Prince William Responds to Fan Who Asked If He'd Forgotten Prince Harry's Birthday

Prince Harry celebrated his 38th birthday on September 15, one week after the passing of his grandmother the Queen. And while Harry spent his birthday in mourning, his brother Prince William told a fan that he didn't forget the special day.

According to The Sun, William spoke to crowds in Sandringham on Thursday and said he hadn't forgotten his brother's birthday, noting “It is his birthday today—you’re absolutely right, it is.” And when asked if he'd "forgotten," he said, “No, I’ve not forgotten.”

Harry and William spent the day apart, but here's to hoping William made some kind of gesture when he got home to Windsor? Either way, a source "close to the royal family" tells Entertainment Tonight that Harry wasn't expected to do anything to "mark the day" other than in private, due to the fact that the royals are in an official period of mourning. Harper's Bazaar also reported that Harry "has no plans, as he continues to focus on the royal mourning period after the loss of his grandmother."
