Prince Harry’s relationship with William is likely to now be irreparable with fresh criticism of the Royal family in the Sussexes’ Netflix series, a friend of the Prince of Wales claims.
The two brothers are said to have a fractious relationship with the Sussexes having been critical of the Royal Family since leaving the UK in 2020.
Living in the United States the Sussexes have regularly spoken to the American media about life in the Royal Family and the problems that they had.
And William is believed to be angry at the way that the Queen had to put up with this criticism during the final months of her life.
In Harry and Meghan's tell-all Netflix documentary, which began streaming on Thursday, Harry accused the royals of having a "huge level of unconscious bias" and Meghan saying the media wanted to "destroy" her.

But criticism of the late Queen and her Commonwealth legacy which was described as “Empire 2.0” was reportedly particularly upsetting for royal insiders.
"All relationships are built on trust but for members of the Royal Family, who live their life in the spotlight, doubly so," said a friend of the Prince of Wales, reported the Daily Mail.
William is reported to have not seen the documentary yet but the source said that it goes against what he believes in.

William tweeted on Thursday night, the same day as the Netflix series was released, that a friend of his had died in Kenya and that was what was on his mind.
He wrote: “Yesterday, I lost a friend, who dedicated his life to protecting wildlife in some of East Africa’s most renowned national parks. Mark Jenkins, and his son Peter, were tragically killed when flying over Tsavo National Park while conducting an aerial patrol.
“Tonight, I’m thinking about Mark’s wife, family and colleagues who’ve sadly lost a man we all loved and admired.”
