Prince William and Prince Harry’s Relationship Strained: ‘What really happened?’

A new episode of The Sun’s Royal Exclusive Show featured a serious discussion about the growing distance between Prince William and Prince Harry. The show included royal author Robert Jobson and well-known royal photographer Arthur Edwards. Both shared strong opinions on why the two brothers are still not on speaking terms.

Arthur Edwards, who has followed the royal family for decades, said the situation is heartbreaking. He shared, “William and Harry were so close all their life. They did everything together.” But now, he says, “Something serious must have happened. Something really bad. William just can’t stand him anymore.”

This marks one of the most emotional comments made by someone close to the royal beat. Edwards believes their bond can still be saved. “I believe in the story of the prodigal son,” he said. “If Harry says sorry and promises not to do it again, I think the King and William might give him another chance.”

However, Robert Jobson offered a more cautious view. He said it’s hard for King Charles to trust Prince Harry right now. Jobson pointed out, “I don’t know how the King can make the first move unless he trusts Harry again. So far, there’s no reason to believe he should.”

This conversation comes shortly after Prince Harry’s BBC interview, which aired following his failed appeal for taxpayer-funded security in the UK. In that interview, Harry shared his sadness over the royal family’s silence.

“I would love reconciliation with my family,” Harry said. “But there’s no point fighting anymore. Life is short. I don’t know how much longer my father has. He won’t speak to me because of this security issue.”

Harry also admitted that he won’t bring Meghan or the kids to the UK due to safety concerns. “I can’t see a world where I’d bring my family back right now. I love my country. I always have. But certain people there have made that hard,” he said.

The royal rift has only widened after this interview. Many fans were shocked by Harry’s emotional words. Some say it shows he wants peace. Others believe it’s too little, too late.

Whether or not the royal family can heal remains unclear. But one thing is certain—this story is far from over.
