The relationship between the brothers have been fractured for some years

Prince William is reportedly said to be so unhappy with Prince Harry that he ‘doesn’t want anything to do with’ him.
The brothers have been estranged for some time, with the once-close pair seeing very little of each other in recent years.
According to royal commentator Daisy McAndrew, Harry’s rift with the Royal Family is far from over despite this week meeting with his father King Charles for the first time in 19 months.
On The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, she spoke about the rift, describing it as an ‘ongoing problem’.

When The Sun’s royal editor Matt Wilkinson claimed the rift seemed ‘only kind of one-sided’, with Harry ‘lobbying the complaints’, Daisy said: “But it’s also William who doesn’t want anything to do with Harry.”
She went on: “I think we’ve both said it’s early days, but this is the beginning, potentially…
“Well, baby steps. And also, I still think that William’s a big problem. As in, I don’t blame him at all.
“I don’t mean that in a derogatory way.
“But certainly my impression is he doesn’t feel comfortable with this rift being fixed and he, I don’t think, would have wanted this meeting to have gone ahead.
“My impression is that he just thinks Harry’s too much trouble and he doesn’t want anything to do with him and he would rather the King didn’t as well.
“So he’s going to have to be brought onside if they’re going to fix this.”
The paper’s photographer Arthur Edwards said repairing the fractured relationship between the brothers would be ‘difficult’, The Sun reports.
He added: “But listen, who knows what’s around the corner?
“He might suddenly come and live here permanently, Harry, and then we’ll be saying, “oh, that’d be brilliant”.
“But it’s the start. As Daisy said, put the ointment on the wound and just see if it works.”
Harry was this week in the UK for a four-day trip and saw Charles for a private meeting at Clarence House.
The last time the Duke of Sussex saw the monarch was last February after Charles announced he had cancer.
