Prince William And Prince Harry Reportedly Had A ‘Huge Rivalry’ Long Before 2020, Royal Expert Says: ‘They Were Never Friends’

Some people might think that Prince William and Prince Harry’s feud started around the time Meghan Markle came into the family. After all, Prince Harry, 38, wrote in his bombshell memoir Spare that he and William, 41, had a physical altercation about the 42-year-old former Suits actress, which led to William knocking him to the floor.
However, it doesn’t take much digging to discover that the brothers always had somewhat of a sibling rivalry between them (even though Princess Diana reportedly went out of her way to ensure her youngest son wasn’t treated as the spare.) Prince Harry touched on some of it in his memoir, which was released in January this year, and even referred to his brother as his “arch-nemesis.”
Royal author Ingrid Seward has touched on the sibling rivalry once again, and reiterated that they were “never really great friends” when they were growing up, which therefore makes the fact that Prince Harry regarded his old polo friend Jack Mann as his true best man, and not his older brother, more understandable.
