Speaking about the fallout between brothers, Helena Chard tells Fox News there is a reason behind Prince William’s silence.

“William’s silence isn’t a mystery. It’s a strategy.”

“Loyalty cuts both ways, and as they say, ‘Betrayal has a long shelf life,’” said Chard.

“Prince William is known to take a harder line than some. He’s setting his agenda for the future of the monarchy. There’s a difference between being ruthless and holding people accountable. He’s fearless and has a strong moral character.”

“William regards his brother as totally untrustworthy,” royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams added tomFox News Digital.

Meanwhile, expert Roya Nikkhah says: “William is someone who does hold a grudge; he does choose sides.”

The Daily Mail quotes: “If someone picks the other side, he remembers that.”
