Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William, are currently not getting along well. Rumors suggest that William, who will be king one day, doesn’t even want to talk to Harry on the phone. There are reports that William and his wife, Kate Middleton, want to try to fix their strained relationship with Harry.
In his memoir titled “Spare,” Harry talks about feeling like he was less important to the royal family compared to William, who is the future king. Their lives were also marked by tragedy when their mother, Princess Diana, died when they were young.
Their once-close brotherly bond has changed, and Harry has even referred to William as his “archnemesis.” A new report reveals that Harry also has issues with his father, Prince Charles, about something related to his brother.
William and Harry had a happy childhood together, but everything changed on August 31, 1997, when Princess Diana died.
After losing their mother, William and Harry had only their father, Charles. Despite being part of the royal family with its rules and traditions, one would expect them to grieve privately like anyone else. But Harry claims this wasn’t the case when Diana died.
In his memoir, Harry remembers the morning he found out about his mother’s death. He was just 12 years old when Charles came to his room and told him, “Darling boy, Mummy’s been in a car crash.”
Harry recalls feeling shocked and says Charles didn’t comfort him much. Charles mentioned Diana’s injuries and how she didn’t survive. Harry remembers Charles putting a hand on his knee and saying, “It’s going to be OK,” but he didn’t hug him.
Harry also mentioned feeling guilt about his mother’s death and how he and William walked around Kensington Palace after her funeral.
“After our mother’s death, there were 50,000 bouquets of flowers for her, and we were there shaking people’s hands, smiling,” he continued. “I’ve seen the videos, and I noticed something strange – the people we shook hands with had wet hands. It turned out they were wiping away tears.”
Princess Diana’s death shocked the entire world. But at that time, many forgot that William and Harry, two young boys grieving for their beloved mother, had to maintain a public appearance.
The two brothers walked behind their mother’s coffin to Westminster Abbey.
Later, Harry criticized the decision for them, aged 12 and 15, to walk through London with the world watching.
“My mother had just died, and I had to walk a long way behind her coffin, surrounded by thousands of people watching me while millions more watched on TV,” he told Newsweek in 2017. “I don’t think any child should be asked to do that, under any circumstances. I don’t think it would happen today.”
Harry and William used to have a strong bond. When Harry turned 21, he said they were very close and could “talk about anything.”
“He is the one person on this earth who, I can actually really, you know, we can talk about anything and we understand each other and give each other support and everything’s fine,” Harry said.
Today, everyone knows that Prince Harry and his brother Prince William are not getting along. William reportedly doesn’t answer Harry’s calls, and they were already having problems before Harry and Meghan decided to leave the royal family.
In his book “Spare,” Harry wrote about a night in 2019 when he and William had a physical fight at his home in London. Harry said William had criticized Meghan, calling her “abrasive,” “rude,” and “difficult,” which Harry believed was just repeating what the media said.
Things got worse, and Harry described how William grabbed him, tore his necklace, and knocked him to the floor.
“He put down his water, called me a name, and then attacked me. It happened so fast. He grabbed me, tore my necklace, and I fell onto the dog’s bowl, which broke and cut my back. I lay there stunned, then got up and told him to leave,” Harry wrote.
Harry also said William encouraged him to fight back, remembering how they fought as kids. But Harry refused. Later, William returned looking sorry and apologized. Harry said he had visible injuries on his back.
Harry even called William his “archnemesis.”
About a year after Harry and Meghan left the royal family, Queen Elizabeth II’s husband, Prince Philip, died. During that time, Harry and William still had a lot of tension between them. Meghan didn’t attend the funeral, but Harry did. The days around the funeral were intense and emotional for the family.
During Prince Philip’s funeral procession, Prince Harry and Prince William didn’t walk side by side. News reports said Queen Elizabeth II decided they shouldn’t walk together. Instead, their cousin Peter Phillips walked between them.
The Mirror reported that the Queen made sure every detail of her husband’s funeral was just right. She wanted the focus to be on honoring his remarkable life without any distractions.
Some reports suggested it was actually William who asked for Peter Phillips to walk between him and Harry.
Before the funeral, Charles, Harry, and William had a private meeting. This was just a month after Harry and Meghan spoke with Oprah Winfrey in a big interview.
Unfortunately, the meeting didn’t go well. Harry was upset about how it turned out. The unplanned two-hour talk at Windsor Castle right after Prince Philip’s funeral felt like a surprise attack to Harry by his father and brother.
“A source told Radar Online that Prince Harry was surprised by an unplanned meeting with his dad and brother after Prince Philip’s funeral. The source said it wasn’t a good way to start making peace.
In the past few years, Prince Harry and his brother have met only a few times. Recently, Harry and Meghan traveled from the US to England for Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.
During the funeral, Prince William and Kate walked together with Harry and Meghan at Windsor Castle. They greeted people and saw the many flowers and tributes for the late monarch.
When Prince Charles became king last year, Meghan Markle did not attend the ceremony. Harry went alone to the UK, but he returned to California shortly after the coronation at Westminster Abbey.
Father’s Day was on Sunday, June 16. Reports say Harry tried to arrange a call with his dad for the special day. According to royal expert Tom Quinn speaking to the Mirror, Harry’s attempts were met with hesitation from his father, advised by Camilla not to do anything that might upset King Charles.”
A royal expert says Harry wants to send a nice message to his father, whom he loves. But their issues aren’t private because their lives are very public.
“He knows everyone is watching to see if he’ll reach out to his dad. He wants to ignore their problems and send a warm message,” explained Tom Quinn.
Harry has tried to fix things, but his relationships with his father and brother aren’t good. Quinn said Harry wants to make up, but there’s a big problem: he feels his dad, King Charles, favors William over him.
“It’s important to remember Harry loves his dad, but he’s upset because Charles seems to side with William in family arguments,” Quinn told the Mirror.

