Prince William’s patience with Prince Harry has reportedly reached breaking point. The once inseparable brothers are now locked in what experts call their most damaging feud to date.
The rift between them has been described as a serious concern for the monarchy’s future. With both couples no longer speaking, insiders warn the silence is only deepening resentment.
Royal expert Duncan Larcombe revealed that the bond between the brothers has been shattered. He explained that “there’s no doubt the feud between them is worse than ever.”
Larcombe went on to note that betrayal and anger have been constant themes since Harry’s royal exit. According to him, every passing year without reconciliation only widens the gulf.
He told OK! magazine that time is not healing but hurting the situation. “The longer they don’t speak, the deeper the feud will get,” he warned.
The first major blow, experts say, came in 2021 with Harry and Meghan Markle’s explosive Oprah Winfrey interview. The couple publicly aired grievances about the royal family in a way that stunned the world.
William reportedly viewed that interview as a line that should never have been crossed. For him, family matters were meant to remain private, not global headlines.
But the damage did not end there. When Harry released his memoir Spare in 2023, the relationship between the brothers hit another low.
The book included painful revelations about William, painting him as hot tempered and unsympathetic. Experts claim these passages left William both furious and deeply betrayed.
According to Larcombe, Spare was “incredibly damaging” because it revealed family secrets to millions of readers. William saw this as a breach of trust that may never be forgiven.
The fallout has also placed Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle in an uneasy spotlight. Rumors of tension between the sisters in law have only magnified the feud.

Larcombe added that Harry and Meghan have chosen to live their new life in California on their own terms. However, he suggested that much of their independence comes at a financial cost.
“They’re doing it for cash and to the highest bidder,” he said, pointing to their lucrative deals in Hollywood and beyond. Critics argue this has only widened the contrast between them and the royals back home.
Meanwhile, Prince William and Kate Middleton have doubled down on royal duty. They have taken on heavier workloads and presented themselves as the steady future of the monarchy.
Unlike Harry and Meghan, William and Kate have avoided turning their roles into commercial ventures. This difference in approach has fueled comparisons and, some say, competition between the couples.
The strain shows no signs of easing. While Harry has occasionally expressed openness to reconciling, William remains wary after so many public betrayals.
Experts believe that unless the brothers sit down for a private conversation, the relationship may be damaged beyond repair. Each new silence only seems to strengthen the wall between them.
For royal watchers, the feud has become one of the most defining sagas of the modern monarchy. Once portrayed as the “Fab Four,” the two couples now appear worlds apart.
As Prince William prepares for his future role as King, the absence of his brother at his side is impossible to ignore. Whether the rift will ever heal remains the biggest question facing the royal family
