in life.<\/p>\n<p>This deepened in January 2020, when Harry and Meghan formally stepped down as working members of the Royal Family and moved to California, where they remain.<\/p>\n<p>Though Prince Harry has since returned to the UK on a number of occasions &#8211; such as after the deaths of Prince Philip and the late Queen &#8211; the rift hasn&#8217;t been sealed.<\/p>\n<p>The group &#8211; once dubbed the &#8216;Fab Four&#8217; &#8211; were even photographed together at a funeral service for the late Queen in Windsor.<\/p>\n<p>However, it is likely a number of claims made in a documentary series released by Meghan and Harry &#8211; and in the prince&#8217;s book, Spare &#8211; have heightened tensions.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ms Bond said that, like his father, &#8216;William can be quite hot headed, but Catherine is adept at calming him down&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>She added that she&#8217;s sure William and Kate are &#8216;a great support to one another and that Catherine is the most incredible source of encouragement for William&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Their marriage is founded on &#8216;enduring friendship&#8217;, the royal expert said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/10\/75804251-12557209-image-a-3_1695634298307.jpg\" height=\"799\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Jennie Bond, the former BBC royal correspondent, added it was clear that Kate Middleton &#8216;has been hurt and insulted by things that Harry and Meghan have said&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/10\/75804249-12557209-image-a-4_1695634302707.jpg\" height=\"951\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>She described how Prince William and his wife had attempted to heal the rift in the Royal Family at Prince Philip &#8216;s funeral in April 2021, but after a &#8216;blazing row&#8217;