Boy Saves Millionaire’s Granddaughter and Takes Her Home – What He Discovers in Their Mansion Leaves Him Numb
A heroic act by a young boy transformed a routine day into an unforgettable adventure. Little did he know, the life he saved belonged to a millionaire’s granddaughter, leading him to an astonishing discovery.

Jackson was walking down the street, focused on typing a text message. Suddenly, he was distracted by a chaotic scene unfolding ahead. A little girl on a scooter sped past him, heading straight for a busy intersection. She didn’t notice the red traffic light.
Without thinking, Jackson lunged forward and grabbed the edge of her dress. The girl shrieked but didn’t lose her balance. A moment later, the scooter crashed under the wheels of a speeding car. The girl, now safely in Jackson’s arms, trembled but was unharmed.

The girl’s house was just a few blocks away. As they approached, Jackson noticed it was a grand mansion, surrounded by a lush park and an elaborate playground. He wondered how a child from such a place ended up on the street alone.
“Wow…” was all Jackson could manage.

Inside the mansion, they were led to a vast hall adorned with fine art and luxurious decor. But Jackson’s attention was caught by a colored portrait with a black frame. It was a portrait of him!
“What the…?” Jackson’s voice trailed off.
Before he could process this surreal scene, a man’s voice interrupted the silence. “I see you’ve found your way home, Jackson.”
Jackson turned to see an elderly man. The girl ran towards the man and embraced him.

Jackson explained that he had saved her from danger. The man smiled warmly and introduced himself as Phillip Edwards, revealing that this was his home. Still processing everything, Jackson asked why a photo of him was hanging on their wall.
Phillip sighed, “Jackson, there’s something you need to know. You’re my grandson.”
Jackson’s eyes widened in shock. “What? How is that possible?”

Phillip continued, his voice filled with emotion, “I have been keeping an eye on you for years. Your reaction now shows how little you knew about this. Your mother ran away from home because I was forcing her to marry a man from another rich family. She was pregnant with her first love’s child at the time and didn’t tell us.”
Jackson felt his knees weaken. “She never told me any of this.”

“She cut ties with everyone,” Phillip said, his eyes moistening. “I had her followed and discovered she was expecting. I tried to contact her, but she wanted nothing to do with us. She decided to live a normal life and became a teacher.”
Jackson was at a loss for words, his mind racing with this new revelation. “So, all this time, you knew about me?”
Phillip nodded. “Yes, and I’m so sorry for everything. I wanted to make things right but didn’t know how to approach you.”
Jackson looked around the grand mansion, trying to process everything. “This is overwhelming. I don’t know what to say.”

Phillip placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. “Take your time, Jackson. We have all the time in the world to figure this out together.”
The conversation left Jackson reeling, but he knew one thing for certain—his life had just changed forever.
Jackson returned home that day, his mind swirling with the revelations. He feared bringing up the subject with his mother. He understood why she left home and didn’t want to upset her.

