Kate Middleton ends effort to reunite Prince William with Prince Harry to ‘save her marriage’: Source

LONDON, ENGLAND: Kate Middleton has reportedly stepped away from trying to reconcile Prince William and Prince Harry.

Sources say she has chosen to safeguard her marriage instead of pursuing what she now views as a losing fight.

The rift between the royal brothers has deepened since Harry and Meghan Markle stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and moved to the US.

While Kate was once viewed as a hopeful bridge between the brothers, insiders now say she’s turned her attention fully to her own family.

Prince William 'hates even hearing Harry's name' 

A palace source revealed that Kate Middleton has grown upset over Prince William’s ongoing frustration with his brother.

“Kate gets upset seeing William so worked up about this. He hates even hearing Harry's name now,” the insider told RadarOnline.

Despite previously urging him to release the anger, she has reportedly accepted that healing the family divide isn’t worth the emotional cost.

“She's done trying to be the one to fix things and thinks it is far better to protect the happiness of her marriage and husband than try and do Harry a favor,” said the insider.

Kate Middleton decided to step back after Prince William felt she wasn't setting 'clear Boundaries'

Though she had stayed in limited contact with Prince Harry, Kate Middleton has now chosen to end all communication, especially after Harry’s recent public remarks.

“William started to feel like Kate wasn’t setting clear boundaries, and that caused strain,” said the palace insider.

“She came to see that trying to fix something beyond her control wasn't worth putting her marriage under pressure," the insider revealed further. 

Plans to see Prince Harry during London visit 'quietly shelved'

As Kate Middleton continues her gradual return to public life after cancer treatment, sources say she had hoped to see Prince Harry during his court appearance in May.

However, those plans were canceled. “The timing just wasn't right,” the insider said.

The insider, according to the publication, added, “Tensions were running high, and William was firmly against it."

During that visit, Harry appeared in a BBC interview, where he said, “He [King Charles] won't speak to me because of this security stuff, but it would be nice to reconcile. I don't know how much longer my father has.”
