Broken Brothers | The truth behind William & Harry's rift (2024)

Full documentary on the royal rift between Prince William and Prince Harry. Heavy is the head that wears the crown, but heavier is the burden of being next in line. They are possibly the most famous brothers in the world and long believed to be the bright future of the British monarchy. But in an institution that places the crown above all else, also comes the question of who will step up to the throne and who will step back. The once inseparable brothers now divided, their relationship unfolding in the full glare of the public eye. And the chance of a reunion, growing slimmer each day. In this 7NEWS Digital documentary, we look back at the lives of the brothers Wales, through our news archive library and new reporting from Hugh Whitfeld and Valentine Low.
