Coleen Nolan was in a savage mood during today’s edition of Loose Women, as she branded Denise Welch a conspiracy theorist and poked fun at Ruth Langsford’s fashion sense

Coleen Nolan couldn’t resist making a cheeky dig at one of her Loose Women co-stars during today’s edition of the ITV show.

Ruth Langsford was leading the panel during today’s discussion, which saw Coleen brand Denise Welch ‘a conspiracy theorist’ during a passionate chat about the GP crisis facing the NHS.

Not content with taking a swipe at Denise, Coleen also found the time to make Ruth the butt of one of her jokes as the show aired – with Ruth brushing the jibe off and telling the audience not to encourage her.

The awkward exchanges during today’s edition of Loose Women come as it’s rumoured many of the panellists don’t get along when the cameras stop rolling – with Denise breaking her silence on the drama earlier this month.

During today’s offering from the panel, Ruth revealed a little off-camera jibe from Coleen.

“Sorry but do you know what she just said to me?” Ruth began telling viewers.

“Glad you could make it in from EasyJet today,” she went on to reveal – looking down at her bright orange shirt as she shared the joke.

“Don’t encourage her,” Ruth pleaded with the audience as they burst into laughter.

Giggling, Coleen declared: “You look lovely!”

Denise denied a feud between herself and her Loose Women co-stars earlier this month, but revealed she’s not afraid to be passionate during fiery debates.

The ITV daytime show often sees the regular commentators clash over wide ranging topics, and reports of infighting between the stars have surfaced through the years.

However, Denise is keen to put the rumours to bed. It comes after she hit out at reports of a feud between herself co-star Charlene White over her time with Matt Hancock in the jungle.

“I’m not afraid to be passionate and committed about something, we all have different views, we’re great friends,” she told The Sun.

“I do get upset that people are trying to make out that we’re always in some backstage feud.”

The former Dancing on Ice star added: “I haven’t fallen out with any of them in 20 years – but we have very feisty debates.”

*Loose Women airs weekdays from 12.30pm on ITV

Loose Women host Kaye Adams was joined by Kelle Bryan, Jane Moore and Linda Robson in the ITV studio as the lunchtime show discussed the Nicola Bulley case

The Loose Women panel turned heated on Thursday morning as the presenters discussed the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of missing mother Nicola Bulley

The 45-year-old went missing last month during a riverside dog walk in St Michael’s on Wyre and Lancashire Police yesterday announced the mother-of-two had ‘significant issues’ with alcohol brought on by her ongoing struggles with menopause.

Loose Women host Kaye Adams was joined by Kelle Bryan, Jane Moore and Linda Robson in the ITV studio as the lunchtime show discussed the decision to release the fresh information.

The police have been criticised by some for disclosing such personal details about Nicola, but former Hollyoaks star Kelle stressed the importance of the public holding the police to account.

Kelle raised the low trust in the police, in the wake of several high profile cases of failings, most recently with convicted rapist Metropolitan police officer David Carrick.

She said: “People have every right to ask those questions. I’m not talking about keyboard warriors, I’m talking about those people who come from an informed place.”

She added: “As a member of the public, we are entitled to ask those questions,” to which Kaye then cut in to ask whether it was helpful during the ongoing investigation.

Kelle maintained it was, given the police force’s track record, adding: “Some of it’s positive and some it hasn’t been so positive.

“We can look at the Stephen Lawrence case, with a plethora of failings by the police. That family was right to ask those questions. Asking questions is what helps to solve cases.

“I’m not saying it’s right to put things on social media, turn up at the scene or attack the partner, but I do think we have a right to ask those questions.

“If we look at David Carrick of Wayne Couzens – there are so many cases where the police have had catastrophic failings.”

However, fellow panellist Jane pushed back and noted there are hundreds of thousands of police officers in the country, as she started to add: “To besmirch them all–” before Kelle cut in saying: “I didn’t besmirch them all.”

Jane hit back saying: “You can’t take two cases,” but Kelle cut in: “I didn’t take two, I took three.”

Jane took the conversation back to Nicola Bulley as she praised the work of officers on the ground, concluding: “I think we have to trust them.”

