Princess Kate and Prince William gear up for a potentially fraught encounter with Prince Harry.
Reports suggest that Kate Middleton and Prince William harbor apprehensions about the confidentiality of their impending meeting with Prince Harry upon his return to the UK.
In an interview with The Mirror, royal commentator Tom Quinn indicated that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge aim to navigate a delicate reconciliation with the Sussexes, even if it remains superficial. Their primary concern is to prevent their interactions from becoming fodder for a possible sequel to Harry's memoir, "Spare."
Quinn commented, "The sentiment at Kensington Palace suggests that any harmonious interaction between the two couples may remain on the surface. Any discord could potentially be included in a subsequent volume of 'Spare.'"
Tensions between the Wales and Sussex households have been palpable since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's decision to step back from their royal duties in 2020.
Subsequent public statements and interviews from Prince Harry and Meghan have intensified the strain, with both parties airing grievances and leveling criticisms against the royal institution.
In his candid memoir, Prince Harry delved into various conflicts with his elder brother and shed light on the strained relationship between Meghan and Kate.
Recent reports indicate that Prince Harry has opted not to pursue a sequel to "Spare" out of consideration for his father, King Charles, and Kate Middleton, both of whom are currently undergoing cancer treatments.
