Somebody Check on Prince William
The Cut • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are moving back to the U.K. after six years in California, with King Charles reportedly eager to spend time with them despite past tensions.
- The move is partially motivated by Meghan's new acting opportunity, but it raises questions about Prince William's feelings given the longstanding estrangement between the brothers.
- Harry and William's feud dates back to around 2018, worsening after Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and following controversial public revelations, including Harry's memoir Spare.
- Despite significant family events like Queen Elizabeth's death and King Charles's coronation, the brothers have maintained a cold relationship, with William described as stubborn and feeling betrayed by Harry.
- While reconciliation seems unlikely, Harry's return to the U.K. may increase pressure to mend ties, with some sources suggesting Kate Middleton might help ease tensions for the sake of family unity.