Kelle insisted: “I’ve not in any way said anything about this case in terms of how they are handling it. What I am saying is we have a right to ask questions.”

Yet Kelle again cut in, apologising to Kaye as she said: “I’m sorry, Kaye, but if Doreen Lawrence hadn’t asked the questions she asked at that time, there’s no way that would –”

Jane again jumped back into the fray as she pointed out Doreen Lawrence was ‘perfectly entitled’ to do so as a member of the family affected by the case.

Jane added: “It’s not Mrs Norrings in Newcastle asking, when she has no involvement in the case whatsoever,” as Kaye agreed: “The family absolutely have every right to question an investigation but the whole world and its wife are weighing in on this one. That’s when I wonder how useful it is.”

Trinidad and Tobago is planning to redesign its coat of arms to put distance between its history of colonialism – this also includes removing a depiction of three ships used by Christopher Columbus

Trinidad and Tobago’s redesign of its coat of arms could see Her Majesty the Queen removed amid a plan to scrap the symbol of colonialism.

The Caribbean nation has already said it wants to take away a depiction of three ships used by Christopher Columbus. Many islanders feel the explorer’s expeditions to the area paved the way for centuries of European colonial rule and enslavement in the region.

The plan is to replace ships – the Pinta, the Niña and the Santa María – with the steelpan, the famous percussion instrument that originated in the Caribbean nation. The government has asked residents of the twin islands whether they support removing statues, signs, and monuments with colonial ties.

At a meeting late Wednesday, people of African, European, and Indigenous descent stepped up to the microphone one by one to voice their thoughts. Some thought the government needed to go further than just Columbus.

“What the hell is the queen still doing on top of the coat of arms? Please let us put her to rest,” said Eric Lewis, a member of the First Peoples.

Her late Majesty is represented on the nation’s coat of arms above the shield. A golden helmet facing the front represents Queen Elizabeth II, the colony’s ruler at the time of its design.

Trinidad and Tobago was first colonised by the Spanish, who ruled it for nearly 300 years before ceding it to the British, who governed it for more than 160 years until the islands’ independence in 1962.

The colonial imprint remains throughout streets and plazas, with a statue of Columbus dominating a square of the same name in the capital of Port-of-Spain.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle spent 72 hours in Nigeria over the weekend to promote the Invictus Games and one royal expert has said Meghan thinks they did a great job

Meghan Markle smiled throughout her trip to Nigeria earlier this year with Prince Harry, with one expert suggesting she enjoyed being treated like a part-time member of the Royal Family.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex travelled to Nigeria over the weekend as they worked to promote the Invictus Games. Their trip was successful, as they participated in fundraising events and met with key figures. Some experts have branded the Nigerian visit a “mini royal trip” and royal author Tom Quinn thinks Meghan was pleased with “being treated as a great figure”. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror, he said: “Meghan sees her visit to Nigeria as a huge success and proof that she was right all along – she and Harry should have been allowed to be part-time royals, because they are really good at it.”

While Meghan seemed happy and confident on the trip, Tom believes Harry was a bit more unsure of himself. He explained: “Meghan’s face during the Nigeria tour said it all. Her pleasure in being treated as a great figure was unmistakable. Harry on the other hand often looked unsure of himself; he had that unconfident, slightly sad-little-boy look – the look of someone asked to do something he was never quite sure of by his more confident partner. Swept up by his wife’s confidence it may never have occurred to Harry that playing at being on an official Royal tour to Nigeria just makes his brother and his father King Charles even more furious with him and even more determined to push him away.”

Tom previously told The Mirror King Charles and Prince William have been left “absolutely furious” over Harry and Meghan’s tour. He claimed: “William is absolutely furious and determined to find a way to stop this happening in future. Charles is said to be angrier than anyone has ever seen him. What’s really upset the applecart is the fact that that the Nigerians treated Meghan and Harry as if they too thought this was an official tour – all the signs were there as the couple were greeted with dances, receptions, visits to schools and charities.”

However, a source close to the Sussexes has insisted their trip to Nigeria had nothing to do with the Royal Family. Speaking to People magazine, the source said the Nigeria tour was “not an attempt to highlight any perceived gaps in the Royal Family’s workload, which is currently affected not only by Harry and Meghan’s absence but also King Charles’ and Kate Middleton’s cancer treatments.”

