A captivating video clip of Prince William and Prince Harry reviewing archival footage from their royal childhood has gone viral, especially following recent revelations about the brothers’ strained relationship.
&nbsp;
In January, Harry released his record-breaking memoir, Spare, after stepping back from royal duties with Meghan Markle in 2020. He cited ongoing tensions with royal family members, household staff, and the challenging British tabloid press as factors behind his decision.
&nbsp;
During a promotional interview with Anderson Cooper for 60 Minutes, Harry shared that a key motivation for writing the book was to dispel the notion that his wife was responsible for the rift between him and William. He emphasized that their bond was never as close as the public had been led to believe.

Following these revelations, royal fans flooded social media with analytical clips showcasing the relationship between the two princes throughout their lives.
&nbsp;
The latest viral sensation shows William and Harry reacting to footage from Harry’s 1984 christening at Windsor Castle, featuring heartwarming moments with their late mother, Princess Diana. This reaction footage comes from the 2016 documentary Elizabeth at 90: A Family Tribute, which celebrated Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s 90th birthday and included interviews with several royal family members alongside home movies.
&nbsp;
Shared on TikTok by user Merlin7328, the video of William and Harry has garnered over 1 million views, along with more than 70,000 likes and 100 comments, sparking further interest in their complicated relationship.

&nbsp;
&#8220;Do you remember your little brother being born,&#8221; Harry asks William in the clip, to which the prince responded: &#8220;No, not really, I must have only been two.&#8221;
Of his younger brother being dressed in the historic royal christening gown first worn by the children of Queen Victoria and passed down through generations of the family, William joked: &#8220;Hard to tell if you&#8217;re a boy or a girl in that sort of dress.&#8221;
The brothers are then shown reacting to a clip of Diana, with Harry complimenting her choice of outfit. &#8220;Mummy looks great in blue,&#8221; he said, before commenting on the antique royal christening gown: &#8220;I&#8217;m still not convinced about the dress that I&#8217;m in!&#8221;
A number of commenters praised the princes while others expressed sorrow at the reported rift that has developed between them in recent years.
&#8220;The boys need to talk,&#8221; posted one TikTok user.

&nbsp;
&#8220;Love that they still call Diana &#8216;mummy,'&#8221; posted another person, with a further comment reading: &#8220;*sigh* look so much has happened but at the end of the day they need to talk to each other. [Their] kids shouldn&#8217;t end up suffer[ing] like they did.&#8221;
&nbsp;
The last time William and Harry were photographed together publicly was in September 2022, during the state funeral commemorations for Queen Elizabeth II.
&nbsp;
In Spare, Harry made a number of damning allegations against William, including giving an account of an alleged physical attack which was said to have taken place in 2019 after William raised concerns about Meghan Markle&#8217;s treatment of Kensington Palace staff.
