Kate Middleton’s brutal realization about Prince Harry feud after ‘being thrown under bus

The relationship between Prince Harry and some of the other senior royals has been notably strained in recent years, but Kate Middleton could be the key to mending the ongoing feud, according to a royal expert. For many years, Kate and her brother-in-law Prince Harry had a very close relationship – Harry even referred to her as the “sister I’ve never had and always wanted” in his memoir, Spare.

However, things have changed significantly in recent years. The shock exit of Harry and Meghan Markle from royal duties in 2020, coupled with their candid revelations about life within the monarchy and allegations against some senior royals, have left their relationships with much of the House of Windsor seemingly in ruins.

Despite rushing back to the UK for King Charles’s cancer diagnosis earlier this year and attending his father’s coronation, Harry’s relationship with his elder brother Prince William is reported to still be frosty, with the two brothers far from reconciling. Yet, one expert believes that if anyone can bring Harry back into the royal fold, it’s Kate.

After a year of health challenges, the future Queen may be more inclined to encourage peace between William and his brother.

On The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, royal commentator Katie Nicholls divulged that though Kate might feel personal betrayal by Harry, her cancer experience could shift her stance on family disputes. “Kate’s been thrown under the bus by Harry, he’s said hurtful things about her, he’s brought the children into the narrative. I think the Prince of Wales remains very, very angry and upset and feels very betrayed,” she remarked, stressing that timing would be essential for any healing to begin, reports the Mirror.

Possibly the Princess of Wales is still open to a reconciliation in some form. I still feel it’s quite early. But I do think when you go through something like a cancer diagnosis and you go through the sort of journey that she has done, and you confront your own mortality, you realise life is short.

She went on, emphasizing the necessity of mending fractures in familial ties, particularly within the royal family. “It’s far too short for rifts and family feuds. And perhaps that will be a role that she will play at some point in healing that rift, because I think we look to the Royal Family as a symbol of unity. We will want to see them together at Christmas, this will be the sixth Christmas that Harry won’t have been a part of.

Nicholls also highlighted Kate’s awareness of her role and responsibilities as the Duchess of Cambridge, including setting an example for others.

When Kate revealed she had started chemotherapy in a heartfelt video message to the nation, asking for privacy for her and her children during this tough period, Harry and Meghan were quick to offer their support both publicly and, as reports suggest, privately. “We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace,” the couple stated shortly after Kate’s announcement.

After completing her chemotherapy in September, Kate has been gradually resuming royal engagements, seen at the Cenotaph on Remembrance Sunday and hosting her traditional Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey. Yet, she emphasized that her priority remains to “stay cancer-free” and is taking life “one day at a time.”

In her frank video marking the end of her treatment, Kate shared how the daunting experience with cancer gave her a “new perspective on everything”, prompting her and her husband to cherish the “simple yet important things in life.”
