Prince William "responded" to a text message from Prince Harry but not in the "warm, informal" way you’d expect, it has been claimed. Kate Middleton , the Princess of Wales , revealed earlier this year that cancer cells had been found following abdominal surgery she underwent at the start of 2024 at The London Clinic. After the announcement made headlines around the world, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex issued a statement, with it soon alleged that they had also "reached out privately" to the Waleses.
Royal expert and author Tom Quinn exclusively revealed to The Mirror : "Harry and Meghan have been in contact with William, but their private message was simply one of sympathy and didn’t include any suggestion the brothers should make up and let bygones be bygones or that Harry should fly back to the UK soon." He added: "There is just too much ill-feeling for that. William, who is still hurt by everything Harry has said in the past, has responded, but the response is very much engineered by the palace and it’s hardly the kind of warm, informal response you would expect from one brother to another.
It's more like the sort of communication you would get between two slightly wary diplomats." Following the Princess' announcement, the Sussexes released a statement which read: "We wish health and healing for Kate and the family, and hope they are able to do so privately and in peace."
