Prince Harry's brutal comment about brother William's appearance amid royal feud

Prince Harry issued a brutal comment about the appearance of his older brother Prince William as their royal feud continues.

The Duke of Sussex and Prince of Wales are not on the best of terms following the publication of Prince Harry's autobiography, Spare. Further comments from the Sussex representative, who left active duties in the Royal Family back in March 2020, has seen the duo come to a head once again. Passing a brutal putdown on his brother's appearance during his attendance at the funeral of Prince Philip in 2021, the Duke of Sussex pitied his older brother and dubbed him "Willy" as he commented on how his looks were "fading with time."

Prince Harry took to the controversial biography and wrote: "I looked at Willy, really looked at him, maybe for the first time since we were boys. I took it all in: his familiar scowl, which had always been his default in dealings with me, his alarming baldness, more advanced than my own; his famous resemblance to Mummy, which was fading with time." The Duke defended his writings at the time of publication too, with a 60 Minutes interview describing the comments as "cutting".

But Prince Harry saw no issue with what he had written in the book, saying he does not see it "as cutting at all." He explained: "My brother and I love each other. I love him deeply." Despite the alleged deep love between the duo it would appear the princely duo are still at odds and there is minimal contact between the pair. Royal insiders speaking at the time wondered whether Prince Harry would ever be welcomed back into the family, dubbing him a "traitor" in the eyes of his brother and father. A source said: "I don’t doubt he still loves his father and his brother but it’s impossible to see how he won’t come to bitterly regret his decision to do this.

"He knows he will be labelled a traitor, by crossing a red line so many times, his father, his brother, the Princess (of Wales) and Camilla, it's utterly extraordinary."
