King Charles and Prince Harry just pressed pause on the whole healing the rift thing with their latest interactions, or lack thereof.
The King was too busy to spare a few moments for his son Harry, and Harry reportedly declined staying at a royal residence during his brief UK visit to celebrate Invictus Games’ 10th anniversary.
Robert Jobson Calls King Charles’ Latest Snub of Son Prince Harry “Ironic”
For all three days Prince Harry was in the UK, he didn’t get an opportunity to meet the King. Guess who did get an opportunity to meet King Charles? Football legend David Beckham!
But if you asked Jobson, the King cannot be blamed for choosing not to meet Harry during his latest visit.
He said: “But really, who can blame him? Harry and his wife Meghan have made a fistful of dollars carping on about his family’s supposed inadequacies and failings.

British royal family news teases that Prince Harry will be in London on May 8 for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.
The rumor mill can’t help but wonder if Harry will bother to meet with his family, but there is another hidden sticking point that may come up.
Apparently, Prince William has some jealousy that the spare can “pursue his passions and explore different avenues that don’t involve the monarchy.”
Royal Family News – Is William Jealous of Harry?
A source told Us Weekly that “William is a bit envious of [his brother’s] freedoms” and royal historian Ed Owens believes this to be true. He wrote After Elizabeth: Can the Monarchy Save Itself and claims that “Harry has done remarkable things.”
According to Owen’s world view, Harry “now has international presences … That international limelight really sets Harry’s work apart from other members of the royal family.”

According to an author, it’s not as simple as going public with the unaltered image of the Princess of Wales and her children. Ahead, their explanation for why releasing the original’s complicated.

When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement in 2017, everything seemed fine as the public had no idea there was any trouble brewing behind the scenes. But then years later came numerous reports that there was drama behind closed doors.
Meghan and her future sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton), clashed during a bridesmaid dress fitting. And Harry and Prince William reportedly had bouts over the younger prince’s decision to marry the former Suits star. In Harry’s memoir Spare, he said that there was also some friction with his father, now-King Charles, about paying for Meghan’s wardrobe and other expenses.
Now, a new book is revisiting that topic and how Charles even suggesting that he wasn’t going to pay for Meghan left the Duke of Sussex “infuriated.”

Things appear to be as complicated as ever for Prince Harry, King Charles III, and the ongoing royal family rift. The Duke of Sussex flew to England following his father’s cancer diagnosis announcement and inspired talk of a possible reconciliation. However, the king wasn’t reportedly happy about how events unfolded. Ahead, why, per a royal author, Harry’s visit frustrated the king.
Harry visited his Charles at Clarence House on Feb. 6
On Feb. 6, 2024, less than 24 hours after Buckingham Palace announced King Charles’s cancer diagnosis, Harry headed for London, England.
Cameras spotted the youngest son of King Charles at Heathrow Airport before he traveled by car directly to Clarence House, the king’s longtime London home.
Harry arrived and later left Clarence House after what’s believed to have been a short meeting with King Charles. (Reports put Harry’s time there at less than an hour.)

Prince Harry’s visit to England was a quick one, and the reason reportedly had to do with another British royal. Not King Charles III or even Prince William. Rather the Duke of Sussex’s stepmother, Queen Camilla, reportedly may be why Harry spent limited time with his father.
Camilla may have been the reason for Harry’s short visit with King Charles
“The queen was with the king,” Robert Jobson, a royal author, told The Sun. “Let’s be honest — he [Harry] wasn’t too complimentary about Queen Camilla in his book, Spare. He wasn’t very complimentary about her on Netflix [Harry & Meghan]. They don’t get on.”
In his January 2023 memoir, Harry described Camilla as “dangerous” and a villain.” At one point, he claimed she “sacrificed him” to improve her public image.
Not to mention the lack of “contact” between Harry and King Charles in recent years. “Second, there’s...

Following a procedure for an enlarged prostate in January, Buckingham Palace announced that King Charles III had been diagnosed with “a form of cancer” in a statement that read:
“During the king’s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer. His Majesty has commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties. Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual. The king is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure.”

