Prince William has reportedly decided against meeting his brother, Prince Harry, during the Duke of Sussex’s visit to the UK.
The reason behind this decision was revealed by GB News.
Prince Harry, 39, made his way back to the UK today to be by his father’s side, King Charles, who is battling cancer.
The Prince of Wales had been preoccupied with caring for his wife, Princess Kate, following her recent planned surgery.
Princess Kate, 42, is currently recuperating at Adelaide House in Windsor alongside her three children – Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
As the Duke of Sussex landed at Heathrow Airport, he wasted no time and headed straight to Clarence House to visit his family members.
However, sources indicate that his visit with his father and stepmother was brief, lasting only 45 minutes.
Despite being in close proximity in Windsor, it appears unlikely that the Prince of Wales will have a chance to connect with his younger brother, Prince Harry, during his stay in London.
The strained relationship between William and Harry has been evident over the past couple of years, particularly since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex relinquished their royal roles in 2020 and relocated to the United States.
The couple’s public remarks about the Prince and Princess of Wales have further fueled tensions within the family.
The recent news of the 75-year-old monarch’s cancer diagnosis has added another layer of complexity to the situation.
Buckingham Palace confirmed the diagnosis, stating that during a routine medical procedure for benign prostatic hyperplasia, doctors discovered the presence of cancer.
In response to the diagnosis, the King has embarked on a course of treatment and has temporarily scaled back his public engagements.
Expressing gratitude for his medical team’s swift action, he remains optimistic about his recovery and aims to resume his duties as soon as possible.
By sharing his diagnosis, the King hopes to raise awareness and offer support to those affected by cancer worldwide.
The unfolding events within the British Royal Family have captivated the public’s attention, shedding light on the personal struggles and dynamics within the monarchy.