Days passed, and Jackson continued to visit the mansion, thanks to his grandfather, who told him he could stop by anytime. He got to know more about his younger cousin, Layla, and his aunts and uncles. Yet, it bothered him that his mother had no idea he had discovered his other family.
Jackson often reflected on his own life during these visits. He had grown up an only child, and his mother raised him single-handedly while on the run. She had always been his rock, providing for him and nurturing him with unwavering love and strength.

He thought about the sacrifices his mother made to give him a normal life. She worked tirelessly as a teacher, ensuring he had everything he needed.
Her determination and resilience had always inspired him. Knowing now that she had cut ties with her family to protect him and her love, Jackson felt a deep sense of gratitude and admiration for her.

However, the discovery of his extended family brought him mixed emotions. He enjoyed spending time with Layla, laughing and playing in the mansion’s playground. He found solace in the company of his aunts and uncles, who welcomed him with open arms. But there was a lingering unease in his heart.
He wondered if his mother missed her family. Did she ever think about them? Did she regret her decision to leave? These questions weighed heavily on Jackson’s mind. He wanted to share his newfound connections with his mother, but he feared reopening old wounds.

His grandfather, Phillip, became a guiding presence in his life. They spent hours talking, with Phillip sharing stories about Jackson’s mother and their family history. Jackson learned about the family’s legacy, their successes, and the challenges they faced.
He appreciated the bond forming between him and his grandfather, yet he couldn’t shake the feeling of betraying his mother’s trust. As he reflected on his life, he realized how much he had missed by not knowing his extended family.

The laughter, the stories, the sense of belonging—these were things he had always yearned for but never knew he could have. He felt torn between his loyalty to his mother and his desire to embrace this new chapter of his life.
Jackson knew he had to tread carefully. He needed to find a way to bridge the gap between his two worlds without causing his mother pain.

The journey ahead was uncertain, but he was determined to navigate it with compassion and understanding, honoring both his mother’s sacrifices and his newfound family connections.
Finally, one day, Jackson gathered the courage to tell his mother about his discovery. As they were sitting in their cozy living room looking through magazines, he took a deep breath.

“Mom, I need to tell you something,” Jackson began, his voice trembling slightly. “I accidentally met your family.”
His mother’s eyes widened in surprise, and she leaned forward. “What do you mean, Jackson?”
He recounted the events of that fateful day, from saving the little girl to meeting Phillip Edwards and learning about his extended family. His mother listened quietly, her expression a mix of shock and sadness.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Jackson asked softly. “Why did you keep this a secret?”
Tears welled up in his mother’s eyes. “I left because I had to, Jackson. I chose love over wealth. Your father was my first love, and when I found out I was pregnant with you, I knew I couldn’t stay. They wanted me to marry someone else, someone rich.”
She paused, wiping a tear from her cheek. “I don’t regret my decision. Your father was a good man. He loved us, and I wouldn’t change anything about my past, even though he passed away. We had a wonderful life, and you were worth every sacrifice.”

Jackson reached out and held her hand. “I understand, Mom. I just wanted you to know that I’ve met them. Grandpa Phillip, Layla, and everyone… They’re not what I expected. They welcomed me with open arms.”
She squeezed his hand, her eyes softening. “I’m glad you’ve found them, Jackson. But remember, we built our own family, too. You are my greatest achievement, and I am so proud of you.”

Jackson felt a sense of relief wash over him. “I love you, Mom. Thank you for everything.”
“I love you too, Jackson,” she replied, pulling him into a hug. “We’ll figure this out together, one step at a time.”
Jackson felt a new sense of hope. The journey ahead was still uncertain, but with his mother’s support, he knew he could navigate it with love and understanding.

Relieved, Jackson went back to his grandfather and told him that his mother knew they had found each other. “Grandpa, she knows. We talked about everything.”
Phillip nodded, a thoughtful look on his face. “How did she take it?”
“She was surprised, but she understands. She explained why she left and said she has no regrets about her choice,” Jackson replied.
Phillip’s eyes softened. “I’m glad she understands. I always hoped she would come back one day.”
“Will you reach out to her?” Jackson asked, hopeful.

Phillip shook his head gently. “No, Jackson. Your mother should be the one to make the first step. It has to be her decision. We can’t force it on her.”
Jackson nodded, understanding the wisdom in his grandfather’s words. “I see. I just hope that one day she’ll be ready.”
“Me too, son,” Phillip said, placing a comforting hand on Jackson’s shoulder. “Me too.”
With that, Jackson felt a deeper sense of peace. He knew the path ahead was still uncertain, but he had faith that with patience and understanding, his family could heal and grow closer in time.
