The Windsors and the Sussexes are at it again, but this time, trouble seems to be bubbling behind the scenes, and is being filtered through rumours and fears rather than outright allegations that the newly returned Harry and Meghan were known for, between 2019 to 2025.

To shed light on the back and forth happening between him and his brother Prince William, a well-placed source came forward.

They sat alongside Closer Online when delivering the insight and started off by admitting, “Harry and Meghan feel it's time they made peace with William and Kate. They think it's a good opportunity to have a productive and healing conversation.”

But more so because of the impact Earl Spencer made in his newly released book Swan Song. The reason for allegedly feeling ‘vindicated’ as mentioned earlier is because “they think it must be time for William and Kate to take them more seriously.”

Moreover, “they also believe that, now they're back on British soil, they're entitled to have a foot back in the door,” the insider added. “Harry genuinely wants to have a better relationship with his brother, and Meghan is eager for them to start being welcomed back into royal circles.”

But more than that, there’s a lot a layer of satisfaction, which the source didn’t touch on until the end. When they did reference it their words were, “they feel Earl Spencer's book backs their experience with the family, and how it can be a very cold and unforgiving institution.”
