen that rift
They worked closely together for the Heads Together mental health initiative in recent years.
But there are signs that tensions may have been building between the two before things came to a head at Sandringham. For example, there’s an ongoing question of whether the Sussexes even get along with Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales. In the docu-series, Markle describes an awkward dinner party between the brothers and their significant others in which she claimed she caught William’s wife Kate off-guard by greeting her in ripped jeans and bare feet and trying to hug her.
“I started to understand that the formality on the outside carried through on the inside,” she said in the show, “that there is a forward-facing way of being, and then you close the door and you go, ‘whew, great, okay we can relax now’ — but that formality carries over on both sides.” There is also a history of sibling feuds in the British royal family. Edward VIII and his younger brother George VI were close when they were young, but grew apart when Edward VIII abdicated the throne to marry American divorcée Wallis Simpson in 1936, leaving George VI to succeed him as king.
However, Larman says that the Netflix show reveals that the public feud between brothers is likely to continue. “It may have been felt, briefly, that a truce was declared in the wake of the Queen’s death, but as the release of thedocumentary has shown, matters have reverted to business as usual, with added vitriol,” he says.
