Prince Harry is said to be still waiting for an apology from his brother Prince William and sister-in-law Kate Middleton, with the possible reason why now unveiled.

The Mirror revealed the Duke of Sussex “wants to reconcile” with his brother amid their huge ongoing feud, with him and Meghan Markle seemingly expecting an apology from the Waleses. Royal expert and author Tom Quinn exclusively told The Mirror: “He [Prince Harry] wants to reconcile with his brother so that the children can have some kind of a relationship, but he and Meghan still think that a grovelling apology needs to come from William and Kate first.” The reason why Prince Harry might want an apology from his brother is unknown, but it could be down to something that the Palace once said, which Princess Kate was reportedly behind.

Back in 2021, a year after the Sussexes stepped down from their royal duties, the couple sat down with Oprah Winfrey for a tell-all chat after departing both the Royal Family and England. In this televised chat, the couple revealed a number of bombshells, including touching on how senior royals had discussed and “raised concerns” of the colour of their then-unborn son Archie’s skin tone.

Responding to a number of claims and bombshells, Buckingham Palace released a statement which read: “The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan. The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately. Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved family members.”

In his book Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown, ex-royal correspondent for The Times Valentine Low detailed alleged conversations between senior royal members and aides ahead of drafting the retort. Mr Low wrote: “While some have attributed ‘recollections may vary’ to [Clive] Alderton [King Charles’ private secretary], more than one source has said the author was Jean-Christophe Gray, William’s new private secretary. At least two senior officials in other households were against its inclusion, because they feared it would rile Harry and Meghan.

“But once the phrase had been added to the draft, it was – according to another source – the Duchess of Cambridge [now the Princess of Wales] who pressed home the argument it should remain. It was Kate who clearly made the point, ‘History will judge this statement and unless this phrase or a phrase like it is included, everything they have said will be taken as true.’” However, Charles and Kate’s names were published in the Dutch edition of journalist Omid Scobie’s book Endgame in regards to who the “senior royal members” were. The book was quickly pulled from shelves.
