The relationship between the Sussexes and William and Middleton has been strained for years, even before their step back from the royal family at the beginning of 2020.
Prince Harry has spoken publicly about his rift with Prince William, saying he and his brother were "on different paths" in the fall of 2019.
It appears the couple's interview with Oprah did not help matters. Harry told Gayle King that he had conversations with William and Prince Charles that were "not productive" following the interview.
However, things seemed to change when Harry was unexpectedly reunited with his family for Prince Philip's funeral. Markle was unable to attend the funeral because her doctor did not give her clearance to travel while pregnant.
Although he did not process into the event next to his brother, Harry was seen chatting with William and Middleton after their grandfather's service, indicating a potential easing of the tension in their relationship.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge celebrated their wedding anniversary on Thursday with portraits taken at Kensington Palace earlier this week.
William and Middleton, who met while attending the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, were married in Westminster Abbey in 2011. They now have three children together.
Harry and Markle are set to come face-to-face with William and Middleton again over the summer for a statue dedication for Princess Diana in July.
