Prince William and Princess Kate are currently savoring their annual summer retreat at Balmoral, Scotland, with their three children. This getaway offers the royal family a chance to relax and create cherished memories.
According to Heat magazine, Prince William is concerned that discussing Harry and Meghan could lead to “unnecessary stress” for the family. Following Harry’s critical interview in the U.S., where he described the UK as “dangerous,” hopes for a reconciliation between the royal siblings seem to have dimmed.
A source revealed: “Kate and William have imposed a ban on discussing anything related to Meghan and Harry. They want to enjoy their time off and shield Kate from the stress and sadness caused by Harry and Meghan. It has a negative impact on both her physical and mental well-being.”
William is deeply concerned about his wife’s feelings. He fears that comments from Harry and Meghan could make Kate feel “anxious.” Tensions between Princess Kate and her sister-in-law began when Meghan joined the royal family and worsened during the preparations for Harry and Meghan’s wedding in 2018. In Harry’s explosive memoir *Spare*, he recounts an argument over Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid dress that left Meghan “devastated” in tears.
According to Harry, Kate later sent flowers and a letter of apology to Meghan.
The relationship between Harry and William has also been fraught with tension. In 2019, Harry revealed that during an argument about Meghan, William had grabbed Harry by the collar and pushed him to the ground. A year later, Harry and Meghan decided to step back from royal duties and relocate to Montecito, California. Recently, Harry stated he would not return to the UK with Meghan and their children due to safety concerns, emphasizing: “This place is still dangerous, and just one person acting on what they’ve read is why I won’t bring my wife and kids back to this country.”
These developments highlight the ongoing strain and difficulty in relations between the two sides. Despite Prince William and Princess Kate’s efforts to protect their family, issues stemming from Harry and Meghan remain a persistent burden in their lives.
