Harry & Meghan Won't Apologize to Royals
7 Oct
Summary
- Source denies reports of Sussexes planning an apology to Prince William.
- Alleged apology was reportedly over Meghan's past comments on Archie's skin tone.
- Estrangement between Harry and William persists despite family contact.

A source has refuted claims that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle intend to apologize to Prince William and Kate Middleton. Reports circulating in the U.K. had suggested the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were planning to extend an apology, specifically addressing Meghan's previous remarks during a 2021 interview. In that interview, Meghan had shared that there were "concerns and conversations" within the royal family regarding the potential skin tone of their son, Prince Archie, before his birth.
The situation highlights the persistent estrangement between the brothers. While Harry has reportedly made some headway in mending his relationship with his father, King Charles, since returning to the U.K. with his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, there has been no similar improvement with Prince William. This dynamic has been exacerbated by the Sussexes' extended stay in Britain.
Sources close to Harry have labeled the apology reports as "nonsense." Despite the ongoing tensions, which have been evident since the Sussexes stepped back from royal duties in 2020 and have been further amplified by their docuseries and Harry's memoir, 'Spare,' some close to the family have expressed hope for future reconciliation. However, as of 2026-10-07T20:22:49+00:00, the relationship between Harry and William remains unchanged.
