Prince William and Prince Harry's recent reunion elated royal fans because it seemed like the brothers were finally ready to set their issues aside for the sake of Queen Elizabeth. However, royal expert Richard Kay said that only time will tell whether the brothers' recent outing helped improve their relationship or it was done out of a temporary respite.

Were Prince William And Prince Harry's Walkabout Sincere Or Just For Show?

In his column for Daily Mail, Kay pointed out that some royal fans couldn't help but doubt the sincerity of Prince William and Prince Harry's recent outing, and no one could blame them. After all, the royals are known for faking it until they make it, just like King Charles III and Princess Diana did.

Years ago, royal fans had no idea that the royal couple was already having problems in their marriage because they were always all smiles when out in public. But behind closed doors, they barely got along. So, it is also possible for Prince William and Prince Harry to have reunited for the Queen and not because they are ready to bury the hatchet.

"William, it is understood, took the view that at this time of national mourning a show of unity was needed out of respect to the Queen. As an insider put it: 'These coming days are going to be extremely intense and getting through them without distraction can only be a good thing.' But was it anything more than pragmatism? At the time of Prince Philip's funeral in April last year, the brothers were urged to try and settle their differences. And there was hope when, immediately after the service, they were pictured leaving St George's chapel side by side to return to the castle. But the optimism was misplaced and the rift remained. In the intervening months' things have not improved and loomed over the relationship and whether it can be salvaged is Harry's forthcoming memoir. 'William loves his brother but there is this matter of trust,' says one figure," he wrote.

Kay also debunked the claims that Prince Charles was the one who asked Prince William to invite Prince Harry to check out the floral tributes. He said that it was the Prince of Wales' decision and he wasn't influenced by anyone.

Prince William and Prince Harry also texted over their arrangements for several minutes, that's why their outing that was scheduled for 4:30 p.m. was pushed back.

Prince William And Prince Harry Attended Separate Dinners With The Royal Family After The Queen's Death

However, there were still signs of division among the members of the royal family even after the Queen's death.

King Charles III, Camilla Parker-Bowles, Prince William, and Kate Middleton reportedly stayed in Birkhall, and they also had a meal together. Prince Harry, on the other hand, remained at Balmoral Castle with Prince Andrew and Prince Edward.

"Two dinners were being hosted on the royal estate that night and there was a clear divide: One was for the new king and his heir, the other was for the rest of the family," an insider told Kay.
