Royal author Angela Levin claimed a key difference between the Duke of Sussex and his brother Prince William is the Duke of Cambridge’s close relationship with the Middleton family, who are known to be tight-knit. Ms Levin said Harry has not had the same experience with Meghan Markle, whose parents are divorced.
The royal biographer told The Sun: “Children of broken homes, especially if the parental break up was unpleasant, often don’t know how a good relationship works.
“William learnt through the Middletons how a loving and supportive family works.
“It has been the bedrock of making Kate loving, calm and confident.
“Harry hasn’t had that parental opportunity.
“His background has just been of bitter fighting and incompatibility.
“Both he and Meghan come from very damaged backgrounds and must carry with them some of the negativity.
“It must be hard for them to help each other and lack experience in how stable, strong, understanding relationships work.”
William and Harry’s parents Prince Charles and Princess Diana divorced in 1996.

The royal expert said: “William adored Diana and was drawn to her magnetic charm, but she was relentlessly demanding on him as a young child, describing him as her ‘closest confidant’ and talking about her lovers, when it’s a mother’s duty to care for her son, not the other way round.
“Carole relieved William of such burdens by accepting him for who he was rather than what he was.
“She made him feel secure, comfortable and protected and he didn’t have to worry about what he said or be responsible for her emotions.”
William is due to reunite with Harry for only the second time since Megxit for the unveiling of a statue in honour of their late mother at Kensington Palace on Thursday.
Much attention has been on the brothers who have been at the centre of an ongoing rift.
Kate was widely praised for acting as a peacemaker between the siblings when Harry returned to the UK in April for Prince Philip’s funeral.
