Prince Harry is reportedly not happy with Prince William and Kate Middleton’s upcoming high-profile visit to the US.
According to reports, the Duke of Sussex sees this trip as his brother stepping into “his territory,” raising fears of fresh tension between the estranged siblings.
Speaking with OK! Magazine, palace sources revealed that the Prince and Princess of Wales are set to play a major role alongside King Charles and Queen Camilla during next year’s US events marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
The visit is being seen as highly symbolic given that Harry and Meghan have made America their home since leaving royal duties in 2020.
"It's shaping up to be one of the most significant diplomatic events in years. The King is set to take the lead, but William and Kate are fully prepared to represent Britain,” they said.
The source added, “The Palace is determined they will play a major role regardless. But as America has become the Sussexes' base, the visit could explode into all-out war between William and Harry.
“Harry will see it as his brother invading 'his' territory,” the insider warned the Waleses.
The trip will happen at the same time as the United States’ 250th anniversary celebrations, similar to Queen Elizabeth II’s 1976 tour for the country’s 200th birthday.
The report said President Donald Trump asked William and Kate to lead the British delegation and even had a new $300 million ballroom built at the White House for the event.
However, he "no intention" of inviting Harry or Meghan with a Washington-based diplomatic source saying, "What President Trump wants is spectacle and status.”
“In his view, that's Charles, Camilla, William and Kate – not California-based celebrities."
Warning the royal family, a source said that Meghan “hates the idea of being overshadowed in the US. There's real worry she could schedule her own events to compete with the tour."
