Eugene Levy Reveals Whether He Was Allowed to Ask Prince William About Prince Harry on New Show

Eugene Levy got real with Prince William about his life and plan as the next king of England on The Reluctant Traveler — but what about the royal’s dynamic with brother Prince Harry?

Levy, 78, revealed whether he was allowed to ask William, 43, about any topic while filming the Apple TV+ series, telling ITV News there weren’t any rules.

“Were you ever told you couldn’t ask questions, for example, about Harry and Meghan [Markle]? Did you find that was just something you didn’t want to go near?” the reporter asked Levy in an interview that aired on Thursday, October 2.

Levy shared, “I was not told I couldn’t ask anything, but it wasn’t really, you know, up to me, to get into that.”

The actor, who has been hosting the travel series for three seasons, confessed, “I had no interest in asking him about that, because it was, you know, [a] very delicate issue and certainly not up to me to get into it.”

Levy explained, “I think there were other things, you know, I could lead the conversation to that might be interesting for him and interesting for the world to hear, but that was something I wasn’t necessarily interested in getting into.”

William and Harry, 41, have been estranged for years, which reached a fever pitch in 2020 when Harry and his wife, Meghan, 44, stepped back from their senior royal duties. Once the couple relocated from the U.K. to the U.S. that same year, the physical and emotional distance between the two siblings became even more clear.

In January 2023, Harry detailed some of his troubles with William in his tell-all memoir, Spare, including an alleged physical fight that transpired between the brothers over Meghan.

In the book, Harry claimed that William called Meghan “difficult” and “rude” while at his home in 2019, which led to an altercation. Despite their estrangement, Harry told ITV at the time that he would “like to have my brother back” amid their family feud.

While Harry has reunited with his father, King Charles III, over the past few years during visits to England — even though they too have been at odds for years — his relationship with William hasn’t seemed to warm up.

“I think that Harry’s relationship with his brother is a different beast than his relationship with his father,” royal expert Kristen Meinzer exclusively told Us Weekly in August. “But perhaps if Charles warms more to Harry, William will feel compelled to follow his lead.”

A source, however, told Us at the time that “William doesn’t talk about Harry anymore” and he is reportedly “done” with his brother.

During William’s chat with Levy during The Reluctant Traveler, in which the two shared a pint and toured Windsor Castle, William did reference his younger brother. He also briefly talked about family in general.

“I hope we don’t go back to some of the practices in the past that Harry and I had to grow up in,” William told the Schitt’s Creek alum of his plan for running the kingdom after his father. “I will do everything that I can to make sure that we don’t regress in that situation. I think it’s safe to say that change is on my agenda. Change for good.”

Elsewhere in the episode, William confessed, “I think stuff to do with family overwhelms me quite a bit. Worry or stress around [the] family side of things does overwhelm me quite a bit. But, in terms of doing the job and things of that type, I don’t feel too overwhelmed by that. Not now, anyway.”

The Reluctant Traveler is now streaming on Apple TV+.
