As with every move the royals make, the interactions between the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were closely scrutinized. One gesture Harry did for Meghan had fans swooning, while others raised their eyebrows sky-high at the apparent lack of courtesy shown by the future king of England. As seen in this tweeted clip, after the royals waved goodbye to the crowd, Prince Harry guided Meghan Markle to the left passenger door of the waiting black Audi and opened the door for her. Prince William, on the other hand, walked directly to the driver’s side, leaving Princess Catherine to walk by herself to the front passenger door, which a bodyguard opened.
Twitter users had plenty to say about the short interaction. One commenter said, “Love how Harry is there always for Meghan and just making sure she is ok!” Others focused on William’s apparent lack of courtesy. Sighed one, “William can’t even open the door for his wife? Goodness me.” Others posted similar news photos showing William seemingly disrespecting Kate through his body language. Another predicted, “If it was Harry who didn’t open the door for [Meghan], it would have made headlines already.” At least one user took a more charitable stance: “The guy just lost his granny. It’s just a car door & it looks like they all learned it was time to go. Can’t we cut him some slack?”

The other big news surrounds the joint appearance of the Waleses and Sussexes at Windsor Palace, as they traveled together for a walk around the grounds and greeted their appreciative public. Time will only tell whether this bittersweet reunion is the real deal between the estranged brothers, or whether it was simply a diplomatic gesture for the sake of their grandmother’s blessed memory. Whatever the reason, people are talking as much about the relationship between the princes and their wives as they are about the brothers alone.

Both relationships have been under the microscope since the queen’s passing

“The four line up together to suggest some form of unity and it is William, with his puffed chest and air of confidence, who looks like the leader and instigator. Harry performs some clothing touch anxiety rituals but Meghan seems to be on hand to offer comfort, support, and encouragement,” James assessed. “Kate looks slightly distanced although she is close to William when the couples split slightly.”
Harry and Meghan will remain in the U.K. until Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral — time will tell if we see the two couples together again.
