The brothers have had frosty relations since Harry sensationally moved to the US and stepped back from royal life in 2020.
And their relationship was strained further after Harry and Meghan's bombshell interview with Oprah earlier this year.
But after a solemn reunion at Prince Philip's funeral on the weekend, the door has been opened for further reconciliation, it's been said.
According to Royal biographer Omid Scobie, the Duke of Sussex is expected to be at the statue unveiling for Princess Diana at Kensington Palace.
Writing in , he said: "He will join William at Kensington Palace’s Sunken Garden for a ceremony that was rescheduled from summer 2020."
HEIR'LL BE BACK
The statue of Diana is set to be revealed on July 1 - on what would have been her 60th birthday.
According to reports, planners at the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea have approved the building of the statue - despite having no idea what it would look like.
However, no set plans for Harry's visit have been officially confirmed.
Meanwhile, Harry met the Queen privately "at least twice" and chatted to Charles and William on his "family focused" UK trip.
A pal has claimed the Duke of Sussex met with the monarch a number of times, after he flew in to mourn his grandfather.
The source said: "The love and respect he has for his grandmother will always be unwavering.
“This trip was to honour the life of his grandfather and support his grandmother and relatives.
"It was very much a family-focused period of time. Saturday broke the ice for future conversations but outstanding issues have not been addressed at any great length.
"The family simply put their issues to one side to focus on what mattered.”

Prince Harry also had the first face to face conversations with his dad and brother since officially stepping down as senior royals last year.
