Revealed: Prince William ‘hasn’t spoken to Harry in two years and doesn’t want him at his coronation’
According to insiders, Prince William has no plans to invite his younger brother Harry to his coronation.
Although they were once close, the royal brothers are believed to have not spoken to each other for almost two years and are “estranged”, in a move described by a close friend as “terribly sad”.
Friends of the 42-year-old Prince of Wales have reported that William does not want Harry, 39, to be present when he is crowned king.
A source close to William told The Sunday Times: ‘This year his focus has been on his wife, his children and his father. His brother is not really something that is talked about.’
Both the Princess of Wales and the King were diagnosed with cancer earlier this year.

The Princess of Wales, who is undergoing cancer treatment, even “picked up a Nerf gun, ran around and played in the mud with her children,” Ms Barron added, calling it “the greatest honour” to host the family.
