Contradicting reports Prince William was unhappy with his brother's statement asking for restraint in media coverage of his relationship with Meghan Markle, the royal has now come out in support.
William has now released his own official statement on the matter, joining Prince Harry in breaking with his family's norm of not commenting on the private and romantic lives of the royals.
"The Duke of Cambridge absolutely understands the situation concerning privacy and supports the need for Prince Harry to support those closest to him," the Kensington Palace statement reads.
Gossip websites had claimed William was "dismayed" by his "hot-headed" brother's original statement.
Harry's statement claimed Markle was subjected to "a wave of abuse and harassment" by media.
"Some of this has been very public - the smear on the front page of a national newspaper; the racial undertones of comment pieces; and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments," said Harry.
Harry had been dating Markle since June, when they met at the Invictus Games in Toronto, an event he created.
