Prince Harry made some controversial allegations about his elder brother Prince William in his autobiography, Spare. Subsequent to these revelations, the media has been rife with conjecture concerning the potential reconciliation between the Royal siblings.

Rumour has it that both Prince William, next in line for the monarchy, and the reigning monarch himself have played instrumental roles in restricting public appearances from Prince Andrew and Prince Harry.

In an interview with OK!, Jennie Bond, former BBC correspondent specialising in Royal affairs, described William as a headstrong character, stating: “William has always been a strong character. I think his broken childhood made him tough and resolute.”

She further stated: “He now has the reputation of being stubborn and, once his mind is made up, he sticks to his decision. Obviously, as heir to the throne, his word carries a lot of weight in the family and I think it’s true that he has been prepared to take a tough stand on a number of issues, including Andrew and Harry.”
