Royal expert shares major claim about Prince William and Prince Harry’s reunion

Prince William might eventually change his stance on inviting Prince Harry to his coronation, according to a royal expert. Jennie Bond, a former BBC Royal correspondent, suggests that over time, the Prince of Wales could develop a “soft corner” for his estranged brother and potentially end their long-standing rift. In a major claim, Bond shared that while the current rift between the brothers seems deep, time may heal their relationship, leading to a potential reunion.

In an interview with OK! Magazine, Bond shared her insights on the strained relationship between the royal siblings, particularly in light of reports suggesting that a reconciliation might only happen at their father King Charles’ funeral. “I agree that the rift between William and Harry looks unbridgeable,” she said. “I don’t think William wastes any of his life thinking about his brother, though we know that Harry has said he would like to have some kind of reconciliation.”

While Bond acknowledged that it was unlikely William would invite Harry to his coronation at this point, she offered a glimmer of hope for the Duke of Sussex. “You can only go to a coronation if you are invited and, at this stage, I suspect Harry would not be invited,” Bond stated. However, she added, “That day is hopefully some way off, and it’s possible that William’s attitude may have softened somewhat by then,” though she cautioned against getting too optimistic.

Bond also highlighted the other pressing issues that currently occupy William’s mind, including his responsibilities as Prince of Wales, his wife Kate Middleton, and his father’s ongoing health battles. “William has far too much to concern himself with at the moment: his father’s illness, his wife’s illness, and three young children to nurture. Not to mention his important role as Prince of Wales,” she noted.

The relationship between Prince William and Prince Harry has been strained for years, particularly after Harry and Meghan Markle’s departure from royal duties in 2020. While the possibility of reconciliation remains uncertain, Bond’s comments suggest that time may eventually heal the wounds between the once-close brothers.
