Summary
- Earl Spencer remains supportive of both Prince William and Prince Harry.

- Spencer reflects on what his sister, Princess Diana, would want for her sons.
Charles Spencer, the 9th Earl Spencer and uncle to Princes William and Harry, has publicly reaffirmed his support for both nephews amid their strained relationship. He stated he is "on my deceased sister's sons' side, both of them," emphasizing his commitment to each prince independently.
Spencer expressed a clear hope for reconciliation, stating, "I hope one day it's resolved." This sentiment comes as William and Harry's relationship has faced significant challenges since Harry stepped back from royal duties in 2020, leading to public disagreements and the release of Harry's memoir.
Reflecting on his late sister, Princess Diana, Spencer shared his belief that she would have wanted her sons to "be happy together and love each other." He noted Diana's close bond with both William and Harry before her death in 1997.
Spencer continues to play a role in preserving Diana's legacy, particularly at Althorp, the family's ancestral estate. His recent comments underscore his desire to maintain connections with both princes without engaging in their personal disputes, offering a message of enduring family hope.
