Royal fans tell William to 'leave alone' amid Harry feud pressure
Royal fans: 'Leave William alone' amid Harry feud pressure

Royal fans have reacted to a royal expert's claim that Prince William is facing calls to be the "bigger brother" and try to resolve the ongoing feud with Prince Harry. The 44-year-old is reportedly set to continue "ignoring" his younger brother and sister-in-law amid their shock return to the UK last week.

Expert claims Harry has William 'over a barrel'

Speaking recently to HELLO!, royal expert Katie Nicholl claims that Harry has William "over a barrel" with his move, as a reconciliation appears much more likely. She told the publication: "In many ways, Harry's really got William over a barrel because it will be very difficult with them being geographically so much closer and Harry being welcomed back into the royal fold by his father, at least, for William to be adamant that there will be no reconciliation."

She also shared that William is facing "pressure" to be the "bigger person" and try and reconnect with Harry. She said: "As a future King and a Christian member of the Royal Family who will one day be head of the Church of England, I think there will be an expectation and some pressure on him to step up to the plate and be the bigger of the brothers and to show forgiveness."

An additional 54 people shared that they weren't sure what William should do.

Taking to the comment section, one fan commented: "Leave HRH Prince William alone!..." Another added: "Of course he shouldn't forgive Harry. Harry is not sorry for any of the hurt he has caused and still thinks he is the victim..." A third added: "William should stay away from Harry. Harry caused a lot of pain in the Royal Family..."
