Princess Kate and Prince William are avoiding Prince Harry as they navigate a "deeply pressured and sensitive" time, a royal commentator has claimed.
The Prince and Princess of Wales have not seen the Duke of Sussex in 2024 despite Harry making two trips to the UK this year.
The King's youngest son flew to the UK in February following the news that his father had been diagnosed with cancer.
Harry met with King Charles at Clarence House for 45 minutes in February but the royals did not see each other during the duke's most recent trip to the UK earlier this month.

The Duke of Sussex issued a statement confirming that he would not meet with his father while in the UK due to the monarch's busy schedule.
In March, the Princess of Wales announced that she had undergone preventative chemotherapy after cancer was found in tests conducted after a significant abdominal surgery earlier this year.
Harry's relationships with Prince William and Princess Kate have deteriorated over the last few years.
The Duke of Sussex made multiple public attacks on the Prince and Princess of Wales in his autobiography, Spare, which was released in January 2023.

Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told GB News that Prince William was "appalled" by his brother's autobiography.
Fitzwilliams said: "It may be things are going on that are not known but it was not a surprise given Prince William's intense feelings. He was appalled by the allegations in Spare.
"Given it is a deeply pressured and sensitive time for William, Catherine and their family, I don't think anyone expected Harry would see them.
"They did think he would see King Charles and he didn't, it has been disputed as to why."

They added: "As Sovereign, His Majesty is in a very different position from the Princess of Wales.
"There is no need for her to be seen while she’s recovering."
