There are rumors that prince harry Tried to contact Prince William Every now and then there is a sharp reaction from inside the palace. Royal author Omid Scobie has claimed that Harry reached out to his brother in 2023 in the hope of opening the door to negotiations using an “intermediary”, a mutual friend, later repeating the claims while promoting his book “Endgame”. However, sources now tell a different story.
Prince Harry’s olive branch to Prince William is ‘absolutely not true,’ source says.
Omid Scobie told us weekly Prince Harry wanted some form of contact with Prince William, possibly in the presence of a third person, but this came to nothing. According to Scobie, “it didn’t happen,” and “the stone wall still stands” between the brothers. He further said, “Unless the attitude of both sides changes, we will not find any way to a solution.”
However, William’s sources reportedly reject the idea that Harry ever sent an intermediary to his elder brother, a palace insider told rob shutter“There was no mediator. No secret olive branch. That’s simply not true.” Meanwhile, another source commented, “Harry is not shy. If he can get Oprah on the phone, he can call his brother straight away.”
At the same time, royal aides see a pattern with Scobie. A royal source told Shutter, “Omid knows how to make headlines,” adding, “And he’s just as shy as Harry – which is to say, not at all.” He said, “When a book by someone like him comes out, stories start coming out.” The insider further speculates, “Expect a more dramatic retelling as the release date gets closer,” as people close to Scobie and Harry are insisting that he tried to reach out and hit a wall.
William and Harry lost touch when Meghan Markle stepped down as a senior member of the royal family in 2020 and moved to California shortly thereafter. Additionally, Harry’s memoir “Spare” details conflict within the royal family. Now, reports say that the brothers have not been seen together in public since August 2024.
