Prince William publicly mentions Prince Harry for the first time in recent memory while discussing childhood

Despite their continued tensions, Prince William recalled a pivotal memory he recently shared with his brother, Prince Harry, from their childhood in a new documentary about homelessness.

“My mother took me to The Passage; she took Harry and I both there. I must have been eleven, maybe ten, at the time. I had never been to anything like it before and I was a little worried about what to expect .’ the Prince of Wales said in a preview clip of his new ITV documentary called ‘Prince William: We Can End Homelessness.’

In a photo in the documentary, the two boys are seen dressed casually at the homeless charity, smiling at the camera as Harry sits on his mother, on Princess Diana’s lap.

William said Princess Diana made everyone there feel “relaxed and laughing and joking with everyone” in her usual way when they arrived at the centre.
