Tensions within the Royal Family have flared once again, as Prince William has reportedly dismissed Prince Harry’s recent claims about being stripped of royal security as “paranoid,” according to insiders.
In a report published by People Magazine, the Duke of Sussex alleged that the decision to revoke security for himself and his family after stepping back from royal duties was a strategic move by the Palace intended to pressure him into returning to the fold.

However, rather than feeling coerced, Harry claimed the action had the opposite effect. He reportedly saw it as confirmation of just how far the Royal Family was willing to go.
“People would be shocked by what’s being held back,” said Harry. “[My] worst fears have been confirmed by the whole legal disclosure in this case, and that’s sad.” According to Heat Magazine, Harry’s remarks didn’t take the Royal Family by surprise, though they still caused unease.
“Harry’s allegations didn’t come as a huge surprise to most of the royals,” a source told the magazine. “They’ve grown very accustomed to him laying the blame for his troubles squarely at his family’s door.” “But it still stings that he’s managed to have yet another dig, insinuating that they forged this elaborate plot to keep him and Meghan trapped in the UK,” the insider added.
Prince William, who has remained largely silent publicly amid the ongoing family fallout, is said to have dismissed his younger brother’s accusation as outlandish. According to the report, William believes Harry’s theory is “nothing short of ridiculous,” with one insider stating, “It only serves to show how paranoid Harry is.”

“Suffice to say, he’s got no interest in communicating with his brother when he’s in this headspace,” the source said. Despite his frustration, the Prince of Wales is still said to carry a sense of emotional conflict over the estrangement.
“He’s very saddened by the situation because Harry is still his brother, and he’ll always love him deep down,” the source added. “But he says establishing any type of dialogue or hoping to mend fences is untenable.”
The royal rift, which began with Harry and Meghan’s exit from royal life in 2020, has continued to deepen with legal battles, interviews, and public accusations. As both brothers pursue starkly different paths, hopes for reconciliation appear to be growing increasingly dim.
