The Duke and Duchess of Sussex sparked outrage earlier this year when they gave a shocking insight into why they wanted to leave their roles as senior royals. Harry also spoke about being on a “different path” to his older brother, who will one day be a future king, sparking reports there may have been a rift between them. He has also rarely been seen with his brother since moving thousands of miles away to California, apart from a brief reunion for Prince Philip’s funeral and the unveiling of Princess Diana’s statue this year.

However, Stewart Pearce, the author of Diana: The Voice of Change, is not convinced there was a feud between the two brothers.

He added a “subtle disagreement” between the pair was likely to have just been blown out of proportion.

Mr Pearce told Express.co.uk: “My stance on the matter is somewhat different to the majority of the British people because there has been this statement that there has been a huge rift between Harry and William.

“The fact is there isn’t a rift. As growing, powerful men in the world, being brothers there was possible a subtle disagreement and it was only a disagreement.

“But as a result of the British press, suddenly there was a huge rift, which was then exacerbated by the freedom statement made by Meghan and Harry to Oprah.

“There was never anything to repair between them.”

Harry added his relationship with William was “spaced” during the Oprah interview.

He said: “As I’ve said before, I love William to bits. He’s my brother.

“We’ve been through hell together. I mean, we have a shared experience.

“But we’re on different paths.

“The relationship is space at the moment.

“And time heals all things, hopefully.”

William was also the first royal to speak out against the claims as he told reporters that he had not spoken to Harry in the days after the interview was aired.

However, he has not talked about his brother publicly since then.

Harry also used similar phrasing when he said he was “on different paths” with William in the October 2019 ITV documentary Harry & Meghan: An African Journey.

A few months later, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex then made the bombshell announcement that they stepping down as senior royals.

They now live in California with their two children Archie, 2, and baby Lilibet.

William and Kate sent well wishes to Harry and Meghan when Lilibet was born in July, proving there was no animosity.

They wrote on Twitter at the time: “We are all delighted by the happy news of the arrival of baby Lili. Congratulations to Harry, Meghan and Archie.”

Express.co.uk has contacted a spokesperson for Meghan and Harry and also Buckingham Palace for a comment.
