In an opinion piece for Woman and Home, royal expert Emily Andrews has claimed that it's King Charles wish that peace should reign.

The expert said it has been reported that Charles deputy private secretary Theo Rycroft has made it his ‘number one mission’ to reunite the warring brothers.

If William and Harry were at least on texting terms, it would certainly make it much easier for King Charles to see the duke and his children and even attend the Invictus Games in Birmingham in 2027, she continued.

Theo has made it his ambition to reunite William and Harry, with a source saying that he believes the situation has become ‘ridiculous’ and is keen to resolve it.

King Charles aide has also worked with William before, on several high-profile international engagements.

Meanwhile, William and Harry are reportedly not on speaking terms for several years.

Even, the Prince of Wales has banned any mention of Harry and Meghan after their criticism.

The expert says, “William reportedly banned any mention of Harry and Meghan, not wanting to get involved in their drama.”

Emily Andrews further claimed, “I understand that Harry tried to privately reach out to his brother via text and WhatsApp, but never received any reply. He then stopped trying.”
