Ben Fordham has warned the Royal Family feuds could escalate following the Queen’s death at Balmoral Castle last week, aged 96, ending her 70-year reign.
His comments come after Prince William and Prince Harry put bitter tensions aside to make a rare public appearance alongside wives Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle at Windsor Castle on Saturday.
While Fordham praised princes for putting on a united front, he expressed bitter disappointment it came too little too late for their late grandmother, who had hoped to see the brothers reconcile.
He warned royal fans to buckle in for more even more drama with the Queen no longer around.
Fordham says the princes have no choice but to repair their fractured relationship, but fear things could get worse before they get better.

‘If you think you’ve seen some dramas in the past few years – get ready,’ Fordham said.
‘With the Queen no longer around, the war between William and Harry is sadly going to get worse, unless this tragedy serves as a wake-up call.’
It was the first time in over a year the brothers had reunited since unveiling a statue of their late mother Princess Diana in July last year.
Fordham said it was a great shame that it took their grandmother’s death for the ‘stubborn’ princes to put their differences aside and blasted them for not doing it sooner.
The Queen had desperately hoped the pair would reunite after her husband the Duke of Edinburgh died almost 18 months ago.
‘Why not before, it was too late boys, way too late,’ Fordham fumed.
‘You’ve spent years fighting. You both had a responsibility to your grandmother to end it and you didn’t.
‘You failed to treat one of the great heartaches felt by your grandmother. She wanted the two of you to find your peace and you didn’t.’
‘It was only after she died that the two of you got together.’

Fordham added their father King Charles III had let them down for failing to intervene by ordering his sons to settle their feud for their grandmother’s sake.
‘Charles was too soft to act and the boys were too stubborn,’ he said.
‘So as great as it was to see William and Harry together, the person who wanted to see it the most didn’t.’
Fordham believes the princes may not reconcile while Harry remains married to Meghan as he slammed her involvement in her husband’s estrangement from the royal family in recent years.
‘I don’t mean to single out one individual but let’s face it, Meghan has made it her mission to undermine the monarchy and seek revenge on members of the royal family,’ he continued.
‘And Harry isn’t an innocent bystander because he’s at times led the attack and coordinated the campaign.
‘Harry has fallen out with his family, Meghan is estranged from hers. There seems to be a running them, maybe they deserve each other.’

While he understand Harry’s decision to leave royal life, Fordham says the prince has some serious thinking to do.
He pleaded with both William and Harry to agree to disagree and says they don’t have a choice but to repair their fractured relationship.
‘Without the Queen, the royal family loses its solid foundations and further cracks will only do more damage,’ Fordham concluded.
‘The young royals are the future of The Firm so a lot of it rests on the shoulders of William and Harry. They need to rebuild and repair and reset the relationship.
‘They need to focus on what reunites them, not what divides them. And for that, all they need to do is look at their grandmother.’
‘I’m deeply disappointed the rest of the world got to see the two of them seemingly patch up their relationship and the person who really counts missed out because she passed away late last week.’
