British royal family news reveals that Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex and Prince William, Duke Of Cambridge relationship is having a hard time. The bond between siblings is incredibly elastic—one can stretch and strain it, pull, and twist it but it has an incredible propensity to return to form in the end. Unless the siblings are Prince Harry and Prince William according to many royal watchers.
These two who survived through childhood traumas played out on a world stage are now said to be estranged to the point of peril. Will, they ever repair the damage that has reportedly been rendered, will they prove to be resilient in the end, or has the elasticity between them stretched too far?
According to one royal watcher the relationship has gone beyond slights and snubs to the point of no return. The expert says that William views the relationship as changed in a large and fundamental way.
Will Prince William be there for Prince Harry as he once was in the past?
In the book Battle of Brothers: William and Harry— The Inside Story of a Family in Tumult, writer Robert Lacey digs deep into the actual reality of the rift between the men.
According to Lacey, Prince William told a friend that after the stunt Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, pulled in regard to the birth of their son, Archie Harrison, he threw his hands up. In effect, William simply felt that there was nothing else he could to be there for his younger brother.

In Battle of Brothers, Lacey concludes that there were tensions prior to Meghan’s disruptive arrival but that her presence made the drama more intense and frequent. According to Lacey, the straw that broke the camel’s back involved the way in which they set out to deceive everyone regarding Archie’s birth; who does that and why? A newborn child is one of the greatest joys a family can experience and instead of embracing his family upon the birth of his first child Harry circled the wagons and kept them removed from the joyous event, something had to hurt his family members incredibly.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their son Archie Harrison by unwelcoming his family
It wasn’t just that Harry and Meghan did things their own way and threw centuries of royal tradition out the window. For instance, they did not welcome Archie at the Lindo Wing maternity at St. Mary’s Hospital in London as several royals have done. Instead, they chose Portland Hospital, an American-owned, ritzy, private facility in what had to be seen as a purposeful move by Meghan.
Second, they made the palace release untrue announcements about the event; the Palace announced that Meghan was in labor after she delivered Archie and had gone home with him. Then, in a bewildering act that some royal watchers have called bizarre and paranoid, Harry and Meghan refused to allow members of the public to witness Archie’s christening and refused to identify his godparents, both of which flew in the face of royal tradition.

All of this subterfuge led William to tell a friend, “I’ve put my arm around his shoulder all our lives together. I can’t do it anymore.”
