Prince William and his estranged brother Prince Harry are currently not on speaking terms and the Prince of Wales “hates even hearing Harry's name now”.
However, Princess of Wales Kate Middleton wanted to meet her brother-in-law Harry during his visit to London in May, when he appeared in court seeking to overturn the British government’s refusal to provide state-funded security.
According to a report by the Radar Online, but Kate Middleton’s plans were quietly shelved.
The insider said, "The timing just wasn't right. Tensions were running high, and William was firmly against it."
Moreover, there are also claims, "Kate gets upset seeing William so worked up about this. He hates even hearing Harry's name now.
"She's reminded him that carrying around all that anger isn't good for him, but she's decided to step back trying to heal their rift.
"She's done trying to be the one to fix things and thinks it is far better to protect the happiness of her marriage and husband than try and do Harry a favor."
Despite Kate Middleton’s decision, the insiders say the Princess of Wales still hopes for "peace in the long term."
"Kate still cares deeply for Harry and misses him, but she's stepped back from trying to mend things,” the source said and added "She never speaks ill of him, yet she's no longer urging any reconciliation either.”
The insider added, "Harry has pushed things too far in William's eyes. Kate's decided to focus on preserving her relationship with William and her own sense of calm."
