Prince Harry Unlikely to See Estranged Brother Prince William During U.K. Visit Due to Their 'Strained' Relationship: Expert

There's little hope Prince Harry and Prince William's soured relationship will ever turn a corner.

The Spare author, 41, will be flying across the pond to the U.K. next month alongside wife Meghan Markle to kick off his 2027 Invictus Games. However, it's reportedly unlikely he will meet up with the Prince of Wales, 44, during the trip.

According to royal expert Amanda Matta, Harry and William's "strained” relationship may be too far gone for any sort of reunion.

“I think it is almost impossible to draw any conclusions about a reconciliation between Harry and William at this stage,” she told Page Six on Monday, June 22.

“William is also seeking to project strength and leadership these days, which often results in press briefings that he has opposed the king’s handling of emotionally-charged issues like Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and now, Harry’s potential return,” Matta went on.

Harry and Meghan, 44, are bringing along their children, Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, for their vacation to England. The Sussexes are also reportedly set to visit King Charles so he can finally get to know his grandchildren.

The trip will be the Suits star's first journey to the U.K. since September 2022 when she attended the late Queen Elizabeth's funeral.

The monarch, 77, even offered royal accommodations to Harry and Meghan while they are in the U.K. in July. Buckingham Palace was suggested to the couple, but they declined to stay there.

Royal reporter Emily Nash also gave her two cents on William and Harry potentially meeting up, telling Page Six: "I certainly wouldn't expect anything to happen on this visit... I mean, you never know."

“If it was part of a wider family gathering, it’s possible they could be at the same place at the same time," she explained. "But, you know, given the very fractious nature of the relationship between William and Harry, I don't see them rushing to spend time together just because Harry's back in the U.K."

Matta also noted the Duke of Cambridge still sees "Harry’s betrayal as unforgivable," but if the estranged brothers did have some sort of private reunion, it would show the “lines of communication being reopened."

However, Nash chimed in and said tense dynamics within The Firm "won't change overnight," as "things have to happen step by step."

The siblings' relationship hasn't been the same since Harry and Meghan left the monarchy, but things drastically worsened after Harry shaded his relatives in his Spare.
