Britain’s newspapers dedicated their front pages to the surprise reunion of estranged princes William and Harry
Britain’s newspapers on Sunday hoped for royal reconciliation as their front pages were dedicated to the surprise reunion of estranged princes William and Harry, along with their wives Kate and Meghan.
Pictures of the quartet putting aside their differences to look at floral tributes to Queen Elizabeth II outside her former Windsor Castle residence were splashed across the covers of many of the nation’s Sunday papers.
“Reunited for granny,” read the Mirror’s headline, while the Telegraph ran with “Reunited in sorrow” and the Sun with “All 4 One”.
Despite the truce, relations still appeared to be frosty, with the Times headline reading “Warring Windsors’ awkward truce to honour the Queen”.
“In death, the Queen appeared to do the impossible by bringing brothers William and Harry back together,” said Sun columnist and royal expert Ingrid Seward.
“When they emerged from the same vehicle for a walkabout in Windsor, accompanied by their wives, a nation held its breath.
“It is quite possible that emotions will be running so high the brothers could become friends again,” she added.