Meghan’s Step Mom Finally Breaks Silence: Exposed Rotten Heartless Meghan’s True Face On Air

Greetings royal fans and drama lovers! It’s your favorite neighborhood critic back with yet another steaming hot take on the ongoing saga of Prince Harry, Meghan Markle, and her family. Buckle up because we’re diving deep into the murky waters of Markle’s family drama and let me tell you – this latest chapter is juicier than a ripe peach on a summer day.

 

Now I know you’re probably thinking “haven’t we heard enough about Meghan’s family issues already?” But just when we thought we’d heard all the gossip, a new player has entered the stage: Meghan’s stepmother Roslyn Markle. And boy does she have some piping hot tea to spill! Let’s set the scene – Prince Harry is on the radio talking about how the royals have become Meghan’s new family, implying her birth family wasn’t enough. Big mistake, Harry! That set off the whole Markle clan like nothing else.

Meghan’s half-brother Thomas Jr. wasted no time slamming Harry’s claims, insisting Meghan had a “really good family” who gave her everything. Ouch, that’s gotta sting. It paints Meghan as some ungrateful princess who ditched her loving family for titles and status. Not a great look, Meg! But then Roslyn enters with an unexpected twist – she’s not here to bash Meghan at all. According to Roslyn, it’s distance, not tension, that’s kept Meghan from her family over the years.

Now let’s unpack this – Roslyn is telling us Meghan’s acting career and busy schedule meant the family simply drifted apart over time and distance. No drama, just life getting in the way. But my BS detector is blaring – are we really supposed to believe Meghan couldn’t find time to call or video chat with her family when she was able to maintain a long-distance romance with Harry? Something isn’t adding up here.

And it gets juicier! Roslyn then mentions Meghan doesn’t talk much to her estranged half-sister Samantha. Big mistake – Samantha wasted no time blowing up Roslyn’s claims on Twitter! She dismissed Roslyn as having no real relation to Meghan and accused her of being “crazy” to comment at all. Samantha flung dates around insisting Roslyn wasn’t in the picture since the 70s. It’s like watching a family feud unfold before our eyes – and it ain’t pretty.

But here’s the kicker – Samantha says Roslyn only knows about Meghan from what she’s read online. How rich, the pot calling the kettle black! Because let’s be real – how well does Samantha actually know Meghan these days? It’s not like they’re BFFs slumber partying and braiding each other’s hair. When you take a step back, it’s clear everyone in this family drama has their own agenda and version of events. But none of the stories add up completely.

Through it all, one person has stayed conspicuously silent – Meghan herself. Is she watching this circus unfold from her California mansion, sipping fancy tea while her family tears itself apart in public? It’s beyond frustrating. Meghan has a huge platform and voice – if she wanted to set the record straight or repair bridges, she could. But instead she lets the drama play out like some twisted reality show.

It’s almost like she’s benefiting from the constant headlines and attention each new family scandal brings. Every time a relative speaks out, Meghan is front and center in the news cycle again. Even the latest supposed bombshell – that Meghan now regrets her royal life and misses Hollywood – just keeps her name in lights. And what a slap in the face to Harry, claiming he’s now “wasting his life” after all he gave up for her. Talk about lacking gratitude!

Through it all, real people are getting hurt. Relationships and trust are being destroyed, perhaps irreparably. And for what? Headlines? Attention? It’s sad to see, because somewhere under the manipulations and drama is likely a real person who’s lost their way. But it’s not too late – Meghan still has time to take the high road, reach out to mend fences, and use her platform to unite and inspire. However, based on her actions so far, I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting.

So in conclusion, the never-ending saga of Meghan Markle and her family’s public feuds just keeps gaining new chapters. It’s a sad tale of missed opportunities and damage caused by wasted words. But what do you think, loyal readers – victim or puppet master? Reality check or manipulation? Share your thoughts below! Don’t forget to like and subscribe for more piping hot royal tea. This is your friendly neighborhoo critic signing off until next time, when yet another plot twist is sure to unfold. Keep it real, and remember – ink is thicker than blood in the royal world! Stay sassy, friends

BREAKING NEWS : Palace Confirmed! Prince William and Princess Catherine to Welcome Twins!

