Prince William has "no reason" to meet up with Prince Harry on his surprise UK trip as he won't want to "spoil" time with his children, a royal expert has claimed.
Harry has made an unexpected visit to London where he was seen at the High Court to attend a hearing the past two days in his latest legal row.
His surprise return also comes nearly three months after he laid bare his troubled relationship with his father King Charles and brother William in his controversial autobiography Spare.
Among the claims against William in the memoir was that he physically attacked Harry during a confrontation at Nottingham Cottage in Kensington Palace.
A meet-up between the brothers over the coming days is said to be unlikely as William, wife Kate and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are not currently in Windsor because of the youngsters' school Easter holidays.
And according to royal biographer and editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, Ingrid Seward, William will want to enjoy a "rare opportunity" to spend time with his family.
She told the Mirror: "Of all the members of the family William comes in for the worst criticism in Spare.
"There is no reason for him to want to see the brother who trashed him. It is the children's half term and a rare opportunity for them all to be together in their Norfolk home.
"They kept Anmer Hall for just such occasions. The children have their ponies and pets there and they have the freedom to have fun on the King's Norfolk estate.
"It will be their last opportunity to have proper family time before the coronation. They don't need Harry to spoil things yet again."
Harry is also not expected to meet up with his father while in the UK - even though the King was informed of his visit - as the monarch is "busy".
Buckingham Palace said the King was not in Windsor or London and would be leaving for a state visit to Germany on Wednesday morning.
And according to Ingrid, Charles is not an "ordinary father" and Harry is "not as brave as he makes out".
She explained: "Any ordinary father would expect to see their son when he paid a rare visit to the UK from abroad.
"But Charles is not an ordinary father. He is King and as such has appointments every 20 minutes of his day. In between, he has letters to sign, state documents to read and meetings to attend.
"When the state visit to France was cancelled his diary was immediately filled with urgent pending issues. Being King is not a part-time post.
"Neither is being a father, but Charles has little reason to want a confrontation with Harry after his disloyalty to his family in his book Spare. Maybe Harry had no desire to see his father either.
"Charles and Camilla were due to be out of the country when he arrived in the UK. Harry would have never envisaged something as politically sensitive as a state visit being postponed.
"Harry is not quite as brave as he makes out he is. However much noise he might have made about wanting a discussion, being ushered into Clarence House to meet with an irate and disappointed father was almost certainly not on his agenda."
