Princess Kate and Prince William 'want Prince Harry as far away from Royal Family as possible' as bitter feud continues

The couple did not appear to interact with Prince Harry during King Charles's Coronation on Saturday.

And now a friend of Prince William has that the Prince and Princess of Wales want to maintain distance between the Royal Family and Prince Harry.

William's pal said: "It’s very clear that William and Kate are now extremely important members of the institution, so their view on Harry, which is basically the further away the better, will have to be taken into account."

The friend also warned that Prince Harry and Prince William's bitter feud could last decades as the Prince of Wales may not invite his brother to his Coronation.

Prince William's friend added during an interview with the Daily Beast: "Put it this way: I don’t think anyone expects Harry to get an invite to William’s Coronation."

Last month, Kate Mansey, Assistant Editor of the Mail on Sunday, told GB News that it will be years until the rift between the brothers dies down.

She added that reconciliation is not a short-term goal for either of the royals.

Mansey said: "I think William and Harry, that's going to be years before that riff can die down.

"I think there is hope. People I'm speaking to in the Palace who know the Princes well, they've known them for years and years, seen them grow up and seen them fall apart and get back together, do have hope that they will be reconciled at some stage but that is not short term.

"That's not a short-term goal for anything and also the King is going to be very busy."

It comes as Prince William and Kate have reportedly not spoken to Prince Harry since Queen Elizabeth II's funeral in September 2022.

King Charles is understood to be the only senior member of the Royal Family who is speaking to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

In January 2023, Prince Harry launched multiple digs at the Prince and Princess of Wales in his bombshell memoir Spare.
