Prince William, who has reportedly received an invitation from his estranged brother Harry to attend the Duke’s milestone, is reportedly not keen to grace the event.
The Duke of Sussex is said to have invited the Prince of Wales and the wider royal family to his Invictus Games service at St Paul’s Cathedral in London on Tuesday. But, he has not received any response from the royal family.
Speculation is rife as to whether or not Harry will reunite with William. However a media outlet has revealed the future King’s possible reaction to Harry’s invitation.
An insider told the Mirror: “Harry has privately expressed a wish to sit down with his brother but now is not the time as the relationship between the two brothers still remains extremely fractured.”
William, who is already in tense due to his wife Kate Middleton’s health, won’t betray the future queen for his brother who has disgraced the couple in Spare.
However, the Princess of Wales reportedly wants William and Harry to end their rift and reunite as their gesture would ease King Charles’s tension.
“Future Queen Kate will not defy any of William’s decision regarding Meghan and Harry as she has moved on from the Sussexes’ drama,” a separate source added.
PR expert Lynn Carratt told the Mirror: “It seems unlikely that Prince William will be part of the reunion. He is likely to be out of London and has engagements booked in for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly for next Thursday or Friday.”
She suggested Harry to bring children with him to melth hearts of his royal relatives who also want to meet them, saying: “Though Prince Harry is said to be travelling alone, it would have been nice if he could bring his children along to spend some time with their grandfather.”
There were also reports that King Charles could invite his son and daughter-in-law to Balmoral Castle in Scotland this summer to see his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Harry is expected to stay in hotel during his three day visit as his request to stay in Windsor Castle has been rejected by the royal family, according to GB News.
