After not seeing each other for a year, Harry and William finally speak face to face at Philippe’s funeral from Edinburgh and this is (more or less) what happened.
«[Los hermanos] They know Saturday isn’t about them, it’s about honoring their grandfather’s memory and supporting their grandmother. So had indicated a source The Daily Telegraph ahead of William and Harry’s anticipated public meeting at the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral. The solemn ceremony that took place on Saturday, April 17, was essential in understanding what terms Diana’s children are in. And while there was apparently no hard evidence for the brothers’ feelings, there are some speculations as to how things happened.
At the end of the ceremony
It all started with the parade behind his grandfather’s coffin through the quadrant from Windsor Castle to St. George’s Chapel. William and Harry were separated by their cousin, Peter Phillips, but the brothers met briefly at the close of the ceremony.
In accordance with Express UK, there was lip reading in the brief moments when they both took off their masks. According to the outlet, William told his brother that the church service had been “wonderful,” to which Harry replied, “it was just the way he wanted it” – referring to his grandfather.
They also agreed that the music had been very beautiful – and curiously, Felipe was the one who chose the hymns to play at his funeral.
In between the walk, William and Harry were also seen talking Kate Middleton –whom they referred to as an “intervener” to promote good meeting between brothers and sisters.
William asked not to be with Harry at the funeral?
According to sources from the Mail on Sunday, “This is an example of the coldness that Harry faced on his first return to the UK after the controversial interview with Oprah Winfrey.” And now the tabloid published that testimonials showed that William asked not to be with his brother on the day of the funeral.
“Ironically, Prince Andrew was the only one who showed sympathy for Harry,” said a source. As for the others, there is a great sense of protection towards the queen and resentment towards Harry. There is little sympathy for him after what Meghan said to Oprah.
When he asked that Harry was not with William, another person revealed that he “only does and obeys what he was told”.
