Prince William and Prince Harry released a joint statement Monday after rumours about William “bullying” Harry and Meghan Markle did the rounds online.
The statement read: “Despite clear denials, a false story ran in a U.K. newspaper today speculating about the relationship between The Duke of Sussex and The Duke of Cambridge.
“For brothers who care so deeply about the issues surrounding mental health, the use of inflammatory language in this way is offensive and potentially harmful.”
