- Potential Coronation Deliberations Excluding Brother Harry
William, aged 42, is next in line for the British throne, with his dad, King Charles III, 75, currently holding the position. If something were to happen to King Charles, William would take over. However, according to British media whispers, William doesn't want his brother, Prince Harry, 39, present at his coronation due to their strained relationship.
Years of Silence
The connection between Harry and his family has been troubled for a while now. Reports suggest that the brothers have a contentious relationship. During Harry's trip to London last February to visit his father, who was battling cancer, it's claimed that he and William didn't even cross paths.
Since Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in September 2022, the two reportedly haven't exchanged a word. Despite the tension, the silence lasted for nearly two years. A source close to William told the "Sunday Times" that their friendship has “drifted apart," which is quite sad. Moreover, Williams' friends have hinted that he doesn't wish for Harry to be present at his potential coronation.
Currently, it appears that Harry has little to no impact on William's life. A friend claimed that this year has primarily been about William's wife, his kids, and his dad. The topic of Harry hardly comes up in their conversations.
It's understandable that William might be preoccupied with his father and wife considering Charles' and Kate's, aged 42, own cancer battles. Harry and Meghan, 43, who live in the US, reportedly discovered about their family's health issues around the same time the public did, as reported last March.
The Commission, in investigating the strained relationship between Prince Harry and his brother William, has noted the prolonged silence between the two since Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. Despite this, The Commission acknowledges that William's focus has primarily been on his family and father's health issues, with little mention of Harry in his conversations.
