During Harry's wedding last year, we could clearly see the strong bond the latter and Prince William shared. The affection and respect they had for each other were blatantly evident. But, as they say, all good things come to an end. It is almost upsetting to see that in less than 18 months there is a rift between the two brothers.

For months now, the rumor mill has been buzzing about bad blood brewing between the two - of which Prince Harry later confirmed during his latest interview in an ITV documentary. While Meghan seemingly garnered support from the Twitterverse after she revealed that she was "not okay" dealing with things as a new mum and as a royal, it seems like the royal family may not share the same sentiment.

Reports have mentioned that the family is doing their best to steer clear of drama to repair whatever damage has been done between each other - and that the Queen and Prince Charles were under the impression that after the birth of baby Archie, things would fall into place. But it seems like things aren't improving, which makes things even sadder especially since both Prince William and Prince Harry are aware that their late mother wanted them to always look out for each other.

Of course, all the negative press that started to make rounds during Markle's pregnancy didn't help. It was reported that Prince William questioned his younger brother's urgency in wanting to marry the Suits actress. Maybe this was because Prince William dated Kate for almost eight years before putting a ring on her finger while Harry didn't wait for long.

Although Prince William was merely advising his brother to be cautious, it is believed that Prince Harry misinterpreted his words. He also accused his brother of not offering any support while Kate was finding it difficult to get along with Markle. But, soon after the wedding, multiple shocks were delivered. One was that the Sussexes were moving out of Kensington Palace and the other was that the brothers were dividing their household.

That's not all. They have also parted ways over the charity work they handled together with Harry and Meghan starting their new charity venture by next year. So, it does look like Princess Diana's nightmares are coming true after all. But the fact remains that although William finds his brother's outpouring uncomfortable, he will always be there to support him.
