Prince Harry is expected to miss his uncle’s Lord Robert Fellowes’ funeral, amid ongoing tensions within the Royal Family.
While speaking with The Daily Beast, the Duke of Sussex's former friend, who lost touch with Harry when he left for the US said, the Duke will not attend his uncle’s funeral.
He said, “The death will be a huge blow to the Spencer family. In normal times it would be unimaginable that Harry would not be there to support Jane. Of course he would want to be there.”
The friend added, “It will be a huge gathering of the Spencer clan. But these are not normal times and it may well be that everyone feels Harry’s attendance would just create too much drama. It will be very sad for him if he can’t make it.”
At the age of 82, Harry and William's uncle, who was married to Lady Jane Spencer, the late Princess Diana's sister, passed away from unspecified circumstances.
In addition, he worked as the late Queen's personal assistant during nine of the most turbulent years of her reign (1990–1999), which included the deaths of the late Princess of Wales and the divorces of three of her children.
