The rift between Prince William and Prince Harry seems to have deepened further, as evidenced by William’s recent act of destroying a birthday photo featuring Harry and their father, King Charles.
The incident occurred on the occasion of the King’s 75th birthday, which he chose to spend working rather than indulging in celebrations.
While the King dedicated his day to launching a food project and hosting a small gathering for close friends, William and Catherine, the Prince and Princess of Wales, took the opportunity to emphasize their close bond with the monarch.
In a social media post, William and Catherine shared images that highlighted their strong relationship with the King.
The photos showcased moments of camaraderie between William and Charles, including a shot of them with their arms around each other and another in their military attire from this year’s Trooping the Colour ceremony.
However, noticeably absent from the pictures was Prince Harry, indicating the strained relationship between the brothers.
This exclusion of Harry from the narrative comes after a tumultuous year for the siblings.
Reports have surfaced about alleged altercations between them, with Harry even being assaulted by William at Kensington Palace.
Furthermore, there have been claims that both William and Catherine encouraged Harry to wear a controversial Nazi uniform to a costume party.
These hurtful allegations have only added to the already strained relationship between the brothers and their father, Charles.
The lack of personal well wishes from Charles and William on Harry’s birthday further emphasizes the growing divide within the royal family.
Despite Harry’s return to the UK on multiple occasions, there has been minimal contact between him and his father.
The subject of Harry is said to bring great pain to Charles, who believes Harry caused anguish to the late Queen in her final years.
This rift has inadvertently brought William and Charles even closer, with their bond strengthening as Harry drifts further away.
The erasure of Harry from royal events and announcements has become increasingly apparent.
Frogmore Cottage, the UK home of Harry and Meghan, was taken away from them earlier this year, and the official Royal website was updated to reflect that they can no longer use their HRH titles.
Even at the recent Festival of Remembrance, where the working members of the royal family gathered, Harry’s Invictus Games were celebrated, but his name was not mentioned during the event.
With William and Catherine’s birthday post for Charles, it is clear that Harry’s absence is intentional, raising questions about whether he will be forgotten altogether.
The relationship between William and Charles seems to have flourished in recent times, as evidenced by their close bond and shared responsibilities.
Similarly, the relationship between Catherine and Camilla has also improved, with the two women appearing happy and comfortable in each other’s company.
In conclusion, the strained relationship between Prince William and Prince Harry has become more evident through recent events.
William’s act of excluding Harry from the birthday photo speaks volumes about the state of their relationship.
As the brothers continue to drift apart, William and Charles have grown closer, while Harry seems to be fading from the royal narrative.
