Prince William Unbothered as Harry and Meghan ‘Make It About Them,’ Sources Reveal
Prince William’s meeting with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has reportedly left Prince Harry and Meghan Markle feeling “hurt” and “betrayed,” but insiders claim the Prince of Wales remains unfazed by their reaction. According to Closer Magazine, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were shocked to learn that William met with Trump in Paris without informing them first, particularly given Trump’s past criticisms of the couple.
An insider close to the royal family revealed, “The whole situation has triggered a storm of emotions for Harry and Meghan. They’re hurt and angry and genuinely quite shocked.” Despite their reaction, Prince William is said to be completely unbothered by the Sussexes’ feelings, viewing the meeting as part of his royal duties.
“William doesn’t care at all,” the insider stated bluntly. “He’s very clear that he was simply doing his duty, being professional, and he finds it pretty telling that Harry and Meghan would manage to make it about them.”
The source added that William is firm in his stance and has no intention of apologizing to Harry or Meghan. “He’s not going to apologize for doing his job, and he’s certainly not going to worry about how what he does to protect his country will be perceived by them,” the insider said. “They need to grow up already!”
The reported friction comes amid ongoing tensions between the brothers, which have been widely publicized since Harry and Meghan’s departure from royal duties in 2020. While the Sussexes have been critical of their treatment within the royal family, William has remained steadfast in prioritizing his responsibilities as the future king.
This latest disagreement highlights the deepening divide between the brothers, with William’s no-nonsense attitude toward his duties contrasting sharply with Harry and Meghan’s reaction to his meeting with Trump.
For William, the encounter with the U.S. president-elect was simply part of his professional role as Prince of Wales. However, for Harry and Meghan, the event reportedly triggered unresolved emotions, further fueling the rift between the once-close siblings.
As the royal family continues to navigate these challenges, insiders suggest that William’s focus remains on his responsibilities, regardless of how his actions are interpreted by the Sussexes.
