Prince William still refuses to return Harry’s phone calls: “a lot of bad blood” between them, expert claims

Things been relatively quiet regarding the British Royal Family lately, at least regarding the relationship between Princes William and Harry.

Since the infamous Oprah Winfrey interview earlier this year, feelings between the two royal brothers have been frosty – they’ve reportedly only seen each other once since Harry and Meghan Markle spilled their secrets on camera. 

Now though, new information about what’s going on behind the scenes has come to light. According to bestselling author Christopher Andersen – who’s written a book about the royal brothers – William hasn’t been returning Harry’s phone calls for months.

Rather than standing up for his brother during the immense fallout, William took his father’s side.

“It’s really Charles and William versus Harry and Meghan,” Andersen told Fox News.

“William is fiercely loyal to his father. He thinks his father is a great historical figure who has been underestimated. And he feels for his dad. They all love the Queen. But when you’re maybe going to be king when you’re almost 80 years old, it’s a sad position to be in. So William has been by his father’s side.”

William and Harry met for the first time since the Oprah interview when a statue of their mother, Princess Diana, was unveiled in London back in June. Many believed that it would be a time for the two brothers to make amends and iron out any problems. According to Andersen, though, nothing has changed.

The author claimed that William isn’t returning any of Harry’s phone calls, and hasn’t for months. As for Charles and Harry, the two haven’t spoken at all.

In the Oprah Winfrey interview, Harry and Meghan claimed that a member of the Royal Family had been concerned regarding the skin color of their then-unborn son Archie. This was a particular note of controversy.

They never revealed who the member was, but Andersen claims that he has tracked down the person responsible for the comment.

“They wouldn’t reveal who it was. Harry later said the comment didn’t come from the Queen or Prince Philip. Well, I found that it was a very innocent comment made by Prince Charles,” Andersen claimed.

“He turned to Camilla and said, ‘I wonder what the kids are going to look like.’ “You know, hair color, eye color, complexion. It wasn’t racially motivated or anything. But the men in gray who run things behind the scenes at the palaces spun it into something more sinister-sounding,” he added.

“Harry was upset and asked Charles and William what was going on. They told him, ‘You’re overreacting; you’re being oversensitive. Let’s move on.’ And it just added fuel to the fire. There was a lot of tension already, and that just made it so much worse.”
