KEY POINTS

  • Prince Harry and Prince William have not buried the hatchet after their reunion in the U.K. this month, a report says
  • But the Duke of Cambridge and Duke of Sussex reportedly "made some progress" after they talked
  • Prince Harry's relationship with dad Prince Charles remains rocky, the report adds

Prince Harry has not fully reconciled with his brother Prince William and dad Prince Charles after they reunited in the U.K. for Prince Philip's funeral, a report says.

Prince Harry and Prince William appeared to have had a friendly chat when they were spotted together following the late Duke of Edinburgh's service on April 17. However, an unnamed insider told Us Weekly that though progress has been made, it will take much more before the brothers can mend their relationship and put their rift behind them.

"Harry did speak to William while he was in the U.K., so in that respect, they made some progress," the source said. "But they definitely haven’t reached the stage where all is forgiven nor have they buried the hatchet."

Several body language experts previously suggested that Prince William and Prince Harry's actions during their grandfather's funeral seemed to point to a real thaw in their relationship. Expert Judi James said the brothers had a "genuine moment of unity rather than something contrived for the cameras."

Another body language expert, Elaine Swann, said that based on the Duke of Cambridge's gestures at the service, he was showing his younger brother that he is open to having a talk with him.

"William did his best to open his body language toward his brother," Swann told Us Weekly. "You have to look at the fact that he turned it toward him. And so, in that opening, that’s saying, ‘Come on in. Let’s talk, let’s chat.’ He didn’t walk side by side, but he actually turned toward his brother."

In contrast, Prince Harry's relationship with his father has not improved at all, according to the Us Weekly insider. The father and son's relationship is still rocky, with the feud escalating after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey in March, the source said.

"Charles is still fuming about Harry throwing shade at him and the royal family in the big interview and won’t let it drop," the source told the outlet.

"But to be honest, Harry didn’t go running back to Charles begging for forgiveness either," the insider continued. "He still hasn’t forgiven his father for his lack of effort and support after he and Meghan decided to move. The reason Harry went back to the U.K. was to see the queen and to pay his respects to Prince Philip. That’s about as far as it goes."
