The siblings are thought to be forming separate courts before the birth of Harry’s child with Meghan Markle, The Sunday Times says.The paper adds it understands courtiers hope the formal move could ‘ease tensions’ between the two young royal couples.

William and Harry have shared the household for 10 years but now have differing royal responsibilities.
A source who reportedly knows the brothers told the paper: “William and Harry’s double act has naturally been supplanted by the two couples and their families.”
There have been multiple reports of differences between the pairings of William and Kate and Harry and Meghan in recent months.
The Dukes reportedly had a falling out after Harry announced his engagement to Meghan last year.According to one of their mutual friends, Harry didn’t believe his big brother was making enough effort to welcome his new fiance into the family.
The pal said last November: “Harry felt William wasn’t rolling out the red carpet for Meghan and told him so”, reports indicate .”They had a bit of a fall out which was only resolved when Charles stepped in and asked William to make an effort.”
Rumours were further fueled by the news Meghan and Harry would no longer be moving into an apartment next door to Kate and William.
They are instead moving into Frogmore Cottage in Windsor instead, after a refurbishment.
The couple’s baby is reportedly due in March or April.
