Following Robert Fellowes‘ funeral, close sources have claimed that Princess Diana‘s family is reportedly working hard to achieve reconciliation between Prince William and his younger brother Prince Harry, who have been in conflict for some time.
A close friend of the Spencers told the Daily Beast, “It was probably always going to be a funeral that brought the boys together under one roof“, and referring to their attendance at the funeral, she said, “They both adore Jane and it’s absolutely right that they were both there out of respect to her“.
“It’s a mature, promising sign that their private disagreements are not going to be allowed to overshadow important family events“, the source said about the attitude the princes showed at the event and added, “It’s an important recognition of the fact that blood is thicker than water“.
Another close family friend said, “Behind the scenes, the Spencers have been working hard to get the brothers to reconcile“, with this ceremony being the first sign that this is the case, and mentioned that just being in the same room “cast a glimmer of hope in an otherwise deeply depressing impasse“.
