- Soothing sentiment experienced during my relative's funeral service
Wow, this is quite the turn of events: Prince Harry (39) crossed the pond as per British media, heading to Norfolk, UK for Lord Robert Fellowes' memorial service. The memorial, held at St. Mary's Church in Snettisham on August 29, saw Harry pay his respects and leave attendees speechless, as one of the guests revealed.
"Most folks were taken aback that Harry was there," shared a source who participated in the service. "You could tell he was enjoying catching up with everyone." Even his reportedly present sibling, Prince William (42)? The supposedly strained brothers kept their distance during the service, sticking to earlier reports. There wasn't any noticeable sign of reconciliation between the two.
Harry, stepping away from royal duties post marriage with Duchess Meghan (43) in 2020, now resides in Montecito, California. His show of emotion during the service left him "euphoric" and others "bewildered," according to the anonymous source. However, the source also noted the absence of any interaction between Harry and William.
A Memorable Encounter
A truly touching moment unfolded when Harry took a moment to greet his late mother's siblings: Fellowes' widow, Lady Jane Spencer (67), Diana's brother Charles Spencer (60), and her sister Lady Sarah McCorquodale (69).
Reverend Dan Tansey, who led the service for Lord Fellowes, was taken aback by the presence of both William and Harry. As mentioned in "The Sun", Reverend Tansey shared, "I didn't realize this till I was guiding the congregation out, but Prince William shook my hand first, followed quickly by Prince Harry."
After the emotional memorial service, Harry expressed his gratitude to the attendees, expressing that it was a necessary visit to pay his respects at Lord Fellowes' funeral. Following the event, various outlets reported on the brothers' interaction, with some suggesting a glimmer of reconciliation, although no significant progress was visible.
