Just In: Prince Harry’s secret message to King Charles gives hope to royal reconciliation …… See More
Prince Harry’s ‘carefully crafted’ statement speaks volumes for his relationship with his father, King Charles, according to royal experts
Prince Harry’s recent visit to the UK has sparked renewed hopes of reconciliation with his father, King Charles.
While the Duke of Sussex did not meet the monarch during his brief stay in May, a carefully worded statement released by Harry’s spokesperson suggests that the door to future meetings remains open, and there may be hope for mending relations within the royal family. Earlier this year, Prince Harry spent three days in the UK, primarily attending the prestigious Invictus Games event at St Paul’s Cathedral.
Despite his proximity to Buckingham Palace, Harry did not reunite with King Charles, who has been undergoing treatment for cancer. Harry’s team said the monarch’s full schedule prevented a meeting. The Duke’s spokesperson commented: “It unfortunately will not be possible due to His Majesty’s full programme. The Duke, of course, understands his father’s diary of commitments and various other priorities and hopes to see him soon.”
This statement, while straightforward, was interpreted by royal commentators as a subtle message to the King. Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, Newsweek’s Chief Royal Correspondent, Jack Royston, highlighted the care with which the statement was crafted. “It was a very delicately worded statement, and Harry isn’t always delicate.”
