Queen Elizabeth II would be “proud” of William’s gesture to Harry, Meghan

Queen Elizabeth II would be “proud” of Prince William for coordinating an unexpected meeting with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on Saturday, says the royal scribe.

Royal fans were thrilled as the estranged brothers and their wives stepped out of the car to greet the crowds gathered outside Windsor Castle.

William, Harry, Markle and Kate Middleton spent 40 minutes over the weekend watching a huge sea of ​​floral tributes paid outside the British castle in honor of the late monarch.

They also took the time to read their sympathetic notes and shake hands with kind people who were delighted with their presence.

The trip marked the first time the quartet performed together in public from the Commonwealth Day service on March 9, when the event was marked by gloomy faces and awkward body language.

We were told that the Prince of Wales, 40, was the one who actually issued an invitation for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to join him and Middleton on Saturday, which was graciously received.

“We are all very grateful – both sides put everything aside for the Queen,” said the only royal Page Six source.

By offering his brother an olive branch, William chose to live up to his grandmother’s creed, which King Charles III described as a person with “the unmistakable ability to see the best in people.”

“Clearly sensing that it was not a time for mutual accusations but for reconciliation, it was as if a 40-year-old father of three were trying to reflect his exalted status as the new” sovereign of life and health. ” the writer wrote in an article published by The Telegraph on Saturday.

“It was not just an expression of older brotherly love – but a declaration of his promotion to the second most important statesman in the Windsor House.”

However, this was not the first sign of the freezing of relations between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the royal family.

In his first public address to Britain and the Commonwealth as King Charles III, the new monarch showed support for his youngest son and daughter-in-law.

“I also want to express my love for Harry and Meghan who are still building their lives abroad,” Charles, 73, said of Harry, 37, and Markle, 40, in a pre-recorded video news that aired on TV Friday.

The queen was famously cited as a saying that it is “often small steps, not giant leaps, that bring about the most permanent change.”

With a small step of friendliness from William – and with the help of Peter Phillips’ “peacemaker” cousin – perhaps his gap with Harry will eventually begin to improve.
