“If they pass these bills, I would not be surprised if Harry is the next one to go. I would not be surprised if William does that … he’s not a vindictive person, but he feels very let down and it’s always much more difficult when you are let down by somebody close to you.”

The comment reflects the long-standing strain between Harry and the rest of the royal family—particularly with his brother, Prince William.

Harry’s Strained Ties with the Royal Family

Since stepping back from royal duties in 2020, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have built a life in the United States, where they are raising their two children, Prince Archie, six, and Princess Lilibet, four.

In his memoir Spare, Harry referred to William as his “beloved brother and arch-nemesis,” highlighting the deep rift that has persisted for years. Reportedly, the two have not spoken since Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.

A Tentative Reconnection with King Charles

However, signs of reconciliation may be emerging. In September, Harry reunited with his father for the first time in 19 months, sharing afternoon tea at Clarence House.

The meeting lasted 54 minutes—Harry arrived at 5:20 p.m. in a black Range Rover and departed at 6:14 p.m. It marked their first in-person meeting since February 2024, when Harry visited the King following his cancer diagnosis.

The encounter seemed positive, as Harry appeared in good spirits afterward. When asked by a reporter how his father was doing, he smiled and replied,

“Yes, he’s great, thank you.”

While tensions remain, the proposed law adds another layer of uncertainty to the already complex relationship between Prince Harry and the royal establishment.
