How did the quarrel between William and Harold start in 1066?

Legend has it that Harold supported William's claim to the throne as legitamte. However, when King Edward the Confessor died in January 1066, Harold rushed to London and had himself crowned King. As a result, William invaded England and defeated Harold at Hastings. The legend is that Harold promised to support Williams claim to the throne over his own, but when both the Witenagemot and King Edward himself (who was also supposed to have promised the throne to William) selected Harold to succeed Edward, he accepted it. This was a betrayal in William's eyes, and it committed the two kingdoms to War.

Why did the Battle of Hastings start?

Basically;When Edward the Confessor died sadly he left no direct heir, and the throne of England passed to Harold. However, William of Normandy claimed that Edward had promised the crown to him, and claimed that Harold himself had sworn a sacred oath to relinquish his claim in William's favour. William prepared his invasion fleet and, armed with delaration of his right to the throne, he crossed the English Channel to land near Pevensey. Harold, in the meantime, had yet another threat to concern him; his brother Tostig allied with Harald Hardrada of Norway and landed in the north of England. They took York, however, Harold defeated them soundly at the Battle of Stamford Bridge. No sooner had the battle ended than Harold received news of William's invasion in the south. He marched his war worn men from York to Sussex, arriving there on October 13 to face the Normans.
