The classic rift between Prince William and Prince Harry may never be resolved. The Prince of Wales appears to be adamant about keeping Harry at arm’s length. The relationship between the future king and his estranged brother is reportedly heating up. Despite this, William has made a ‘tough and resolute’ choice not to allow his younger sibling to return to the royal fold. Let’s look into what’s going on!

Since the Duke left his family in 2020, William and Harry’s relationship has become more strained. The conflict worsened when Harry and Meghan abdicated their royal duties and leveled numerous claims against the royal family. Despite earlier reports claiming that William had set a ‘ban’ on Harry’s return, he has repeatedly proved his strong character and determination.
Royal commentator Jennie Bond noted William’s steadfast nature, saying, “I think his broken childhood made him tough and resolute. He now has the reputation of being stubborn, and once his mind is made up, he sticks to his decision.”
She went on to explain that as the heir to the throne, his word is extremely important in the family. “I think it’s true that he has been prepared to take a tough stand on a number of issues, including [Princes] Andrew and Harry,”

William appears to have taken a disciplinarian approach with Prince Harry, similar to his grandpa Philip. Jennie remarked on recent claims that Prince William has become the royal family’s ‘enforcer’; she expressed her opinion on the matter, saying, “There is a sense that William has stepped into the Prince Philip role. Philip ruled the family with a rod of iron, and you saw when he died that discipline collapsed. Now William is calling the shots when it comes to family discipline.”
Prince Harry is devastated and perplexed by the supposed ban and his family’s icy conduct. The Duke is also claimed to be emotional and sad after seeing Kate Middleton at the Sovereign’s birthday celebration in June, since he is concerned about her health.
In addition, Charles is caught between William’s strict behavior and his love for his younger child.
