Prince William reportedly maintained his silence on Prince Harry's birthday, and sources said it was an intentional move. The Duke of Sussex celebrated his 42nd birthday on September 15.
His wife, Meghan Markle, shared a wholesome video of her husband to mark the occasion, while other members of the royal family also extended public birthday wishes. Prince William, however, did not issue any public message.
Sources cited by British media described the omission as deliberate, suggesting the estrangement between the brothers continues. The two have been publicly distant since Harry stepped back from royal duties in 2020.
Neither Kensington Palace nor representatives for the Prince of Wales have commented on the reports. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have not responded publicly to the claims about William's silence.
