Harry no longer part of the «team»
The whole royal family was taken aback by Harry’s and Meghan’s decision to step down. Not even the Queen had been informed of the move beforehand. The monarch was “deeply hurt and disappointed” and was seriously concerned about the mental well-being of her “fragile” grandson.

Prince William is also hit hard by the crisis. The gap between the brothers began to open when Meghan appeared and now seems almost insurmountable. According to the “Sunday Times”, the Duke of Cambridge revealed to a friend: “I have put my arm around my brother all my life and I can no longer do that.” And further: “We are no longer a unit.”

William was frustrated that Harry was no longer part of the “team”. But he hoped for a time when the Sussexes would be “on the same wavelength” again. (Voi)
