Prince Harry rift is constant strain on Prince William: There is a lot of regret
Prince William is continuing to feel the "constant strain" of his and his brother Prince Harry's "rift", a royal expert says.
The 39 year old and his younger brother, 37, were reported to have grown apart from one another following Harry's move to the US with his wife Meghan Markle in 2020.
Royal expert Duncan Larcombe tells OK!: "It’s very clear to those that know William that the rift with his brother is not something that he can just forget about.
"It's very much, as you can imagine, a constant strain. It is for Harry as well, they’re both as stubborn as mules.

"That’s not great when two best friends and brothers fall out. If anybody knows what it’s like to fall out with a best friend or a brother who was close to you when you were growing up, it’s not nice. You miss them."
He continued: "There is a lot of regret there and I think it’s on both sides.
"Everything else seems to be going right for William at this time, he’s riding the crest of a wave in most aspects of his life, but sadly he has the absence of Prince Harry, his brother in his life.
"William’s always had a set plan of where he wants to be in five years, how he’s going to transition from prince to husband to father to future king.

"He’s basically ticked all of those boxes that he set out to tick when he was graduating from university but the one thing not going right for him is something that is deeply upsetting."
However, Duncan remains hopeful that the brothers will be able to repair their fraught relationship, adding: "I think there’ll always be a way back.
"These are brothers that glued together as they lost their mother, they went through that bereavement and as is quite clear they dealt with it in different ways but they were very close.
"Every week the rift continues, Harry and William are the two people who are missing out the most."
