Princess Kate is reportedly under intense pressure to end all communication with Prince Harry after his explosive comments about the royal family — comments that have left Prince William furious and once again deepened the family rift.
Sources claim William has firmly told his wife that she should cease all contact with Harry after his recent BBC interview, which aired shortly after he lost his High Court appeal against the Home Office. In the interview, Harry didn’t hold back, calling the legal decision an “establishment stitch-up” and suggesting that King Charles should “step aside” and allow officials to “do what they need to do.”
That controversial remark, aimed squarely at his own father, has sent shockwaves through the royal household — and pushed William to draw a hard line, even with his own wife.
A royal insider revealed to Radar Online, “William is furious that Harry’s speaking out again and doing interviews – he’s convinced this isn’t the end of it.” The source added that William has warned other royals to keep their distance from the Sussexes, fearing anything they say could later be used against them in interviews, memoirs, or documentaries.
According to the insider, William isn’t fond of putting Kate in a tough position but believes it’s necessary to protect the family. “What he’s most worried about is that anything Kate says to Harry could be twisted or resurface later – especially if there’s another book, or if Meghan decides to tell her own side of the story.”
Harry has already rocked the monarchy with his bombshell memoir Spare, and speculation is mounting that Meghan Markle could release a book of her own — something the royals fear could reignite old wounds and expose new secrets.
Despite the mounting pressure, Kate reportedly doesn’t believe cutting off Harry is the right move. The Princess of Wales has always been seen as a peacemaker, and insiders say she’s deeply upset about how far the relationships have deteriorated.

“Kate’s deeply upset with Harry,” the source admits, “but she’s also frustrated that William and the rest of the family have allowed things to get this bad. It’s heartbreaking for her to watch the family so publicly divided.”
It’s no secret that Kate once shared a strong bond with Harry — the two were famously close during the early years of William and Kate’s marriage. But that warmth has since faded, especially following Harry and Meghan’s royal exit in 2020 and the subsequent interviews and revelations that followed.
The Sussexes now live in California with their children, Archie and Lilibet, far from the daily affairs of the British monarchy. But their impact is still being felt thousands of miles away — particularly when Harry chooses to speak out, as he did recently.
Kate, who has been recovering from health issues and managing public responsibilities, reportedly feels that the royal family cannot afford more scandals. She’s trying to hold things together as best she can, the insider says, because “she knows the family can’t withstand any more tragedies or scandals.”
As tensions escalate, the future of the monarchy’s internal relationships appears more uncertain than ever. With King Charles battling health issues, Prince William preparing to take on more responsibility, and Kate striving to be the stabilizing force, the spotlight on the royal drama only intensifies.
Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan remain silent on William’s latest move — but given their history, the next chapter in this royal rift may not be far off.