The palace has just confirmed what many royal fans have been eagerly speculating: Prince William and Kate Middleton are expecting twins! This joyous news has sent waves of excitement across the globe, marking a monumental moment not just for the British royal family but for royal enthusiasts everywhere.

A Historic Moment for the Royal Family

This announcement is not only a heartwarming addition to the already beloved family of five but also carries historical significance. Prince William, the future King of England, and his wife, Catherine, are no strangers to public fascination. Their every move, from their wedding to the birth of their three children, has captivated people worldwide. The news of them expecting twins is bound to continue that tradition of widespread interest.

This is especially exciting because the royal family hasn’t had twins in recent history, making this a unique event. The last known royal twins were born over 500 years ago, which adds to the excitement surrounding the news. As the couple prepares for the new additions to their family, royal watchers are buzzing with anticipation about how these two new heirs could shape the future of the monarchy.

Public Reaction to the Announcement

Royal fans and media outlets are already ablaze with excitement. Social media is flooded with well-wishes and speculations about the potential names and gender of the babies. The royal couple is known for choosing meaningful and traditional names for their children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis—so there’s bound to be significant interest in their choice of names for the twins.

Many royal followers are also intrigued by how the couple will handle the addition of two new children into their already busy family life. Kate, often praised for her calm, nurturing demeanor, has been a hands-on mother despite her royal obligations. She has spoken in the past about the joys and challenges of motherhood, and the arrival of twins will no doubt bring new experiences.

The Joy of the Cambridge Family

With three young children already—Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6—Prince William and Kate are seasoned parents. The couple has always shown immense love and dedication to raising their children in as normal an environment as possible, given their royal status. Prince William has often emphasized the importance of maintaining a sense of stability and routine for his family, despite the public attention they receive.

It’s easy to imagine that George, Charlotte, and Louis will be thrilled by the idea of becoming big brothers and sister to two new siblings. The royal children are often seen at public events, charming onlookers with their playful and well-behaved manner, and the addition of two babies will surely make for an even more heartwarming dynamic.

What’s Next for William and Kate?

While the excitement surrounding the royal couple is high, the road ahead is likely filled with preparation and planning. Raising twins is a new experience for both William and Kate, and the challenges of caring for newborns—along with fulfilling their royal duties—will likely test their stamina. However, the support system around the royal family is extensive, and they will undoubtedly have the best care and help available.

As they prepare for the new arrivals, it’s expected that Kate will take some time away from her public engagements to focus on her health and well-being. Her previous pregnancies have been marked by hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe form of morning sickness, which could influence how much she is seen in the coming months.

The Future of the Monarchy

The arrival of the twins will undoubtedly play a significant role in the future of the British royal family. With Prince George already in line to inherit the throne, the twins will join their siblings in growing up as part of a new generation of royals. Their upbringing will be closely watched, and many are eager to see how they fit into the royal family’s evolving role in a modern world.

As Prince William and Kate continue to be the face of a more modern, approachable monarchy, the arrival of twins will likely further solidify their position as the beloved faces of the future royal family. The excitement around this news is a testament to the public’s affection for the couple and their growing family.

In the months to come, the world will be watching closely as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge prepare to welcome their newest additions, eagerly awaiting the next chapter in this modern royal fairytale.

Royal snub: Will Kate Middleton and Prince William snub the Sussex couple’s big event?

Katie Price faces HUMILIATION as a tourist in Turkey shouts at her: ‘You’re disgusting and vile, get out of here!’

A disgruntled tourist has taken aim at Katie Price, saying the star ruined their stay at a five star hotel in Turkey.

The former glamour model, 46, took residence at the £133 per-night Sheraton Ataköy Hotel in Istanbul to recover from her sixth face lift.

Holiday goers said they were unable to relax when Katie arrived because they were so shocked by her appearance.

One tourist slammed the television personality for using the pool with ‘staples holding their scalp on and incisions weeping with pus’ in a review on Trip Advisor.

