The Duke and Duchess of
Sussex, who are living in California after quitting royal duties in 2020, are
returning to Britain next month for the first time since the Platinum Jubilee.
But royal biographer Angela Levin cast doubt on whether the two couples will
meet as she said the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, who are moving to Windsor
this summer, are “very busy taking on so many more engagements for the
Queen”.
Ms. Levin also suggested
William may want to avoid his younger brother as Harry’s tell-all memoir looms.
The royal author told
MailOnline: “[The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge] are extremely busy at the
moment.
“They’re moving home,
need to settle their children into new schools. They’re very busy taking on so
many more engagements for the Queen. And I don’t know whether William would
like to make amends with Harry.
“I think it’s very
difficult and certainly not before his memoir comes out because we don’t know
what he’s going to say. We have to wait to see what he does and maybe they
won’t want to see them until all that’s out in the open and they know what he
says.”
Ms. Levin’s comments come as
Harry and William, whose bond once appeared unbreakable, have been embroiled in
an ongoing rift.
Speculation is high over
whether the Sussexes will meet the Cambridges during their trip to Britain in
September.
If Harry and Meghan stay at
their Frogmore Cottage home, they will be only a few minutes’ walks away from
William and Kate.
The Duke and Duchess of
Cambridge are expected to move into Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor estate in
time for the children to start school.
But at the moment it looks
increasingly unlikely that the two couples will meet.
