Prince Harry reportedly wants King Charles to join him on stage at the 2027 Invictus Games in Birmingham — a move that could finally help the two of them put years of feud behind them. The plan comes as Harry continues his hands‑on work with the games. Simultaneously, he is reportedly looking forward to a moment that could bring his family back together in a heartfelt way in the public eye.
Prince Harry to ask King Charles to ‘open Invictus Games’ in 2027, per source
Sources told The Sun that Prince Harry “desperately wants” King Charles at the Invictus Games, “and he wants him to open the games alongside him,” with an insider claiming that this would be a “dream” for Harry, especially with the event returning to the UK for the first time since 2014. Organizers have already begun reaching out to officials ahead of the Birmingham event. Besides, those involved in the event believe that Charles showing up for the opening ceremony is actually possible.
The relationship between father and son has been rocky for years, especially after Harry stepped back from royal duties and released his memoir “Spare.” Moreover, they have only met twice in recent years. Even so, a source claimed that both Harry and Charles “appear to want a reconciliation,” and the games may be the moment they need.
Timing will also be key, since the 2027 Invictus Games will overlap with Queen Camilla’s 80th birthday. Planning committees are hopeful Charles can attend while balancing his commitments, with the insider claiming Harry “is across every detail” and feels encouraged about the chance of standing beside his father at the ceremony.
While neither Buckingham Palace nor Harry’s team commented, organizers said they “would very much welcome” members of the Royal Family at the event. So, if the plan moves forward, the 2027 Invictus Games could mark a turning point for Prince Harry and King Charles, who have spent years engaged in a public feud.
