Smoothing it out. Duchess Kate is doing her best to salvage the relationship between Prince William and Prince Harry, an insider exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.
“There’s a small glimpse of hope of saving the brothers from never speaking again: Kate,” the source tells Us of the Duchess of Cambridge, 40. “She can sense that despite everything that has happened, William still feels the loss of Harry.”
The Duke of Cambridge, also 40, and his younger brother, 37, have been at odds since Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior working royals in March 2020. The Invictus Games founder and the former military pilot have seen each other several times since then, but there’s still tension between the duo.
Kate, for her part, is “frantically trying to play peacemaker,” but so far her efforts have proved unsuccessful.
“[She] had a quiet word with the boys separately, even going as far as calling Harry in Montecito and suggesting that he reach out to William on his birthday,” the insider adds. “The issue is William and Harry are both overly stubborn, so there’s not much hope.”
