Prince William 'doesn't want to know Harry' as he's 'brainwashed by therapists'

An explosive passage in Omid Scobie's new book Endgame appears to shed light on the fractured relationship between Prince William and Prince Harry.

Royal writer Scobie, whose previous works include the Harry and Meghan biography Finding Freedom, has claimed that the Prince of Wales 'doesn't want to know' his younger brother, who he believes has been 'brainwashed an army of therapists'.

The two princes have had a strained relationship in recent times, with Prince Harry reflecting that he and Prince William were on "different paths" during his bombshell 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey. It would seem that there is still a sizeable gulf between the royal brothers, with Prince William reportedly finding his younger sibling to be barely recognisable.

According to an extract published in People magazine: "[William] believes Harry and Meghan blindsided the family, even the Queen, with their public complaints and their 'oh so California' self-importance (an opinion he has repeatedly voiced in various ways to friends and aides during the past two years). Convinced Harry's been brainwashed by an 'army of therapists', William says he no longer even recognises his own brother, a source said."

The extract continued: "As for how he feels about Harry since the release of Spare, a source close to the prince told me, 'There's a huge amount of anger there. He feels betrayed and sad about the situation. But he also doesn't agree with the things his brother feels he has done. He feels he has lost Harry and doesn't want to know this version of him'. That version, countered a Spencer family source, is simply 'Harry being a man who has stepped outside of the institution and sees things in a different light. They will never see eye to eye at this point. They're on completely opposite sides... that won't change."

Endgame is set to be released in full later this month, and has been described on Amazon as 'a penetrating investigation into the current state of the British monarchy'. The memoir's description reads: "An unpopular king, a power-hungry heir to the throne, a queen willing to go to dangerous lengths to preserve her image, and a prince forced to start a new life after being betrayed by his own family."
