WILLIAM AND HARRY FINALLY COME TOGETHER TO MOURN
UNITED IN GRIEF

As Prince William and Prince Harry emerged from the gates of Windsor Castle together after years of feuding, it was clear that in death, the Queen had finally managed her dearest wish – to bring the brothers back together again.

Their surprise joint appearance drew gasps from the watching throngs of mourners, who had been told to expect only the new Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Catherine.

No sooner had the couple appeared from the front seats of a family Range Rover did the rear doors open, revealing the other two passengers as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

It was clear they had reunited for one purpose – to honour the Queen, their family matriarch who had stood by them through thick and thin.

BROTHERS IN ARMS

“There was still tension there, but for 40 minutes they tried desperately to put their differences aside to honour a magnificent woman,” reveals an insider.

The scenes of the pair moving along the crowds, shaking hands and accepting condolences at Windsor Castle, was eerily similar to a scene 25 years ago where they did the same at Kensington Palace following the 1997 death of their mum, Princess Diana.

The once-inseparable brothers, torn apart by anger and resentment, reunited after William swallowed his pride.

The newly minted Prince of Wales sent his younger sibling a text asking if he’d like to come see the floral tributes.
