In a touching yet bittersweet moment, brothers William and Harry came together yesterday, both grappling with their shared loss.
They attended the funeral of their uncle, Lord Robert Fellows, who passed away last month at the age of 82.
This event marked a significant moment for the pair, who have been locked in a public feud for years.
Harry made a quiet return from the United States to join William at St. Mary’s Church in Snettisham.
The atmosphere was somber as they paid their respects alongside other Spencer family members.
It was the first time they found themselves at the same event since King Charles‘s coronation last May, a day that ended without any meaningful interaction between them.
Despite their physical proximity, the brothers did not sit together or engage in conversation during the service.
It’s been reported that their communication has dwindled significantly since their grandmother’s funeral nearly two years ago.
Sources close to the royal family indicate that William would prefer Harry not to attend his own coronation when that day arrives.
While they appeared to set aside their differences for the sake of the occasion, signs of their ongoing estrangement were evident.
Both brothers entered and exited the church discreetly, maintaining a low profile.
Tragically, they chose to sit apart at the back of the church, highlighting the distance that has grown between them.
An insider revealed that their presence only caught attention toward the end of the service.
Observers noted the lack of interaction, emphasizing how they remained silent and distant from one another throughout the ceremony.
Royal biographer Ingrid Seward pointed out that Harry shares a close bond with Robert Fellows’ widow, Jane, and her sister Sarah, who have been fixtures at Harry’s UK events, including Archie‘s christening.
For Harry, the idea of encountering his estranged brother may not have been as daunting as it might have been for William.
It’s understood that both men maintained a civil demeanor, recognizing that a funeral is not the appropriate setting for unresolved issues or emotional confrontations.
The last time the public saw William and Harry together was during a walkabout in Windsor following their grandmother’s passing in September 2022.
Since then, Harry has been vocal about his grievances towards the royal family, particularly targeting William in his revealing Netflix series and his memoir, “Spare.”
