Kate ‘Reached Limit’ With Harry, Author Says
Princess Catherine reportedly hit a “final straw” moment with Prince Harry after comments he made about King Charles’s cancer diagnosis, according to royal biographer Christopher Andersen. The claim is made in Andersen’s new biography about the Princess of Wales, which describes her role behind the scenes as the rift between Prince William and Prince Harry deepened.
Express reported that Andersen said Catherine’s efforts to encourage reconciliation ended after the Duke of Sussex spoke in an early May BBC interview about wanting to “mend fences” because he did not know “how much longer” his father had to live while Charles was undergoing cancer treatment.
Andersen, speaking to Fox News Digital, said Catherine had previously been willing to keep trying even after Harry’s memoir Spare, but argued the remarks about the King’s mortality were “hurtful” and prompted intense public speculation about how unwell Charles might be. The author also suggested the comments hardened Prince William’s stance, describing the Prince of Wales as furious about the interview.
In his book, Andersen also wrote that Catherine had been close to both brothers earlier in their adulthood and at times acted as a go-between, a dynamic previously explored in BritpopNews coverage when Christopher Andersen claimed Kate ‘was done’ with Harry.
The claims come as the Royal Family continues to face scrutiny over the prospect of any future rapprochement, with palace aides typically declining to comment on biographies and third-party accounts of private conversations.
