For the first time, Prince Harry acknowledged a rift between himself and brother William. He explained that even though they care for each other, it’s normal they aren’t spending as much time together because they are on different paths.
Meghan Markle also opened up as well, lamenting the struggles she faces when it comes to blending into the royal family while coping with some negative stories from the press.

A royal source revealed to the UK Mirror that the senior royals are concerned for the couple and worry that Prince Harry is still struggling with grief, years after his mother’s death.
The insider reportedly said:
It seems the boy who walked behind their mother’s coffin, which is so vividly seared onto the nation’s consciousness, has never fully recovered, which is an utter tragedy.

Royal family members are reportedly disturbed to see the brothers drifting apart which would have been "the last thing Diana would have wanted."
BBC royal correspondent Jonny Dymond said that the royal family will be "pretty horrified" about Harry’s revelations. He explained that the monarchy is seen as a "unifying force" in the country but Harry and Meghan are "being divisive."

Royal insiders, however, hope that the six-week holiday that Harry and Meghan are about to embark upon will give them much-needed rest.
Prince Charles’ concern
It has also been reported that Prince Harry’s dad, Prince Charles is worried about his son as well. One royal source told US Weekly:
This is a time when Harry needs his family the most.

The bottom line is that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex feel they need to be cut some slack and hopefully, taking some off from the public eye will be helpful. It really can’t be easy being so deeply scrutinized and having every move monitored.
Let’s wish the Sussexes well as they try to navigate these difficult waters.
