Prince William has taken a "leaf out of Harry's book" following the Prince of Wales candid admission about modernising the Royal Family, according to a royal commentator.
After the Prince of Wales announced his plan to modernise the Royal Family, royal commentator Katie Nicholl believes Prince Harry would be "probably sitting there thinking this is what I've been saying all along."
She added: "Let's be more open, let's show more empathy, let's do things a little bit differently.
"One of the reasons Harry felt he needed to leave was because he didn't feel he could bend the institution the way he wanted to do things."
The brothers' feud has been ongoing for several years

She continued to tell The Sun: "I think we have seen the royals take a leaf out of his book."
Prince Harry and Prince William are not thought to be on speaking terms after the Duke of Sussex stepped back from royal duties and moved to California in January 2020.
Nicholl added: "It's one thing opening up, it's one thing seeing the King give a big hug to someone rather than just shake their hand."
The Prince of Wales discussed his new differing approach to being a member of the monarchy and undertaking royal duties compared to older generations of the Firm.

GettyWilliam said: "I'm trying to do it for my generation. And to give you more of an understanding around it, I'm doing it with maybe a smaller R in the royal if you like."
Nicholl added: "I think it's modernising at some pace, but I think it's only now had the opportunity to do that because the late Queen's reign was so lengthy, it didn't have the opportunity to modernise the way it is now.
"It can't jump too quickly ahead of the curve, it has to keep up. It had to change, that's the point."

Nicholl believes that the Royal Family would have previously kept this secret.
She said: "That's fine, that's relatability, connectability and empathy, but the backbone of what they do isn't going to change.
"That service to others, lifelong commitment to duty, that backbone that props the whole institution up, that's not going to change."
