Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have returned to the UK along with their children, Archie and Lilibet but attention has turned toward Prince William and Princess Kate’s reaction to the Sussexes arrival in a crushing blow to the royal couple amid the ongoing tension.
Former friend of the Duchess of Sussex, brand expert and royal commentator Nick Ede says William and Catherine are likely to be extremely cautious, as they seek to protect their family from further speculation surrounding the fractured relationship between the brothers. He added the Prince and Princess of Wales are likely to carefully manage any interaction with the Sussexes.
Speaking about Harry and Meghan’s return with Cafe Casino, Nick said: “William and Catherine are likely to be extremely cautious. They will want to protect the stability of their own family and avoid being drawn into another cycle of speculation, private conversations becoming public and every interaction being analysed.”

Nick also says Catherine should not be expected to play the role of mediator between the brothers.
“Catherine has often appeared to be a calming influence, but it would be unfair to expect her to act as the person responsible for repairing the relationship between the brothers.”
But in a surprising U-turn the presenter suggested we could see the “Fab Four” finally reunite.
“I wouldn’t rule out seeing the four of them together eventually, particularly at a major family or royal occasion, but a genuine ‘Fab Four’ reunion feels some way off. That phrase belongs to a very different chapter in their lives.”
William and Harry are currently not on speaking terms.
The brothers have been estranged for several years following Harry’s departure from official royal duties in 2020. The rift deeply intensified after Harry and Meghan aired private family grievances through high-profile interviews, a Netflix documentary series, and Harry’s 2023 tell-all memoir, Spare.
