A memorial ceremony was held on August 29 at St. Mary's Church in Norfolk, England, to honor Prince Harry's uncle, Lord Robert Fellowes, who was his late mother Diana's brother-in-law.
Prince Harry made an unexpected appearance at the funeral despite the ongoing rivalry that exists within his family. While their father, King Charles III, who was battling illness, remained at Balmoral in Scotland. The 39-year-old plainly avoided his estranged brother, Prince William, despite the fact that the two were sat close to each other.
“Most people were astounded that [Prince] Harry came. You could tell he was very pleased to see everybody," an unnamed attendee told Star Magazine.
Call it "Operation Bring Harry in from the Cold." Four years after the prince and his wife, Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, resigned from their royal duties and relocated to Montecito, California.
Anonymous insiders have informed the entertainment news outlet that the father of Archie, who is five years old, and Lilibet, who is three years old, is beginning to take hesitant moves toward rejoining the royal family. Nevertheless, his actions have caused alarm bells to ring in the palace.
The connection between Prince William and his younger brother has been a source of contention, but Prince William's wife, Princess Kate, and King Charles have been having private conversations about how to mend the strained relationship.
“They’re sitting down, working on an action plan to see if they can come up with a compromise in the interest of peace. But it’s not easy," the undisclosed informant stated.
In addition to his unanticipated attendance at the memorial ceremony, it has been claimed that Prince Harry has been reaching out to old friends from his time spent in England. This has led some people to conclude that he is seeking a low-key method to restart some aspects of royal life.
After he abandoned the monarchy, which is commonly referred to as "The Firm," Prince Harry, who was once considered to be one of the most popular members of the royal family, was subjected to severe criticism for his behavior, which included lashing out at his family and Meghan appearing to want to capitalize on their royal connections.
“It is a delicate situation that requires delicate handling,” the tipster noted.
It appears that he has a strategy. After severing ties with consultants located in the United States, it is believed that the prince is consulting with "old school" experts from the United Kingdom to guide his subsequent actions.
“[Prince] Harry wants to end his exile. He’s looking for a way to make amends now and is determined to swallow his pride and get himself out of this mess," the mole stated.
Despite the fact that his caustic memoir, "Spare," is now available in paperback, Prince Harry has declined to update it with any new information. Something that could be interpreted as an indication that he is beginning to rein down his anti-royal rants.
“Maybe this is an olive branch. He won’t antagonize his family more than he already has — and he would be wise not to," the tattler shared.
In the meantime, Princess Kate, who is also getting treatment for an unidentified form of cancer, and King Charles have discovered that they are the renegade royal's hidden accomplices, as per AP News. Both parties are concerned about Prince William's unwillingness to forgive his brother, who was formerly quite close to him, according to the spy.
“[Princess] Kate has gone through moments of frustration with [Prince] William for not being able to find it in his heart to be the bigger person. She’s worried about him. Seeing how upset and full of anger he is toward Harry is concerning, it’s just not healthy," the naysayer shared.
Her husband's father has become a trusted confidant for her. “There’s really no one better she can talk to about the situation. They’ve developed such a close rapport after going through so much together," the source stated.
At the age of 75, King Charles is confronted with his own predicament. “He doesn’t want to undermine William, especially after all the insults that were directed toward him and Kate in Harry’s memoir. Nor does he want to turn his back on Harry. It’s a miserable situation," the insider explained.
As for Meghan, the American duchess of multiracial descent has expressed her belief that the royal family did not adequately protect her from racist insults in the media and did not respond to her requests for assistance with her mental health.
“The way she sees it, The Firm is a bed of toxicity,” notes the insider, adding, “Harry has a long way to go before the royals welcome him back with open arms, but there is a chance for him. It won’t be so easy for Meghan.”
