Poll: Do you think William will strip Harry & Meghan's titles when he becomes King?

Prince William and Prince Harry's relationship has never been so bad as it is now - and it leaves you wondering just how much further it can sour.

According to insiders, William, 42, has completely cut off contact with Harry and after what he sees as repeated public attacks on the . From the Oprah interview to the explosive docuseries and the tell-all book Spare, Harry hasn't exactly been holding back. In fact, he told the himself that "some members of my family will never forgive me" for what he wrote.
