William, Kate, Harry and Meghan reunited: the Queen would have been “proud and relieved”, according to an expert

• The Fab Four met for the first time in over two years
• Elizabeth II would have been happy to see her grandsons reconciled
• Harry, Meghan, William and Kate have calmed things down

It took a tragedy for the tensions to subside… While they had been waging a cold war for many months, princes William and Harry put their resentment aside to unite in mourning. Both present for the last moments of Elizabeth II, the brothers made an unexpected and almost unexpected joint appearance. This Saturday, September 10, the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex decided to go together to the British massed in front of Windsor Castle, accompanied by their wives, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. An image that will stand out since we had not seen them side by side for two long years and the Sussexes’ last involvement with the royal family before they left it.

“It was the best gift the queen could hope for”writes a journalist from the Mirror, moved by this image that we no longer expected. Between the walls of Balmoral, in Scotland, princes Harry and William have surely had the opportunity to calm tensions. “In this Scottish castle where almost exactly 25 years ago the brothers were woken in the early morning to learn that their mother had died in a car accident in Paris, the death of their beloved grandmother left them see beyond the ditch?she wonders. According to her, it is King Charles III who is at the origin of this reconciliation since for his first speech as sovereign, he decided to quote Prince William and Kate Middleton but also Prince Harry and Meghan “who continue to build their lives abroad”.

Harry and William reunited: “it would have been an immense comfort for the queen”

And while the road to a deal may be a long one – the royal family remain wary of what Prince Harry will say in his memoirs and are worried about the future of the Sussexes’ partnership with Spotify and Netflix -, the death of Elizabeth II marked an important turning point in relations. “The four can at least show unity when necessary, they can act with propriety and dignity, she notes. There is a long way to go. But their grandmother would surely have been relieved and proud.” Expert Ingrid Seward draws the same conclusion from this appearance of the Fab Four. “It would have been a huge comfort to the Queen who at times seemed to be the only thread linking Harry to his family”explains the journalist specializing in the Crown.

“It is quite possible that through these strong emotions, the brothers will become friends again rather than enemies. Grieving brings families togetherassures the specialist. It could have been one of the Queen’s last fervent wishes that her family be reunited.” In the coming days, Prince William and Prince Harry should therefore put things in order and unite around a single goal: to honor the memory of their beloved grandmother as it should. Next Monday, September 19, the Fab Four should once again support each other at the funeral of Elizabeth II. It could also be that by this date Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will bring their children to England. It would be a first for little Lilibet, the only member of the royal family who will never have had time to meet Elizabeth II.
