PRINCE HARRY URGED TO MAKE THE FIRST MOVE TO END RIFT WITH PRINCE WILLIAM

Prince Harry has been urged to bring the feud with his brother, Prince William, to an end by making the first move.

The siblings have been at loggerheads since Harry left his role as a senior working royal in 2020. He went on to make a number of astonishing claims criticising the royal family, notable his brother.

However, while the dukes remain adrift, a royal expert his urged Harry to stop his "petulant" ways and reach out to his older brother.

The advice by Richard Fitzwilliams came as the Duke of Sussex once again publicly blanked a family occasion as William turned 42 last week. The royal author explained how it could be key for Harry to make the first move as William continues to deal with the fact that their father, King Charles, has cancer at the same time as his wife, Princess Kate.

Speaking to the Sun, Fitzwilliams said it's unclear how Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, will respond to the health concerns, saying it would be "highly insensitive" for the pair to throw any more attacks in the direction of the family.

"I think it's abundantly clear that any rift is undesirable, and when individuals are ill who are involved in it, it makes it even more undesirable," he said before saying it would be a "step in the right direction" if the Sussexes said something nice about other royals in public.

He went on to say due to Harry being the one to throw digs at his family for the world to see and hear, it would be up to him to try to clear the air first. However, he admitted it was important that both sides noted their own wrongdoing for any repairs to be possible. He claimed it was important the recognise that "relationships are reciprocal".

However, he was concerned that as with any rift, deep mutual mistrust would have formed already.
