Prince Harry Fears the Worst for Kate Middleton As Insiders Reveal His Growing Concern For Kate
In a surprising turn of emotion from across the Atlantic, Prince Harry is reportedly deeply worried about his sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, as she continues her quiet battle with cancer.
According to Radar Online, royal insiders claim the Duke of Sussex is increasingly uneasy about Kate’s well-being, especially after her sudden absence from the Royal Ascot, an event she was initially expected to attend.
Despite the years of tension between the Sussexes and the rest of the Royal Family, it seems Harry’s protective instincts haven’t faded—particularly when it comes to Kate, who has long been regarded as a steadying force within the monarchy.
“Harry worries Kate might be struggling more than people realize,” a royal insider told the outlet. “He knows she’s the type to put on a brave face no matter what she’s going through, so of course he’s very concerned.”
Kate’s recent public appearances—most notably her dignified return at Trooping the Colour—were hailed by the public as a sign that she was on the mend. But behind the scenes, royal sources now reveal that the Princess of Wales may be facing far more difficulty than she lets on.
The concern intensified after Kate’s unexpected no-show at Royal Ascot on June 18, just four days after appearing radiant, though noticeably thinner, on the Buckingham Palace balcony. Her name had even been included in the official carriage list for the royal procession, only to be withdrawn at the last minute—raising eyebrows and fears alike.
Insiders now say Kate was “disappointed” to cancel the appearance, but knew she needed to “find the right balance” as she transitions back into royal duties. While she’s eager to resume her role as the future queen, doctors have reportedly urged caution, and the palace remains tight-lipped about the true extent of her recovery.
“Things have not been plain sailing,” one source admitted. “Kate knows she should not overdo things, even though she wants to be present for her family and the public.”

Harry, now living in California with Meghan Markle and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, has been keeping a watchful eye from afar. Despite the emotional and geographical distance between him and the Waleses, his concern for Kate appears to transcend past grudges.
This isn’t the first time Harry has expressed compassion for Kate. In interviews following Megxit, the Duke has consistently separated his relationship with his sister-in-law from the animosity he feels toward other royal family members. And now, as Kate quietly navigates post-cancer recovery, Harry’s protective instincts seem to have reignited.
Behind the scenes, Harry is said to be trying to mend fractured ties with his family, with plans to invite King Charles, Prince William, and Kate to the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham.
While Meghan reportedly remains reluctant to return to the U.K., insiders claim she supports Harry’s solo efforts to extend an olive branch.
But whether the Royals will accept Harry’s outreach remains uncertain. For now, Kate’s health has taken priority—and even estranged family members are feeling the weight of her battle.
As one royal expert put it, “Harry may be oceans away, but some bonds run deeper than drama. His concern for Kate is very real—and it could be the first quiet step toward healing a very public rift.”
