Prince Harry has claimed that the Prince of Wales canceled plans made to spend the night together before their wedding in 2018, leaving him feeling low.

The 38-year-old Duke of Sussex claimed in his explosive memoir Spare, officially released on Tuesday, that Prince William, 40, was going to spend the night with him and his friends at the Coworth Park Hotel on the eve of their wedding. with Meghan Markle on May 19, 2018.

But now he claims his older brother canceled at the last minute, citing that he needed to stay with the Princess of Wales and their children. After Harry tried to persuade him further, she finally agreed to go to dinner with him, but she still refused to stay the night, her memory recounts.

Harry also wrote that William was originally reluctant to take part in a public walk before the wedding, though he eventually agreed and the couple met members of the public at King Edward Gate in Windsor.

The Duke of Sussex said the alleged cancellation of the Prince of Wales was among a number of factors that made him feel “down” in the days leading up to his wedding day.

She said she was feeling particularly sad on the eve of her wedding, partly because of the dispute that allegedly occurred between Kate and Meghan over the bridesmaids’ dresses.

The royal added that friends who were with him at the luxury hotel asked ‘where Prince William was’.

He claimed the brothers had planned to spend the night together and take a public walk, just as they had done for William’s wedding to the Princess of Wales in 2011.

Prince Harry said a number of factors contributed to his feeling depressed in the run up to his wedding, pictured.

The Duke of Sussex said he wondered what had changed his brother’s mind, and whether it was the dispute over dresses or the fact that he was going to marry with a beard, which had been another point of tension in the race. until the wedding.

He also said he wondered if William was unhappy about making his childhood best friend, Charlie van Straubenzee, his godfather over his brother.

‘Was he resentful for not being my godfather? What had I asked my old friend Charlie? (The Palace had published that Willy was my best man as I had been when he and Kate married)’, he wrote in the memoir.

He also added that his brother had been reluctant to participate in a walk and allegedly told him: ‘you don’t have to do everything [the press office] tells you to do it.

Harry claimed that he realized at that moment that he had been wrong to believe that the bond he shared with his brother would survive any kind of dispute.

However, he noted in the book that William eventually changed his mind after a meeting with the late Queen Elizabeth and agreed to take a walk outside King Edward Gate.

During their outing, Harry claimed that he invited his brother to spend the night with him again and that William agreed to go to dinner, but said he would have to go home with Kate and the kids.

At this point, the duke claims, he realized he was wrong in thinking that his bond with his brother was more important than any fight.

It comes as Prince Harry has detailed various altercations opposing him and his brother at Spare, including a heated argument over Meghan Markle at Nottingham Cottage, where he claimed the Prince of Wales grabbed him by the neck and made him fall to the ground. .

At another time, he stated his brother “jumped” on him and “grabbed his shirt twice” in front of his father during an argument about his interview with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021.

Harry, in his explosive memoir, detailed how Prince William was ‘screaming’ and ‘really fuming’ when he grabbed him during the spat with then-Prince Charles after his grandfather Prince Philip’s funeral.

After the dispute, Prince Harry alleges that William used a secret code phrase about the late Princess Diana that the two brothers share.
