Sources say the Duke of Sussex stands to receive a larger portion of the trust than his older brother, given William already benefits financially from his Duchy of Cornwall estates. But the Prince of Wales is described as feeling "disgusted" that Harry will reap such a windfall without performing royal duties.

There is little William can do officially to block the payout. However, it's said he is voicing that Harry is undeserving given his behavior since stepping back, which has included televised interviews criticizing his family and memoir revelations like alleging he was left with stitches after a physical fight with William.
The inheritance is perceived as an endorsement of Harry’s actions at a time when relations are severely fractured. William and Kate also "don't trust Harry or Meghan one bit," feeling the money leaves a “bitter taste."

The tensions come amid ongoing controversy over Harry's every move. His comments to Oprah about feeling trapped as a royal and Meghan’s claims of racism and Kate making her cry sent shockwaves.
Some suggest Queen Elizabeth's mother would likely cut Harry off had she known the trouble to come. As the relationship breakdown plays out publicly, King Charles is under pressure to remedy the situation and ensure further damage is contained.

Seizing Harry's inheritance has been proposed as one option to send a forceful message. While legally complex, it would appease those demanding consequences for attacks on the crown and reassure a worried nation that duties to the monarchy will always come before personal agendas and money.
