Prince William has taken a firm stance on his strained relationship with Prince Harry, with whom he reportedly has not spoken for over a year. Royal expert Jennie Bond describes William as strong, tough, and resolute, suggesting that his difficult childhood has shaped his character. As the heir to the throne, William’s decisions hold significant weight within the royal family, leading him to become the "enforcer" since the passing of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. Another royal expert, Hilary Fordwich, claims that William has prohibited Harry from rejoining the royal fold, even though Prince Charles may still have a soft spot for his younger son. Despite this, William remains steadfast in his decision not to reconcile with Harry, especially after the release of Harry’s controversial memoir and other actions that have strained their relationship further.
