One of the biggest royal controversies that has been feeding the media frenzies is the long-standing feud between Prince Harry and Prince William. What started off as arguments regarding the institution gradually began to widen further between the two royals. As the future King, Prince William decided to pledge his service to the British Monarchy. On the other hand, King Charles’ youngest, who always felt like “a shadow, a Plan B,’‘ called it quits with the palace. As stated by the Duke himself, the physical altercation before the infamous Megxit was the final nail in the coffin. However, that was not it. 

As the row between the royals continues to pierce through with no signs of reconciliation, the National Portrait Gallery has decided to take things into its own hands. As confirmed by Express, the gallery has decided to bring down one of the most incredible throwbacks to the glorious past of the brothers. The portrait was reportedly commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery, as early as 2008. 

Nicky Philipps painted the portrait on display in London a decade ago before it underwent its recent €35 million three-year refurbishment. The latest developments confirm that the curators of the gallery took the decision to remove it from the display. And definitely not the royal family. “With over 250,000 portraits in our collection, we are only able to display a small percentage within our building,” said a spokesperson to the outlet.

And certainly, the portrait of the royals is not one of them. 

Insight into the adorable portrait of Prince Harry and Prince William 

The juvenile princes in their 20s flaunt in their the royal uniform of the Blue and Royal Cavalry Regiment. Seated in a relaxed gesture, the Duke of Sussex looks casually at his brother. On the other hand, the Prince of Wales smiles back with the same warmth and affection as his younger brother. The two sat before the artist Philipps, at her private home in South Kensington. 

Although the Kingdom preserves it with the utmost care, it has lost all reason to take pride in showcasing the same. The brawl between the brothers has continued to worsen over time. There were seemingly no positive responses from the Palace, although the Duke publicly confessed that he would love to have his family back.
