“Harry’s thinking is of ‘reconciliation’, having dumped on the royal family with Spare, the Oprah interview, and their Netflix series,” Tom told OK!. “That’s just totally unrealistic. There is zero chance of reconciliation because there is irreconcilable anger on the part of William and Kate.”

Will Prince Harry reconcile with his family?

It’s a question many have asked, and the answer, according to insiders, appears bleak.

The situation has been further complicated by Harry’s ongoing legal battle with the UK Home Office over his security arrangements.

After the government stripped Harry and his family of taxpayer-funded security following their royal exit, the Duke fought to overturn the decision. Unfortunately for Harry, this ended in a loss.

Earlier this month, following his disappointment, Harry opened up about his strained relationship with his family and his desire to mend fences.

“There have been so many disagreements between myself and some of my family,” Harry said. “I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point continuing to fight anymore. Life is precious.”

Earlier this month, a royal source told The Times that King Charles is open to reconciliation, but William, Kate and Camilla are less enthusiastic.

Harry and William’s rift runs deep

While Harry has hinted at a desire to return to the UK, the rift between him and his brother appears hopeless.

“There’s no doubt that in some conversations Harry has said that he might come back,” Tom revealed. “But they have nowhere to live. Frogmore Cottage was taken away after Spare was published. And Meghan doesn’t want to come back. There’s no way he’s going to split off from her and the children.”

The friction between Harry and William has reportedly been exacerbated by Harry’s public comments, including those made in the Netflix docuseries and his memoir Spare.

Tom claims William saw Harry’s suggestion that royal men “marry someone who fits the mould rather than someone they are destined to be with” as a “blatant attack” on Kate, describing it as “the lowest of the low.”

‘Harry doesn’t understand that world’

Meanwhile, Meghan has been forging ahead with her own projects.

Her new podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, has garnered attention for its candid conversations.

Meanwhile, her new lifestyle venture, As Ever, continues to make waves, with its debut collection selling out in under 24 hours.

Tom praised Meghan’s resilience. “She is an indomitable fighter. Few celebrities have been as ridiculed as Meghan, and yet she never gives up. I admire her for that. I think it’s remarkable.”

But he also warned that Meghan’s ambitions may not align with Harry’s world.

“They have a crisis because Meghan wants to be a billionaire celebrity, and Harry doesn’t understand that world. He doesn’t grasp what it entails, where she’s coming from. She worked incredibly hard, struggled hard, and craves the security of finance and status.”
