When Queen Elizabeth II died, many hoped that her death would bring Prince Harry and Prince William back together, and perhaps even convince Harry to return to the royal fold. Alas, the relationship between Harry and his family was colder than ever, and there were no signs of Harry trying to make peace with William the entire time he was in the U.K. for the funeral proceedings.
Some fans had hopes for reconciliation when Harry, Meghan, William, and Princess Catherine were seen engaging in a joint walkabout — but the idea was William’s, not Harry’s, and it was incredibly awkward, as detailed by royal biographer Robert Hardman’s book “Charles III: New King. New Court. The Inside Story.” That awkwardness was obvious from pictures and video footage, with one of William’s team members reportedly telling Hardman, “I don’t think either couple found it easy.”
However, royal biographer Omid Scobie contested this account of events during an interview with People, claiming, “It was all led by their father … he was the one that made the suggestion.” Additionally, he claimed that the walkabout nearly didn’t happen. Apparently, William was resistant to the idea of inviting his brother along, and neither of the two planned on making peace despite the loss they’d both suffered. “The thing that surprised me the most was that afterward everyone just went their own ways and nothing happened beyond that,” Scobie said.
