Sussex Betrayal Phobia: Why Kate Middleton and Prince William Are Keeping Prince Harry in Royal Quarantine

When it comes to regaining trust with Prince William and Kate, Princess of Wales, Prince Harry may want to move on.

"The problem for the King and other members of the family is the worry that if they have a chat with Harry, it will appear in Spare volume two," a source spilled.

"How do you regain the trust?" they asked. "I don’t think Harry ever can. But from the conversations I’ve had with the King, I would never say their relationship is irreparable. The King’s capacity to forgive his son is undimmed. There are other members of the royal family who are much more weighted against Harry, that’s the problem."

When asked if there was a level of revenge at play when Charles III booted the Sussex family from Frogmore Cottage in June 2023, they replied, "The evidence is there, clearly, for everyone to see. He has been kicked out of the home that would have made it possible for him to come back on a regular basis."

This insight comes as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's year is busy with new Netflix projects, the Duchess' brand launch, film premieres, numerous visits and two "faux royal tours" under their belts. But amid the busy Sussex schedule, British royal courtiers are said to find the couple's constant output to be chaotic.

"Buckingham Palace would prefer that Harry and Meghan retire into quiet obscurity, but that is not going to happen," royal editor Tom Sykes dished. "They are private citizens, so they cannot be banned from going or not going anywhere."

Although some analysts feel Harry's assistance to William would be "brotherly," others think the Prince of Wales' chaotic year in comparison doesn't have the next king wishing for a sibling reunion. The Princess of Wales's ongoing preventative chemotherapy treatments has "stressed" the monarch-in-waiting "to the max."

"Make no mistake, William is keeping Kate and his family well away from Meghan and Harry," former royal butler to Diana, Princess of Wales, Paul Burrell, told an outlet.

"The door of Adelaide Cottage is shut, and there is no way in for Harry and Meghan," he added. "William knows that Harry can’t be trusted and doesn’t want any more upset in his family."

Burrell went on to say that His Royal Highness only considers Harry as "background noise" at this point and is likely okay with never speaking to him ever again due to what he wrote about him in Spare. In the tome, the fiery-haired prince joked about his elder brother's "bald head" and accused him of assaulting him in 2019, among many other disparaging excerpts.
