Prince Harry and Prince William Avoid Each Other at Uncle's Funeral

Prince Harry and Prince William both attended their uncle Lord Robert Fellowes' funeral amid their rift. However, they reportedly avoided one another while there.

Harry, 39, and William, 42, went to the service at St. Mary's Church in Snettisham, Norfolk, on Wednesday, Aug. 28, according to The Sun. Lord Fellowes, the brother-in-law of the princes' late mother Princess Diana, died on July 29 of undisclosed causes. He was 82.

PEOPLE previously understood that the Duke of Sussex was not attending his uncle's funeral amid his security issues in the U.K.

A family friend said they were “very happy to confirm both princes were there," per The Sun. They reportedly both sat in the back but did not sit near one another.

A separate source told The Sun they didn't know Harry and the Prince of Wales were there until they saw the princes after the service, adding, "They arrived very discreetly.”

“William and Harry were both there but we never saw them speak to each other and they were keeping their distance," another attendee added, according to The Sun.

Sources previously told PEOPLE that Harry's attempts to connect with his brother — through texts, calls, and messages — are ignored.

The last time Harry and William publicly reunited was in May 2023 at King Charles' coronation. However, the brothers reportedly did not interact with one another there either.

Most recently, Harry and King Charles were said to have had a positive meeting in February after King Charles' cancer diagnosis. However, communication since then has reportedly deteriorated. Harry's close friends previously said that King Charles is no longer taking his calls.

And that's what will happen at King Charles funeral.

The new King William at first chair and the Sussexes near but an ocean away. And no front door arrival for them either.

Fuck William.

He can't stop Harry from attending his own uncle's funeral, and if William doesn't like it, then TOO BAD.

He can stay home.

R2 William did NOT stop Harry. So what the fuck are you going on about?

by Anonymousreply 3August 30, 2024 12:10 PM

I'll give Harry credit for secrecy. He arrived, attended and departed and no coverage of it until it was over and then only because somebody else leaked it.

William needs a good, deep, hard ass pounding... in all the different positions... he'd prolly be ok then😅😆

Don't worry.

I give him a good PEGGING, quite regularly.

And here we are back with the juvenile "pegging" stuff.

Why do you think sexual activity should have a subtext of ridicule?

by Anonymousreply 7August 30, 2024 12:50 PM

r2 Did you not even bother reading the article before you ran to DL and posted it?

by Anonymousreply 8August 30, 2024 12:53 PM

Of course, both would attend.

But I'd rather read about it in other than an approved mouthpiece of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Mountbatten-Windsor of Montecito, CA, USA.

I’ve wanted to kill my brother for good reason, but I can’t imagine seeing him after a long time apart and not exchanging pleasantries.

by Anonymousreply 10August 30, 2024 1:08 PM

Well, r10, may I suggest it's because you and your brother aren't famous and neither one of you has violated private family stuff to sell a book, streaming series and be interviewed by Oprah and insinuate bigotry, spill tea and utter "Waity Katie"?

The Sussexes pushed all their chips in by doing all of that. They're now living with the consequences of that risk.

Point being at r11,

Fredo Corleone = Harry.

You sell-out even once, you've forever placed yourself outside of "the family business".

by Anonymousreply 12August 30, 2024 1:18 PM

You can suggest that, certainly. It would be a pointless thing to say, but by all means, go ahead.

The Duchess should have accompanied her husband. At least she could have broken the ice by passing out jam and dog biscuits to everyone. What a missed opportunity.

R10, if I were in William's shoes, I would not want to have anything to do with Harry ever again. Harry raked William, Catherine, Charles, and Camilla over the coals for monetary gain.

Harry and his wife stepped away from official duties as members of the British Royal Family and expressed a desire for privacy. Fine. Bully for them. But they've lived since then as if they were still performing official duties as members of the British Royal Family and live quite public lives. Rather than doing it for the interest of and in the interest of the UK, Harry and his wife do everything just for themselves. To William, Harry has betrayed everything they were raised to serve.

Let Harry go to Canossa, not William reach out to him!

King Charles - Mama Carmela Corleone.

"I want nothing to happen to him while our Mother is alive." Michael to Al Neri his bodyguard about Fredo.

Yeah, it's over-the-top melodrama, and of course, King William would never order Harry's death, but he doesn't have to. Harry is already dead to him.

But, in principle, the comparison is apt. Once King Charles is dead, Harry's last link to the BRF is gone, too.

lol, r17.

Sometimes I enjoy entertaining Prince Louis with the story of the Duke of Clarence bobbing in a vat of malmsey wine. It may be apocryphal, but he doesn’t know that.

Who is this uncle?

Never heard of him.

by Anonymousreply 21August 30, 2024 5:21 PM

Diana's sister's husband.

He was an uncle by marriage William and Harry.

And father to their first cousins.

OP wish we could avoid you and your culty royalass derangers. Tragically Muriel has abdicated her blocking function.

Harry should just avoid William.

Permanently.

Are Harry and Meghan cosying up to Earl Spencer so they can use Althorp as the backdrop when Meghan cosplays Diana?

Diana and Fergie hated Fellowes. Fergie, his cousin, called him “Bellowes.”

He was the courtier tasked with yelling at them about the press clippings about their antics. From Kitty Kelley’s book::

“When Sarah returned to her office in Buckingham Palace, she was greeted by the unsmiling face of Sir Robert Fellowes, who had been promoted to the powerful position of the Queen’s private secretary.* He walked in brandishing a pile of press clippings.

“Well, we didn’t do very well again today, did we?” he said, shaking his head with disapproval. He dropped the stack of newspaper stories on her desk as if they were dead mice. She glared at him.

“Oh, Robert, really,” she said with exasperation.

“This must be such a disappointment for you,” he said, peering over his steel-rimmed glasses. Turning to leave, he added, “I know it is for Her Majesty.”

Fellowes, or “Bellowes,” as Fergie called him, was her father’s first cousin and a man she came to detest. She dreaded his visits to her office. He always arrived looking dour and brandishing a pile of clippings that chronicled her latest misadventure.

She told friends she got a stomachache as soon as she saw him approaching her door. “He could hardly wait to show me the story of the MP who said I was flagrantly abusing the royal name,” she said.

“He was her Lord High Executioner,” said a New York businesswoman whom the Duchess had adopted as her unofficial adviser. “Bad-news Bellowes, as we called him, made Sarah’s life a living hell…”

They need to stop and just make amends. Life is short and tomorrow isn’t promised. One of them could die in a plane crash and then forever regret it. They were close as fuck growing up. They need to just stop this foolishness.

I think it's best this way, avoid at all costs...coz he's toxic

Not gonna happen. William has been unbothered for the past few years of Harold's one-sided feud. After a lifetime of cleaning up Harokd's steaming messes, it must have been a relief to have seen the back of him. BYE BYE Handbag.

William should decline any invitations to go hunting in the New Forest.

If he wants to attend every little event in England who should really live in the country. This fuel-wasting one-day jaunts are ridiculous and, given his ecological pretensions, offensive.

R2 You already had your post written in your head before you even opened this thread without even reading the article which shows how insanely biased you are with a complete disregard for facts. Not to mention just plain insane.

They avoided each other at the funeral. William did not make any attempt at preventing Harry from attending. I suggest you seek professional help for your Windsor Derangement Syndrome, KGT.

R33 I agree.