Katie returned to the UK on Thursday evening where she was arrested at Heathrow after failing to attend a court bankruptcy hearing.

Earlier this week, Katie was pictured at the hotel looking bruised and bloodied with surgical tape held taut on the side of her face with wounds by her ears visible.

The two star review read: ‘We’re here at the moment and couldn’t fault this wonderful hotel until an infamous British celebrity and her entourage arrived and our opinion changed dramatically.

‘Who wants to relax and dine at a hotel looking at someone with blood all over their face, staples holding their scalp on and incisions weeping with pus.

‘Oh and she used the swimming pool as well… I’m not sure this hotel should be used as a recovery facility for plastic surgery.

‘It’s certainly put me off both visiting again and recommending it to anyone.’

MailOnline has contacted Katie’s representatives for comment.

Katie was arrested upon her arrival in the UK at Heathrow Airport.

Pictures showed her being taken away in a police van with her head covered in bandages and black tape after the surgery.

She will be remanded in custody and appear in court on Friday.

Katie’s arrest meant her boyfriend JJ Slater, who also flew with her to Turkey along with her son Harvey, 22, was left to pick up her bags.

Confirming her arrest, a Metropolitan Police spokesperson told MailOnline: ‘A 46-year-old woman from Surrey was arrested at Heathrow Airport at 7.45hrs on Thursday, 8 August for failing to appear at court.

‘She has been remanded in custody at a west London police station to appear at the Royal Courts of Justice tomorrow, Friday, 9 August.’The TV star was aware she would be detained at the airport but had asked police that they ‘allow some dignity and protection’ for Harvey claiming it would be ‘extremely disturbing for him to see’.

Earlier in the day, Katie acknowledged she will be arrested after failing to appear in front of a judge last Tuesday as a part her £760,000 bankruptcy court proceedings.

In a statement posted to Instagram, the mum-of-five claimed she had been in Turkey filming a documentary.

She said on return from work, she would be ‘detained at the airport’ which is what the ‘courts feel is necessary.’

Discussing her son Harvey, 22, who is with her in Turkey, Katie asked they ‘allow some dignity and protection for at least his sake as this will be extremely disturbing for him to see’.

While acknowledging the ‘severity’ of the matter, Katie said she was being treated ‘like a criminal’ and declared the ‘unfortunate financial circumstance’ did not make her a ‘criminal or bad person’.

Defiantly, the former model said she was ‘not embarrassed or ashamed’ regarding the arrest.

She explained her bankruptcy was due to ‘serious mental health issues and breakdowns from PTSD’.

She added she would be paying back debtors and hoped for ‘Harvey’s sake it’s handled with care and compassion’.

Her statement comes after she was ordered to pay £25,000 after being declared bankrupt twice.

A judge at a previous hearing said Price risked arrest if she did not attend further court dates, adding evidence must be provided if she could not appear.

Issuing the arrest warrant, Judge Burton said she had ‘failed to attend today’s hearing’ and had provided no explanation for her absence.

She said: ‘It is in my judgment necessary that the court issue a warrant for Ms Price’s arrest.

‘She has no real excuse in failing to attend today’s hearing.’

She continued: ‘The reason for her absence today is irrelevant.’

Judge Burton said that an arrest warrant was not issued ‘lightly’ but that Price had offered only ‘piecemeal co-operation’ and failed to provide the ‘most basic information’ in relation to her bankruptcies.

Previously, Katie was served an eviction notice that ordered her to leave her Mucky Mansion by the end of May and has since moved into a £5,000 per month new Tudor-style property.

Katie  was declared bankrupt for a second time in March over an unpaid tax bill of £761,994.05 after first being declared bankrupt in 2019.

However, at the end of July she claimed ‘everything is sorted’ with her second bankruptcy after being evicted from her Sussex bolthole.

Katie flew to Turkey on 29 July, sharing a snap of her on a plane just hours before her court hearing the day after.

Katie – whose £2million ‘mucky mansion’ was recently repossessed – was joined on the jaunt by pal Lou Anderson.

 

She also jetted away with Married at First Sight star and boyfriend JJ, 31.

