Prince William is reportedly "wary" about Harry's presence at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee amid concerns he will leak details of private conversations.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been told that a Netflix film crew following them will be stopped by royal enforcers if they attempt to film the celebrations.
But the Duke of Cambridge is reported to be fearful that the contents of any heart-to-heart talk with his younger brother at the special occasion could end up being made public on Harry and Meghan's show on the streaming service.
William and Kate are said to be worried that the couple, who sensationally quit royal duties for a new life in the US, could pull a "stunt" that will take the spotlight away from the Queen as she celebrates 70 years on the throne.
The strained relationship between the two siblings was understood to have been damaged by the Sussex's bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in which they claimed an unnamed member of the Royal Family made racist comments and said Kate brought Meghan to tears.
William and Harry have not met since they unveiled a statue of their mum Diana, Princess of Wales, in July last year.
A source told the Sun : “William wants to talk to Harry to try to heal the rift between them but he’s fearful it will find its way on to Netflix, Oprah or into Harry’s upcoming book.”
Harry and Meghan have said they will attend the Jubilee festivities with their children Archie, three, and Lilibet, 11 months.
The couple are welcome to attend some events but have been denied access to accompany the Queen on the balcony of Buckingham Palace for Trooping of the Colour.
Royal biographer Tom Bower added to the Sun: “William will worry that Harry and Meghan will pull a stunt to try to get the limelight.
“Kate and William would be foolish not to be suspicious and would be unwise not to be cautious.”
The Queen has decided only “working royals” will join her on the balcony at Buckingham Palace for the Trooping the Colour on June 2, removing Harry, 37, and Meghan, 40, from the iconic images that will be seen for generations to come.
The decision also thrust Harry’s relationship with his father Prince Charles, 73, and brother Prince William, 39, into the spotlight.
It comes amid reports that palace “minders” would stop any attempts by Harry and Meghan’s Netflix crew to film inside royal events celebrating the jubilee.
A team has been tasked to stop any moves by filmmakers to “exploit” the streaming giant’s £112million deal with the couple at the four-day celebrations.
During the interview with Oprah Winfrey in March last year, Harry said he felt let down by his family and that he was barely speaking to his brother, describing their relationship as “space”.
He claimed his father Charles stopped taking his calls after he and Meghan relocated to the US, where they now live with son Archie, three, and their 11-month-old daughter Lilibet.
Harry also said he and William were now “on different paths”.
