Prince William cut all contact with Prince Harry over his Netflix documentary and has no plans to speak with him again, royal correspondent says

• Prince William cut contact with Prince Harry over his Netflix series, The Sunday Times reported.
• The once-close brothers have been at odds for years, with details made increasingly public.

Prince William cut contact with his brother, Prince Harry, over the allegations Harry made in his recent Netflix documentary, according to one of Britain's most noted royal correspondents.

"William cuts all contact," Roya Nikkhah of The Sunday Times said in a tweet accompanying a feature on the fallout of "Harry & Meghan," released over the past week on Netflix.

Nikkhah cited two unnamed friends of the Prince of Wales despairing at the damage the series, in which Harry accused William of screaming at him over his plan to leave royal life in 2020, did.

He also accused William of colluding with the media to plant damaging stories about him and Meghan to distract from other problems in the family.

One source noted that their relationship had been "very strained for a while" and asserted that William had no plans to speak to him in the future. A second simply said "the whole thing is mad."

Kensington Palace, which represents William, declined to comment in response to a question from Insider. Spokespeople for Harry and Meghan did not immediately respond.

Speaking in the documentary, Harry said that his brother's staff traded stories with the press about him and Meghan.

He said he refused to participate. "I would far rather get destroyed in the press than play along with this game or this business of trading," he said.

"And to see my brother's office copy the very same thing that we promised the two of us would never ever do, that was heartbreaking."

In the series, Harry mourned his damaged relationship with his brother, which the public used to regard as unshakeable.

The "saddest part of it was this wedge created between myself and my brother so that he's now on the institution's side. And part of that, I get. I understand, right? That's his inheritance," he said.
