Prince William is reportedly "extremely concerned" about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

The 37-year-old royal and his younger sibling are said to have "grown apart" since the Duke and Duchess tied the knot in May 2018 - but Prince William remains determined to support his brother through the tough times in his life.

The insider told Us Weekly: "William is extremely concerned about Harry and Meghan.

"Even though the brothers have grown apart, William still cares about Harry and is hoping that he'll open up to him about his current struggles.

"William wants to be there for Harry and hates seeing him in such a bad place. Despite their differences, blood is thicker than water."

Prince Charles is also said to be similarly worried about his youngest son.

The source explained: "Harry's a very sensitive guy, and Charles is worried, too. This is a time when Harry needs his family the most."

Meanwhile, Prince Harry recently confessed that he and his brother have "good days and bad days".

The 35-year-old royal - who has a five-month-old son called Archie with his wife - played down rumours of a rift between the siblings, insisting they will "always be there" for each other.

This evening, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex attended the annual #WellChildAwards in London. WellChild aims to ensure every child and young person living with serious health needs has the best chance to thrive with the support and medical care needed in the comfort of their own home. The Duke of Sussex became Patron of WellChild in 2007, and last year both The Duke and Duchess attended the awards to honour the children and families that WellChild supports. The Duke, who first came to these awards over a decade ago, shared in his remarks tonight: “Last year when my wife and I attended we knew we were expecting our first child - no one else did at the time, but we did - and I remember squeezing Meghan’s hand so tightly during the awards, both of us thinking what it would be like to be parents one day, and more so, what it would be like to do everything we could to protect and help our child should they be born with immediate challenges or become unwell over time. And now, as parents, being here and speaking to all of you pulls at my heart strings in a way I could have never understood until I had a child of my own.” • To find out more about tonight’s event and how you can support this very special organisation, please visit @WellChild Photos ©️ PA images

He shared: "We are brothers. We will always be brothers. We are certainly on different paths at the moment but I will always be there for him as I know he will always be there for me.

"We don't see each other as much as we used to because we are so busy but I love him dearly. The majority of the stuff is created out of nothing but as brothers, you know, you have good days, you have bad days."

Harry & Meghan: An African Journey will play on TVNZ 1, Monday 28th October at 7pm and will be available at TVNZ OnDemand the same day at 8:35pm.
