After months of speculation, King Charles and Prince Harry have finally had a face-to-face meeting, sparking curiosity about what the future holds.
The Duke of Sussex met with his father for the first time in 19 months and described him as “great” after their private tea at Clarence House.
Harry’s 55-minute visit to the London residence has raised hopes of a potential thaw in the strained relationship between father and son, especially after Harry claimed that his father was not speaking to him.
The tension, intensified by Harry and his wife, Meghan’s criticisms of the Royal family in their Netflix documentary and Harry’s book, Spare, has resulted in Charles having minimal contact with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Six-year-old Archie has only seen his grandfather a few times, while four-year-old Lilibet met him once, three years ago.
In May, he was unsuccessful in his appeal against the dismissal of his High Court claim against the Home Office regarding the Executive Committee for the Protection of Royalty and Public Figures (Ravec) decision that he should receive a different level of protection while in the UK.
Following the defeat of his Court of Appeal challenge, he expressed to the BBC that he “can’t see a world in which I would be bringing my wife and children back to the UK” as they wouldn’t automatically qualify for police protection.
Harry’s security status shifted in 2020 when he and Meghan decided to step down as working royals and relocate to California for financial and personal freedom.
However, Jennie chimed in: “An invitation to stay at a royal residence would solve it. But would that work? And would Meghan be welcome? Would she want to come? I rather doubt it. She’s happy doing her ‘thing’ in the States.
“Harry’s relationship with Charles has been scarred, deeply scarred, by all of this. But now they have started talking again, it makes you think: was it all really necessary?”.
