Harrold, who served as the King&#8217;s butler at Highgrove from 2004 to 2011, had a front-row seat to the relationship between Princes William and Harry during their late teens and early twenties.<\/p>\n<p>In a new tell-all book, Harrold revealed to <a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/news\/royals\/royal-butler-reveals-one-thing-35801430\">the Mirror<\/a> just how &#8220;inseparable&#8221; the princes were before their years-long rift took hold. This revelation comes as <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/meghan-markle\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Meghan Markle<\/a> criticizes a &#8216;silly&#8217; Royal rule she had to follow &#8216;all the time&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Harrold stated, &#8220;<a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/entertainment\/celebrity-news\/181591\/prince-harry-meghan-markle-long-term-grudge\">William and Harry<\/a> were so close, as brothers go. With many siblings, you can be close as children and then maybe drift a bit as you grow up in your late teens and early 20s, but William and Harry were the opposite.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s because of their mother&#8217;s death, but they were inseparable. They were hanging out together, going to pubs together, just having fun together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Given his first-hand experience of the princes&#8217; relationship, Harrold noted that there were &#8220;never signs of any rift&#8221;, adding: &#8220;If I had been told all those years ago that they were going to fall out, I would&#8217;ve bet \u00a3100 that it would never happen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;Even when the rumors first started, I was publicly assuring the press that they would never fall out, that&#8217;s how confident I was. And when all the conflict really kicked off, I found myself wondering, &#8216;Why has this all gone so horribly wrong?&#8217; I couldn&#8217;t make sense of it because now they&#8217;re not even talking to each other, and they used to be in constant communication. It&#8217;s truly heartbreaking.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When questioned about his views on a potential Royal reconciliation, Harrold suggested that if the Sussexes and the Royal family ever reunited, it would be a far cry from their relationship before Harry and Meghan&#8217;s departure from the Firm.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Families have disagreements, and families can mend, but it&#8217;s never quite the same,&#8221; he expressed. &#8220;So yes, I can envision a reconciliation, I can see Harry returning, but not to the Firm as it once was.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DON&#8217;T MISS&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/entertainment\/tv\/181484\/meghan-markle-pal-netflix-show-montecito\" target=\"_blank\" data-name=\"Meghan Markle's pal lifts lid on filming Netflix show in her Montecito home\">Meghan Markle&#8217;s pal lifts lid on filming Netflix show in her Montecito home [COMMENT]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/entertainment\/celebrity-news\/181373\/sopranos-jerry-adler-career-over-hollywood\" target=\"_blank\" data-name=\"Sopranos star Jerry Adler feared career was over before Hollywood comeback\">Sopranos star Jerry Adler feared career was over before Hollywood comeback [INSIGHT]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a target=\"_blank\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/entertainment\/celebrity-news\/181304\/harry-potter-miriam-margolyes-health-deteriorates\" target=\"_blank\" data-name=\"Harry Potter star says she 'wants to be put down' if health deteriorates\">Harry Potter star says she &#8216;wants to be put down&#8217; if health deteriorates [HEALTH]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t foresee Harry and Meghan ever appearing on the Palace balcony for Trooping the Colour, for instance, but I can imagine the family mending fences behind closed doors and working towards the King seeing his grandchildren [Archie and Lilibet].<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I believe that&#8217;s what they&#8217;re striving for. They might be thinking &#8216;Let&#8217;s just be a family behind closed doors and move past this rift from our perspective, not from the public&#8217;s perspective&#8217;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>However, considering Harry and Meghan&#8217;s history of making allegations against the Royal family, Harrold cautioned the Sussexes about misusing their new Netflix deal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Are there more books coming? Are there more documentaries coming?&#8221; he questioned. &#8220;We don&#8217;t know, and I really hope not because that&#8217;s the sad bit. As long as they stick to things like Meghan&#8217;s lifestyle show and not the tell-all books and documentaries, then there is a possibility for a reunion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Despite numerous calls for a Royal reconciliation, Harrold acknowledged that there have been countless public attacks over the years, making a reunion challenging if it occurs at all.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;The way things are now is such a mess. And we don&#8217;t know if Kate will ever forgive Harry for example, and there are so many people involved, and I think we have to accept that there is a real possibility that we may ever see them as a united family in public, but that doesn&#8217;t mean they aren&#8217;t trying to heal the rift behind closed doors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.the-express.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Grant Harrold, a former butler to King Charles, has shared his insights on the possibility of a reconciliation between Prince Harry and the rest of the Royal family.