Katie is understood to have had the face lift at the Trio Clinic in Istanbul, with work being carried out on her eyes and under her chin.

She also underwent another dental procedure, sharing pictures of her new veneers on Wednesday.

On Instagram, she posted snaps of her new dental work, wearing sunglasses with the name of the dental surgery ‘Dentica’ on.

Katie was also seen in Istanbul with son Harvey, revealing her latest surgically enhanced looks in a pair of oversized sunglasses, which did little to hide the bandages, staples and surgical tape around her face.

Taking on Instagram last Wednesday, Katie dismissed recent claims that she has travelled to Turkey after being turned down by other cosmetic surgeons.

She said: ‘I’m filming my new documentary. The reason I’ve chose the Trio Clinic is because I’ve had friends who have had surgery there and in my opinion they are the best for what I want doing.

‘I can’t wait, they’re amazing, and they’re thorough here.’

Last Tuesday, Katie shared a statement on her Instagram account saying she is ‘aware of the severity’ of her financial situation.

King Charles and Queen Camilla find themselves at the center of a scandal that threatens to unravel the very fabric of the Royal Family. A shocking betrayal, laid bare by none other than Tom Parker Bowles, has exposed deep divisions within the royal ranks, leaving Prince William’s carefully orchestrated grand plan in tatters.

 

 

The Shocking Betrayal

In an explosive interview, Tom Parker Bowles, the son of Queen Camilla, has come forward with claims that have sent shockwaves through the corridors of Buckingham Palace. According to Parker Bowles, a series of secretive actions and decisions by King Charles and Camilla have undermined key initiatives championed by Prince William, casting doubt on the unity and future direction of the monarchy.

Parker Bowles’ revelations have ignited a media firestorm, with royal insiders suggesting that this betrayal could have far-reaching implications for the Royal Family’s public image and internal dynamics. The disclosure has also raised questions about the loyalty and integrity of the royal couple, with many wondering how such a rift could have gone unnoticed until now.

William’s Grand Plan in Ruins

Prince William, who has long been seen as the future of the monarchy, is reportedly reeling from the fallout of this betrayal. Sources close to the prince reveal that William had been working tirelessly on a grand plan to modernize and stabilize the Royal Family, positioning it for a new era of public service and engagement. However, the actions of King Charles and Camilla have thrown these efforts into disarray, leaving William’s vision for the future of the monarchy in jeopardy.

The nature of the betrayal remains shrouded in mystery, but royal watchers are speculating that it could involve key decisions about royal duties, public appearances, and the distribution of responsibilities among the younger members of the Royal Family. The tension between William’s vision and the traditionalist approach favored by King Charles and Camilla appears to have reached a breaking point, with potentially devastating consequences for the monarchy’s future.

Parker Bowles Reveals All

Tom Parker Bowles’ decision to go public with these revelations has raised eyebrows, with many questioning his motivations and the potential impact on his relationship with his mother, Queen Camilla. In his tell-all account, Parker Bowles did not hold back, painting a picture of a Royal Family deeply divided by conflicting interests and personal ambitions.

According to Parker Bowles, King Charles and Camilla have been working behind the scenes to assert their influence over key royal decisions, often sidelining Prince William in the process. These actions, Parker Bowles claims, have not only undermined William’s authority but have also created a rift within the family that may be difficult to heal.

Hopes that Prince William and Prince Harry might reconcile at the recent funeral of Lord Robert Fellowes were quickly dashed when the brothers, despite standing just five yards apart, did not exchange a single word. This marked the first time they had been in the same space since King Charles III’s coronation.

According to reports, their mutual estrangement was palpable, with no effort made to bridge the deepening rift between them.

Harry had flown to the UK in the hope that the shared grief might offer an opportunity for him and William to reconnect. However, the reality was far different.

Despite Reverend Dan Tanzi, who led the service, expressing surprise and pleasure at both brothers attending, it was clear that William was not interested in any form of reconciliation. Harry had reportedly harbored a faint hope that they might have a heart-to-heart conversation, but William’s apparent anger, particularly after the release of Harry’s memoir Spare, remained fresh.