Prince Harry made his way over to London shortly after King Charles announced his cancer diagnosis. However, the trip turned out to be much quicker than anyone could have anticipated. Harry was in and out of the United Kingdom within about 24 hours, and it later surfaced that Harry and his father only sat down for about 45 minutes — some think it was even less.
Now, one expert says Harry’s quick trip was symbolic of a “clear message” from Prince William considering the two brothers never met up during the visit.

It seems Meghan Markle was “wise” not to join Prince Harry on his visit to see King Charles III amid the monarch’s cancer diagnosis. A royal author says the Duke of Sussex already had to “tread on eggshells” during his return to the U.K. With the addition of his wife, the Duchess of Sussex, the trip would’ve been “even harder.”
Visiting Charles marked a ‘deeply personal moment’ for Harry
It was a quick trip to the U.K. for Harry after Buckingham Palace went public with the king’s cancer diagnosis on Feb. 5, 2024.
In the hours after the palace released a statement saying a “separate issue” had been found during the 75-year-old’s hospitalization for an enlarged prostate, Harry left his and Meghan’s Montecito, California, home and boarded a plane at Lax.

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, it was expected that the royal family would put on a united front with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle despite their rift. But while many were expecting them to be civil, no one expected Prince William and the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) to show up with them at Windsor Castle and do a walkabout. Their appearance was the first time the foursome were seen all together since Meghan and Harry’s primetime TV special with Oprah Winfrey.
In the Sussexes’ explosive interview with the former talk show host, the duke described his relationship with his brother as “space” and the duchess claimed that Kate made her cry during a bridesmaid dress fitting. While the princes acted just fine around each other, Meghan looked as though she was nervous. And Kate also had trouble masking her emotions the entire time.

After stepping down as working royals, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle launched a series of verbal attacks against the duke’s family. One example of that came in the Sussexes’ Netflix documentary titled Harry & Meghan when the prince said “so many people in the family” marry “someone who would fit the mold” rather than following their heart.
Viewers interpreted that as a shot at Prince William who married the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton) in 2011. Now, Will and Kate’s fans are clapping back to dispute Harry’s claim and prove that the Waleses are “soulmates.”

Although Prince Louis’s, well, royalty doesn’t mean common family dynamics haven’t found their way into the Wales household. An expert says the 5-year-old son of Prince William and Kate Middleton may be “getting away with murder.” Why? Simply because his parents are “busy” with his siblings.
Louis likely gets away with a lot because William and Kate are ‘busy’ with George and Charlotte
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, the Prince and Princess of Wales’s youngest child is likely to get away with a lot. The reason is because of “different demands” between Louis and his siblings, Prince George, 10, and Princess Charlotte, 8.
“William and Kate have three children with very different demands,” Bond told Ok! Magazine. “We know poor George has been feeling rather under the cosh lately because school life seems to be all about being tested.”

The rift between Prince Harry and his family hasn’t been resolved yet. And some royal watchers believe that the Duke of Sussex’s relationship with his brother, Prince William, is beyond repair and there is no hope for reconciliation at this point. But what about Harry’s relationship with his father, King Charles III?
Harry was invited to and attended his dad’s coronation back on May 6, however, the two aren’t believed to have seen one another since the prince’s brief visit that day. Now, a royal commentator is claiming that the duke recently got an olive branch from the king that he decided to “snap in half.”

Royal watchers everywhere were surprised when just days after Queen Elizabeth II’s death Prince William, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton), Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle reunited for a walkabout to greet well-wishers outside Windsor Castle.
The couples knew what was expected of them during their staged appearances and despite their rift, they were tasked with putting on brave faces and acting cordial. To many, they appeared to pull that off. But a body language expert actually noticed something others didn’t pick up on as William’s wife couldn’t completely hide her true feelings for Harry’s wife and made a “storming” gesture past the duchess.

It seemed like the world stopped for a moment on Sept. 8, 2022, when news broke that Queen Elizabeth II had died.
The late monarch was on the throne for more than 70 years, giving her a prominent place in history for a reign that spanned generations. Mourners from all over gathered at many royal residences to leave tributes for the queen. Several members of the royal family made their way to Balmoral Castle in Scotland following the matriarch’s death. And although the family was once known for adopting the stiff upper lip policy some were visibly upset, including Prince Edward’s wife Sophie.

