Prince William is understanding of his father King Charles' reunion with Prince Harry, but he has no plans to reconnect with his estranged brother, according to royal expert Kinsey Schofield. Schofield theorized that William can appreciate a father living with cancer wanting to see his son and grandchildren, while still believing that Harry has not earned his way back into the family's confidence. She stated that William's priority is protecting the institution he will one day inherit, and the issue has never been whether Harry is family, but whether he can be trusted. Buckingham Palace confirmed that Charles and Queen Camilla hosted Harry, Meghan Markle, and their children at Highgrove House, marking the first time Charles has seen his grandkids in four years. Schofield believes the reunion doesn't erase the past and that a monarch still has to protect the Crown, noting that rebuilding trust is extraordinarily difficult. William avoided his younger brother during the UK trip, making separate public appearances just miles apart on July 7.
