Prince William, Kate Middleton consider idea of meeting Prince Harry as 'fantasy'

Prince William and Kate Middleton view the idea of meeting with Prince Harry as fantasy, an insider close to royals claimed.

The Princess of Wales and the Duke of Sussex were quite close in former years.

Princess Kate meeting Prince Harry is "the last thing she needs," according to inside sources, dashing hopes for a reunion. While the Duke of Sussex wishes to reconcile with his family, friends of the royals have dismissed these ambitions as “fantasy.”

Sources indicate that the Windsors are exhausted by the ongoing feud with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, which has dominated the royal narrative for several years.

Prince William's friend claimed: “Meeting with Harry is the last thing that William or Catherine want or need right now. It’s a fantasy.”

They continued to tell The Daily Beast: “It’s not about apologies or who said what, it is about protecting his family.

“Kate is recovering from cancer, and they are avoiding stressful situations.”

In February, Buckingham Palace announced King Charles, 75, had been diagnosed with a form of cancer.

This followed corrective surgery for an enlarged prostate which took place at The London Clinic the month before.

After the news was announced, Prince Harry announced he would return to the UK to meet his father.

The two met briefly at Clarence House before the duke returned to the US where he lives with Meghan Markle.

A friend of King Charles and Queen Camilla told the publication the meeting between Harry and his father after the monarch was diagnosed with cancer was a “significant step in the right direction”.

They added: “The idea that Harry and the kids are going to descend on Balmoral this summer is wishful thinking. It’s all just very sad.”
