The prospect of Prince Harry’s reunion with the royal family and his father, King Charles III, is something the internet is invested in. His recent trip to the United Kingdom this week wasn’t just about charity visits and public appearances. Behind the scenes, it was about trying to rebuild his relationship with the royal family. As such, the Duke of Sussex sat down with the king for the first time in 19 months, and the 54-minute meeting has reportedly cracked a slight chance of reconciliation.
Prince Harry ‘wants to reset his relationship with his family and with the people of the UK,’ royal source claims
An insider from the royal family told the Daily Mail that Prince Harry’s trip showed a change in tone. At the same time, King Charles reportedly wants to focus on reconnecting with his grandchildren, whom he hasn’t met in three years. The source claimed, “It’s become clear that Harry now regrets some of his actions. He wants to reset his relationship with his family and with the people of the UK.”
They added that although it’s difficult for Harry and Meghan Markle to move back to the U.K. permanently, this could mark the start of a more “functioning wider family again.” Moreover, another insider noted, “The King wants to be a grandfather to his grandchildren,” adding, “He was so pleased when they came over for Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee and he was able to spend some time with them.”
While Harry re‑established contact with his father, the distance between him and his older brother, Prince William, was apparent. Despite being only miles apart, the siblings made no effort to meet. Even so, Harry‘s spokesman said the duke “loved” returning to the U.K., reconnecting with charities and old friends, and claimed that he saw the visit as a success. He capped his four‑day tour by supporting The Diana Award before leaving for Ukraine for another commitment.
