Indeed we all know that Prince William and Prince Harry aren’t in a great place right now, not since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex released their Netflix documentary and Harry’s memoir, Spare.
This feud between the brothers, which may have started in their childhood, could be a problem for the planning of King Charles’ coronation. The palace insider believes that the seating and such is posing a problem with the feuding brothers.
Prince William has a worse temper than King Charles
As reported by Mirror, Prince William has less patience than his father, whose temper ‘does not go on and on.’
An insider told royal author, Robert Jobson - who is currently writing the book Our King: Charles III: The Man and Monarch Revealed - that Prince William is ‘a driven person' and this trait ‘can make him inpatient.’
The insider compared Prince William's and King Charles’ anger. When the King gets angry, he’ll get frustrated and ‘flare up’ but then ‘it is forgotten about.’ However, when it comes to the Prince of Wales, ‘it is rarely forgotten.’
It seems that the insider is implying that Prince William is the type of person that will hold a grudge. This could make the coronation difficult.

Prince William will ‘tolerate’ Prince Harry at the coronation
Prince William was one of the main targets in Prince Harry’s memoir and Netflix documentary. Indeed the Duke of Sussex claimed that his brother got physical with him during an argument.
As such, sources believe that Prince William will only ‘tolerate’ his brother during the coronation celebrations. It is also reported that Prince William denied Prince Harry a face-to-face before accepting the coronation invite. The Duke of Sussex decided to accept the invitation to the coronation, but his wife, Meghan is staying in California.
Experts have predicted that ‘warm interactions’ between the brother won’t happen. Kinsey Schofield, the host of the To Di For Daily podcast, told Fox News:
We know that palace staff is planning every entry, exit, and seat with the battling brothers in mind. The palace's ultimate objective is to avoid conflict
Schofield added:
William, without a doubt, was the most hurt by Harry's actions. The two have not spoken since the queen's funeral. And certainly not since the Netflix series or book. And despite Harry telling media outlets that he would only attend the coronation if his family received an apology... my sources say that no such apology has happened in private.
