Kate Middleton’s rare old comments about Prince William and Prince Harry resurfaced as reunion rumors grew after the Duke’s UK return. The Princess of Wales once told the royal brothers they were “amazingly close” during a 2017 Heads Together conversation. Her words gained fresh attention because the siblings remain estranged. The report framed the throwback as a reminder of their earlier bond before Harry’s 2023 memoir, “Spare,” was published and the subsequent years of public distance.
Kate Middleton previously talked about ‘incredibly’ close bond between Prince William and Prince Harry
According to HELLO!, Kate Middleton sat with Prince William and Prince Harry for Heads Together in 2017. The joint charity campaign focused on mental health. During the conversation, she referenced what the brothers had “sadly went through.” She then said their strength came from childhood and “the relationship that you’ve got.” Kate added, “You’re amazingly close.”
Meanwhile, William responded with a brief joke during the same exchange. He cut in with, “Most of the time!” Kate then stressed that their bond was not common. She told the royal brothers: “Some families sadly aren’t as lucky as you guys have been.” The report also said William reflected on his and Harry’s shared past. He said they were “uniquely bonded” because of what they had been through together.
But the article contrasted those comments with the brothers’ current distance. Harry also spoke about the bond in 2005. He said, “It’s amazing how close we’ve become.” The Duke added that William was the one person he could talk to “about anything.”
However, HELLO! noted Harry later described William in “Spare” as both his “beloved brother” and “arch-nemesis.” Royal expert Katie Nicholl said the Duke of Sussex’s relocation made reconciliation harder to avoid. She claimed Harry had William “over a barrel” because they were now geographically closer. Thus, for Kate, William, and Harry, the old remarks added fresh weight to reunion talk.
