William and Harry clash over Diana tribute plans

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle brought their children, Archie and Lilibet, to the Oval Lake at Althorp earlier this month, marking a quiet moment of reflection ahead of the 30th anniversary of Diana’s death. This visit followed a private meeting with King Charles and Queen Camilla at Highgrove. However, the trip has deepened the rift between the royal brothers. Insiders suggest William is deeply suspicious of his brother’s intentions, fearing the Sussexes are gathering content for a new documentary project.

William has reportedly expressed frustration over Harry’s persistent comparisons between Meghan and their late mother. These tensions are compounded by concerns that the couple’s focus on the Princess of Wales’s legacy serves to bolster Meghan’s commercial brand. While Harry maintains he is acting out of a sense of duty to preserve his mother’s memory, William considers the association deeply offensive. The Prince of Wales has privately indicated he will not tolerate what he views as a exploitation of their mother’s history, marking a stark contrast to their joint efforts during the 20th-anniversary commemorations in 2017.
