Prince William and Prince Harry are back in the headlines this week, and this time it is about their royal engagements and speculation that the latter tried to upstage his older brother. The two brothers happened to be on separate royal-style trips at the same time, sparking heaps of gossip about whether Harry was trying to steal his brother’s thunder. But insiders say that it’s not true.
Prince Harry’s travel plans were not set by him, per source
Hello! Magazine reported that Prince Harry’s visit to Canada and William’s Earthshot Prize events in Brazil were a scheduling coincidence in their royal engagements and not the Duke of Sussex’s plan to upstage William. A source told the magazine that Harry did not plan the trip himself. The True Patriot Love Foundation, a Canadian military charity he had supported in the past, invited him, and the group set the dates long before either brother’s travel plans were public.
The source explained that the charity set the dates of the event, not the duke. They added that informing Buckingham Palace was “a matter of courtesy.” Besides, according to their claim, the trip was to mark “the period of Remembrancetide,” which runs each year from November 1 to November 11. The report stressed that one cannot modify those dates.
However, the timing did raise eyebrows. On the same night William hosted his star-filled Earthshot ceremony in Brazil, photos of Harry meeting veterans in Canada appeared and made rounds on the internet. Even so, according to the report, the late notice about the Duke of Sussex’s travel was all about his personal security arrangements. Since he no longer receives official royal protection, his team only confirms travel plans once everything is for sure.
Observers noted that the clash may have looked awkward, but there is no suggestion that it was intentional. With William working across the Atlantic and Harry honoring veterans in Canada, it seems the brothers were busy focusing on their own commitments, even if their schedules collided for a few days.
