Prince William battling 'complex emotions' as Prince Harry arrives back in UK

Earlier today, Prince Harry landed in the UK ahead of tonight’s WellChild Awards, and was spotted at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle,paying his respects to the late Queen Elizabeth on the three-year anniversary of her passing.

Just eight miles down the road, Prince William and Kate Middleton attended an engagement in Sunningdale, Berkshire, to commemorate the extraordinary life of the late monarch, visiting the National Federation of Women's Institute (WI), which holds a special connection to the late Queen.

There has been much talk about Harry meeting up with his estranged father, King Charles, on this trip after their teams were spotted in 'peace talks' over summer. However, the notion of Harry and William reconciling has been rubbished by all corners.

Analysing William's appearance alongside Kate, body language expert Judi James identified signs about the future king's true feelings towards his erstwhile side-kick and brother.

Judi said William could be feeling a 'complex' sense of loss today as he mourns the life of his grandmother, with whom he was very close, and the relationship he once had with Harry.

She told the Mirror: “William's emotions will clearly be complex as he 'mourns' two people he loved in his life: his grandmother on the anniversary of her death and his brother who also used to be his closest pal.”

Despite William no doubt having mixed feelings over the loss of his close relationship to Harry, Judi believes that the years of hurt between the brothers, and William’s unwavering dedication to the royal family, will help him work through his difficult feelings.

She said: “Loyalty to his grandmother might well help to cancel out some of the sadness at the loss of a brother, but I doubt the proximity factor will make little difference apart from some awkwardness, and having Kate at his side, who 'gets' the entire tragic narrative, will most likely help.”

Prince Harry touched down in Heathrow this morning to attend the annual WellChild Awards tonight in London, with rumours swirling that the Duke of Sussex may have a meeting with his estranged father King Charles while in his home country.

Despite an olive branch being extended between the Sussex camp and the Firm earlier this year when senior aides to both Harry and Charles met in London, Prince William is said to have firmly declined any potential reunion with his brother after years of public jabs between the two princes.

A source told the Mirror that the years-long onslaught of highly-publicised allegations about the royal family from Harry over the years has led to serious trust issues between the brothers, with a potential meeting between William and Harry in the coming weeks being “rejected out of hand”.

The source said: “William feels Harry has repeatedly chosen public exposure over private resolution and that the Royal Family can’t keep being dragged into the headlines every time there’s a new contract to promote."

They added: “The issue with Harry, as well as Meghan, is one of trust. Ever since moving to North America, they have eroded all confidence in their ability to keep things or their criticisms private. For there to be any chance of moving forward, that trust has to be rebuilt, and Team Sussex knows the onus is on them.”
