Prince William and King Charles will not engage in a ‘tit for tat’ battle with Prince Harry and Meghan after their Netflix series, a source has said.

The £100m documentary Harry & Meghan has been called a “circus” by Palace sources, who say both the King and the heir will continue to maintain “dignified silence”.

It follows friends’ fears that the Prince of Wales is unlikely to reconcile with his estranged brother.

It is understood that the Prince has yet to watch the first three episodes of the documentary, but is expected to at some point.

Prince William and King Charles will not engage in a ‘tit for tat’ battle with Prince Harry and Meghan after their Netflix series, royal sources have said.

“There is certainly nothing in the first half worth getting involved with and nothing new about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex speaking publicly about their time in the royal family.

‘A dignified silence is the order of the day, as the focus is entirely on getting on with the work.’

It comes as friends told the Mail that Prince William was wary of Harry’s motives for participating in the docuseries given that his new book, Spare, is due to be published early next year.

Last night, Prince William revealed that on the same day the Netflix show aired, he lost a close friend in Kenya.

A source said: “All relationships are built on trust, but for members of the royal family, who live their lives in the spotlight, twice as much.”

The prince is a very private man and what Harry is doing is anathema to everything he believes in.
