Prince Harry Denies Claims of Trying to Upstage Prince William

The Duke of Sussex's spokesperson dismissed any notion that Prince Harry was attempting to overshadow his older brother, Prince William, by revealing his own visit to Canada shortly after William arrived in Brazil for his Earthshot Prize tour.

One royal expert described this perceived clash as "predictable," but Harry’s team clarified that the timing of his announcement was not motivated by sibling rivalry.

"He is not afforded the same level of security and protection as other working members of the Royal Family. It means therefore, that the period of time in which we can release details of events is much more truncated than it is for His Majesty the King or the Prince of Wales."

Prince William arrived in Rio de Janeiro on Monday to celebrate the fifth anniversary of the Earthshot Prize, an environmental award. While he started his first engagement at Sugarloaf Mountain, Harry’s office in California confirmed his upcoming trip to Canada this week, ahead of Remembrance Sunday.

Summary: Prince Harry's team denies any rivalry, explaining the timing of his announcement is driven by different security protocols compared to other Royals.