Each year members of the royal family head to Scotland during the summer to begin their official holiday at Balmoral Castle. And every year since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from royal duties, many have wondered if they still receive an invite to the Scottish residence.
The pair were invited by Queen Elizabeth II in 2022 shortly before she died, but declined. Now, there are reports that King Charles III has extended an invitation to the couple, but that apparently that isn’t the case as the new monarch is breaking with tradition and won’t be staying at the castle himself.

The prominent role William and Kate Middleton have played in recent royal events has only fueled these speculations. With Charles still in the early years of his reign, here’s a look at the potential shift in royal dynamics.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have certainly gone through trials and tribulations with the royal family since the two first met back in 2016. Harry and Meghan’s relationship reportedly created tension between Harry and his brother, Prince William, but things became worse when the media started to attack Meghan.
The press dug into Meghan’s life, and the royal family often didn’t back her up. As a result, tensions became stronger between Harry and Meghan and the rest of the royals, eventually causing the Sussexes to relocate to California. And now, one expert says the couple’s chances at reconciling with the family are “too far gone.”

Kate Middleton, now Princess Kate, has been a working member of the royal family since she married Prince William back in 2011. The couple recently celebrated a dozen years of marriage, and the princess has certainly seen her share of royal hardships during that time.
In recent years, there has seemed to be no greater tension than that between the royal family and the Sussexes, with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepping down from their royal roles back in 2020. Harry, William, and their wives have struggled to keep it together, and Kate reportedly once opened up about “one of the hardest things” she had to do with Harry and Meghan: the walkabout at Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.

Prince William and Kate Middleton may look, at times — Ok, most of the time — like they’re a perfect couple. Although a royal author says they do, on occasion, shout at each other. However, the Prince and Princess of Wales supposedly keep arguing “under control” with a royal family mantra.

“Someone who worked for Kensington Palace told me they do have rows,” Gilded Youth: An Intimate History of Growing Up in the Royal Family author Tom Quinn told Express. “It’s not a perfect marriage. They have terrific rows.”
“Where some couples have a row and throw heavy vases at each other,” he continued, “William and Kate throw cushions at each other.”
In separate interviews, Quinn also noted they might use certain nicknames for each other during arguments.

There’s been talk over the last few years that with the growing popularity of Prince William‘s wife, the Princess of Wales (formerly known as Kate Middleton), King Charles III feels that he is being overshadowed by his daughter-in-law.
That is something the king is sensitive to as it happened with Princess Diana after they got married. But now the monarch’s biographer is claiming this is different from the situation with Diana because Charles knows the family’s future depends on how he handles Kate outshining him.

We know Queen Elizabeth II wasn’t a fan of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step down as working royals, which is why she released a statement that she did support them only after holding the historic Sandringham Summit and shooting down their half-in, half-out proposal. The late monarch also wasn’t happy when the pair sat down with Oprah Winfrey and made several allegations against the Firm, which is why she released a statement saying that “recollections may vary.”
Now, a source close to the family is claiming that the queen let her feelings about Meghan slip shortly before she died and what she said shocked everyone around her.

When Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, announced their decision to step back from royal duties in 2020, they initially wanted a half-in-half-out deal. However, Queen Elizabeth II would only give them the option of all-in or nothing. The couple chose the latter and were able to retain their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles, but were no longer addressed as His/Her Royal Highness. In 2021, the monarch stripped the Sussexes of their honorary royal patronages and military appointments.
Following the queen’s death, many wondered how King Charles would handle his youngest son who continued airing the family’s dirty laundry in the press. Calls for action from Charles grew louder after Harry went rogue with his tell-all memoir Spare. Two months later, it was revealed Harry and Meghan were being evicted from Frogmore Cottage.

A royal author is claiming to know the reason King Charles stopped taking Prince Harry’s calls.
Our King: Charles III: The Man and the Monarch Revealed author, Robert Jobson, wrote in his new book: “Charles stopped taking the calls, however, after his son had sworn at him and repeatedly asked for funds in their tense calls.
“When the Queen asked him why, Charles told her that he was not a bank,” the British journalist added, according to Page Six.
Jobson suggested that Harry did stay in touch with his grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, and “was regularly trying to contact” her when he and Meghan Markle moved to California after stepping back as senior royals in March 2020.
