Kate Middleton has reportedly made a decision about her relationship with Prince Harry, especially as she and Prince William prepare for their future roles on the throne. Royal author Christopher Andersen recently shared his thoughts on the situation, emphasizing Kate’s loyalty to her husband and her current stance on the current rift within the royal family.
In a conversation with Online radarsAndersen highlighted Kate’s priorities, explaining that while she loves Prince Harry, her first loyalty is to William. “Above all, Kate is loyal to her husband. “She completely understands why William is still furious,” he said, adding that Kate isn’t going to pressure William to reconcile while he has so much to handle.
Andersen also reflected on Harry’s strained relationship with the royal family, recalling the last time Harry visited Balmoral Castle in September 2022, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. His absence from the property this summer further underscores the deepening divide between him and the rest of the family. “His absence from Balmoral this summer is just one more sign that the royal family, including Kate, prefers to keep Harry out of sight and out of mind for the time being.” Andersen pointed out.
In the early stages of family breakdown, Kate reportedly He made efforts to reunite the brothers again. One of the most memorable moments was during Prince Philip’s funeral in April 2021, when Kate stepped aside to allow Harry and William to walk and talk together after the service. Andersen described it as “one of the most moving scenes in this entire saga.”
However, despite their efforts, the relationship between the brothers remained strained. “When that didn’t work, Kate kept trying to soften her husband up,” Andersen explained. But after the publication of Harry’s memoirs Replacement—in which she was openly critical of both William and his father, King Charles—Kate’s attempts at reconciliation proved futile. “Kate understandably threw her hands up when Harry trashed William and Charles in his memoirs two years later,” Andersen added.
As a result, both Harry and Meghan are no longer the focus of the Prince and Princess of Wales’s attention. Kate, according to Andersen, has focused her attention on her health and her family, leaving the drama with Harry and Meghan behind. “The bigger picture no longer includes Harry,” Andersen said, emphasizing that the royal family’s priorities now center on Kate’s well-being, the future of her family and the monarchy.
While tensions between Prince Harry and the royal family remain unresolved, it’s clear that for Kate and William, the focus has moved beyond the breakup as they prepare for their roles in shaping the future of the crown.
