A bombshell new book has laid bare the depth of the rift between the Prince of Wales and his brother, Prince Harry, revealing that William was 'deeply annoyed' and felt a profound sense of betrayal over Harry's multi-million pound deal with Netflix.
The revelation, detailed in Omid Scobie's latest work, suggests the lucrative agreement was the final straw for the future King, coming at a time when the brothers were attempting to navigate their fractured relationship following Harry and Meghan's step back from royal duties.
The Royal Reaction to the Megawatt Deal
According to the book, the Duke of Sussex's decision to partner with the streaming giant was not just a business move but a personal affront to William. The Prince of Wales perceived it as a direct contradiction to the values of their institution and a blatant commercialisation of their status.
The narrative paints a picture of a furious William, who saw the multi-million pound agreement as the ultimate act of defiance, shattering any remaining trust between the siblings. This was not merely a disagreement but a fundamental clash over duty, privacy, and the commercial boundaries of being a royal.
A Relationship Broken Beyond Repair?
The book's claims add another layer of complexity to the very public breakdown of the once-close brothers. It positions the Netflix deal not as a cause of the rift, but as a catastrophic event that cemented the existing divisions, making reconciliation appear more distant than ever.
This insight into William's private fury challenges the public perception of a stoic and diplomatic heir, revealing the raw personal emotion behind the royal facade. It underscores the fact that the schism is not just about differing life choices, but about deep-seated feelings of hurt and betrayal that continue to define their relationship today.
