Prince Harry<\/a><\/strong> and Prince William<\/a><\/strong> are on track for a potentially tense royal reunion. The estranged brothers are expected to receive invitations to the upcoming wedding of their cousin, Peter Phillips<\/strong>, setting the stage for their first public appearance together since 2024.<\/p>\n

Phillips, the son of Princess Anne<\/strong> and Captain Mark Phillips<\/strong>, recently announced his engagement to Harriet Sperling<\/strong>. Although an official date for Phillips\u2019 wedding has not yet been announced, Harry and William will likely both attend<\/a> if asked. <\/p>\n

The last time Harry and William were seen at the same event was in August 2024 at the memorial service for their uncle, Lord Robert Fellows.\u00a0PEOPLE<\/em><\/a> reported the brothers sat apart from one another and did not interact.<\/p>\n

During King Charles<\/strong>\u2019s coronation in 2023, Harry and William kept their distance. The last time they were publicly seen together was at the funerals of Prince Philip in 2021 and Queen Elizabeth<\/a><\/strong> in 2022.<\/p>\n

But during an interview with the BBC<\/a> in May 2025, the Duke of Sussex expressed his wish to mend fences with the royal family<\/a>. He said, \u201cI would love reconciliation with my family. There\u2019s no point continuing to fight anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

At this time, William and Harry\u2019s relationship remains at a standstill. Reportedly, the brothers have had little, if any, communication over the past five years.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

The siblings\u2019 estrangement stems from years of growing tension. This divide was amplified by Harry and Meghan\u2019s decision to step back from royal duties in 2020. <\/p>\n

Subsequent criticism of the royal family in interviews deepened the brothers\u2019 rift. This conflict has kept them apart ever since.<\/p>\n

However, there are growing indications that Prince Harry\u2019s relationship with King Charles and Prince William may be improving, following recent meetings between their respective teams in the U.K. According to royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams<\/a>, Charles\u2019 steps toward reconciliation were likely known by William and had his approval.<\/p>\n
