Prince William and Harry could reconcile after Royal fans spot 'olive branch' gesture

It has been thought that Prince Harry may reconnect with his brother, Prince William, following what some are calling an ‘olive branch gesture’.

It comes as eagle-eyed fans spotted what they believed to be a potential reconciliation on the horizon between the brothers, during the Coronation of King Charles III.

Prince Harry didn’t get a chance to reconnect with the Prince of Wales during his pit stop visit to the UK, forgoing a family lunch and the concert hosted in tribute to his father, in a bid to get back home to California.

After the formalities of his father’s coronation were over, the Duke of Sussex jetted back to the States to be with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Archie and Lilibet, to celebrate their little boy’s fourth birthday.

Reports suggest that there was no contact between the brothers during the event, indicating that the rift between them since Harry's departure as a senior working member of the Royal Family is still ongoing.

However, some royal fans speculate that a reconciliation might be possible after William posted a heartfelt tribute to his younger brother.

The bond between the two princes was famously strong, particularly in the aftermath of their mother's tragic death, Princess Diana.

Recent revelations have put a strain on their relationship.

In his bombshell memoir ‘Spare’ Prince Harry detailed an argument with Prince William at their UK residence, Frogmore Cottage, where he claimed that William "knocked him to the ground."

The dispute reportedly resulted in cuts and bruises on Harry's back in 2019.

Nonetheless, in a video shared on the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's social media platforms, some royal fans believe they have detected a thawing of tensions between the brothers and hold hope for a reconciliation.

Prince William and Princess Kate have released behind-the-scenes footage showcasing their preparations for King Charles' Coronation.

The footage includes moments of the royal couple and their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, getting ready to depart from Kensington Palace to Westminster Abbey.

During a scene where Princess Charlotte enters the living room, a series of photos are briefly visible, including one featuring Prince William, Prince Harry, and their late mother, Princess Diana.

The striking black and white photo was previously used in a 1995 Christmas card image.

This discovery on TikTok prompted royal fans to express their wishes for Harry and William to reconcile, with a sense of sadness that their mother, Princess Diana, would be devastated by the current situation.