Sources indicate that Harry was left emotionally shaken after the funeral, as he realized the depth of his brother’s continued rejection. His belief that a brief private conversation could mend their relationship seems increasingly unrealistic, given the widening gulf between them.

The tensions, especially with the upcoming paperback release of Spare, are said to be at an all-time high, making a potential reconciliation appear unlikely anytime soon.

The recent reunion of Prince William and Prince Harry at Lord Robert Fellowes’s funeral, once seen as a potential moment of reconciliation, has instead underscored the deepening rift between the two brothers. Despite standing just a few yards apart during the service, the once-close siblings did not exchange a single word, highlighting the strained nature of their relationship.

This marks the first time the brothers have been in the same space since the coronation of their father, King Charles III, earlier this year. Harry had flown in secretly for the funeral, perhaps hoping that this shared moment of mourning could offer an opportunity for him and William to reconnect. However, any hope for a heart-to-heart conversation was dashed as William, still hurt and angry, maintained his distance.

The tension between the two has been building for years, exacerbated by the release of Harry’s tell-all memoir Spare, which William reportedly sees as a public betrayal. The funeral was another missed chance for the brothers to mend fences, and sources say that Harry was left deeply emotional and shaken by the encounter. His belief that a brief private conversation could heal the wounds between them seems increasingly unlikely as the divide between them continues to widen.

With the paperback release of Spare looming and tensions between the royal family members at an all-time high, the possibility of reconciliation appears to be fading. While Harry still holds out hope for a reunion, those close to the situation suggest that the chances of this happening anytime soon are slim, especially with William’s deep sense of betrayal over his brother’s public revelations. The once-unbreakable bond between the two princes now feels like a distant memory, overshadowed by conflict and unresolved tension.

Their bitter feud has raged for years – but Prince William and Prince Harry have had a secret reunion.

Yesterday, they were both at a church in Norfolk for the funeral of their late uncle Lord Robert Fellowes. Harry flew from the US to join William at the service at St Mary’s Church in Snettisham, Norfolk, on Thursday. It is the first time they have attended the same event since their father King Charles’ Coronation last May – although on that day, they did not sit together and weren’t spotted speaking. And it appears it was much of the same yesterday, with the brothers making a discreet appearance, sitting apart at the back of the church.

A local resident told The Sun that the brothers kept their distance and did not speak to each other. The funeral comes just days before the anniversary of the death of William and Harry’s mother Princess Diana. It was 27 years ago tomorrow that she died at the age of 36 following a car crash in Paris. And royal biographer Ingrid Seward told the Mirror Harry’s attendance is exactly what his late mother would have done – and it would have been William more worried to see his younger brother.

She explained: “Diana would have certainly flown the 5,500 miles from California to Norfolk for a family funeral. Harry is close to Robert Fellowes’ widow Jane. She and sister Sarah come to all of Harry’s UK events and were at Archie’s christening. The thought of having to see his estranged brother would not have worried Harry as much as the other way around. I am certain they were civil to each other. A funeral is not the time to settle scores. Or indeed a time to make up as Harry is well aware.”

Meanwhile, Ingrid believes Diana would have been heartbroken at the fact her sons have a fractured relationship – and her wish for them before she died may have to wait a little longer given the fact they did not appear to talk at the service yesterday.

She added: “Twenty-seven years after that fatal crash in Paris in August 1997 we still think of Diana. So of course, do William and Harry. They both talk about her and Harry says he knows Diana would have been proud of him moving to California and leaving royal life behind. It is after all, what she wanted to do herself. But she didn’t, as she was afraid of losing access to her boys if she moved so far away.

“What she wouldn’t have liked is the deepening estrangement between the two brothers. William has reportedly let it be known he would not even contemplate Harry’s presence at his Coronation when the time comes.

“That is fighting talk. It illustrates how much Harry has hurt his brother by revealing their personal disagreements in his autobiography Spare. The book is due out in paperback at the end of October as a sad reminder of the accusations of who did what to whom.

“Diana always said she wanted her boys to be there for each other. She told them to promise her, ‘they would always be each other’s best friends. And never let anyone come between you’ At the time of her death, she had no reason to believe otherwise. But Diana’s most ardent wish will not be fulfilled – not yet anyway.”
