Prince Harry and Prince William’s royal relationship isn’t exactly rosy nowadays. Let’s look at the brothers through the years.
Prince William and Prince Harry’s relationship has been in the spotlight since birth. Over the years, many have compared the future-King and his little brother, but it wasn’t until the release of Harry’s 2023 book Spare that people got a real account of the sibling rivalry.
Prince William was born June 21, 1982, and as King Charles and Princess Diana’s firstborn, his claim to the throne was inevitable. Prince Harry, born September 15, 1984, didn’t have to deal with the pressure of eventually inheriting the monarchy, but instead, found himself living in the shadows of his older brother. Both went on to serve in the military, but when each man married, their lives took different courses. Of course, Prince William and Kate Middleton have been committed to the crown, as the heirs apparent. When Harry married Meghan Markle, he felt even more alienated by the Palace, and eventually, that tension lead the couple to leave their royal duties and move to America in 2020.
In May 2025, Harry made a rare comment about his family during a BBC interview, noting that he wanted “reconciliation” with them, especially with his father, Charles.
With all eyes on the brother’s relationship, we’re taking a look at the boys’ best moments together. Ready for more moments between Prince Harry and William? See the brothers’ best photos here.
