Prince William 'will not call' brother Harry on milestone 40th birthday as 'brothers don't speak'
There will be no call between Prince William and Harry who is to celebrate his milestone 40th birthday, according to reports.
King Charles, 75, is expected to call his youngest son on Skype on Sunday afternoon UK time so they can speak as soon as the Duke of Sussex wakes up in California.
However, sources told the Sunday Express there will be no call between the brothers and that they no longer speak.
Prince Harry is expected to go a holiday with his 'closest mates' to celebrate his birthday, while Meghan stays at home with their two children. There will also be a party at his £11 million home in Montecito.
A royal insider told the Sunday Express there is “a lot of love” in the family between the monarch and his youngest son but that Prince Harry and William are still at loggerheads.
The source added: “They (King Charles and Harry) tend to use Skype when they communicate because they can see each other and it's all set up by staff so it runs smoothly.”
Harry and William have over the years celebrated milestones together
An insider told the Mirror: “What a difference the years have brought. When Harry turned 30, it looked like nothing could come between him and his brother.
“Together, they were set to become the new face of the royals, injecting a much needed modernisation of The Firm.
“But now, William and Harry don’t even speak. Before, they always celebrated major milestones together but there will be no transatlantic call between to the two on Harry's big day.”
The brothers’ relationship went downhill after Prince Harry published his memoir, Spare, last January, which heavily criticised the Royal family.
He accused William of assaulting him in a row over Harry’s wife Meghan.
Harry also alleged that William and Kate encouraged him to wear his infamous Nazi fancy dress outfit.
