Prince Harry and Prince William's relationship reported to be beyond repair after Netflix series

Claims have been made that the relationship between Prince Harry and Prince William is now beyond repair following the release of the Netflix documentary Harry and Meghan. The first three episodes of the series were released on Thursday, December 8, and show criticisms made towards the Royal Family from the Sussexes.

The pair have been critical of the Royal Family since they stepped down as senior royals and left the UK in 2020. They currently live in the United States where they have regularly spoken to the American media about life in the Royal Family and the issues it caused them.

It has been reported that Prince William is angry at how the Queen had to deal with such criticism during the final months of her life. In the series there was more criticism of the late Queen and her Commonwealth legacy, which was described as “Empire 2.0", reports the Daily Mirror.

In the tell-all Netflix documentary, Harry accused the royals of having a "huge level of unconscious bias" and Meghan claimed that the media wanted to "destroy" her. The Duke talked of how members of his family questioned why Meghan needed more protection from the media than their wives had been given, claiming they failed to understand the "race element".

A friend of the Prince of Wales. Prince William, is quoted as saying: "All relationships are built on trust but for members of the Royal Family, who live their life in the spotlight, doubly so," reported the Daily Mail. Prince William is reported to have not seen the documentary yet, but a source has said it goes against what he believes.

The friend stated: "The prince is a very private man and what Harry is doing is the anathema of everything he believes. On that alone, many believe it is unlikely he will ever be able to repair his relationship with them. Too much water has gone under the bridge."

Prince William tweeted on the same day as the Netflix series was released that a friend of his had died in Kenya and that was what was on his mind. He wrote: “Yesterday, I lost a friend, who dedicated his life to protecting wildlife in some of East Africa’s most renowned national parks.

"Mark Jenkins, and his son Peter, were tragically killed when flying over Tsavo National Park while conducting an aerial patrol. Tonight, I’m thinking about Mark’s wife, family and colleagues who’ve sadly lost a man we all loved and admired.”
