A once close royal relationship may have reached its quiet breaking point behind palace doors, according to a new account from a royal author.
Prince Harry and Kate Middleton were once very close. Harry once called her the "sister he never had." He described her in his memoir Spare as carefree, sweet, and kind.
However, royal author Christopher Andersen wrote in his book Kate!: The Courage, Grace, and Power of the Woman Who Will Be Queen that the Princess of Wales hit her tipping point of no return after Harry spoke to reporters about King Charles' mortality.
Fox News Digital spoke to the author about what appeared to be the end of Harry and Kate's royal relationship. In the interview, the author reflected on the moments that reportedly led to the final breakdown in trust, suggesting there may be little chance of reconciliation moving forward.

"She would not give up," Andersen began. "Even after Harry threw William under the bus in his memoir ‘Spare,’ she was willing to keep trying. And the final break came."
"The final straw came really shortly after the king was diagnosed with cancer, when Harry [essentially] said, ‘I’d like to mend fences because we just don’t know how long [my father] has to live.’ Well, that kind of statement can be very hurtful to somebody who doesn’t really want to consider their own mortality and is battling cancer."

The author concluded, "It was hurtful to Kate as well, I believe. And, of course, it just ignited this firestorm of speculation about how sick the king really was at this point."
"Kate pretty much felt that would be it. She wasn’t going to try anymore. So she has not. And as a result, there has been no chance of any … As a matter of fact, I don’t think we’re ever going to see them make amends. At least it’s not on the horizon now."
In 2025, Harry told BBC News, "I would love reconciliation with my family. There’s no point in continuing to fight anymore. I don’t know how much longer my father has."
Kate Middleton and Prince William reportedly remain estranged from Prince Harry. He lives in California with his wife, Meghan Markle, and their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
