Despite Prince Harry‘s short visit with King Charles III in England, royal biographer Tom Bower doesn’t think a reconciliation is in the works. “Harry clearly met his father with the hope that he could ingratiate himself back into the family, but it isn’t going to work. There is just no way back for him,” he told Daily Express.

As King Charles III continues to battle cancer, Prince Harry might feel remorse over their rift. “Harry himself said he didn’t know how long his father has got and I think that hangs over him, but I don’t think he’s that high up on Charles’ list of priorities,” Tom Bower said.

Between Meghan Markle‘s ongoing feud with her relatives and Prince Harry‘s estrangement from the royals, the couple could face a lonely holiday season. “Meghan isn’t reconciled with her own family, and she never wants to come back to Britain, so her relationships with both families act against Harry’s own instinctive interests. The result is they are left in a very isolated place at Christmas,” Tom Bower said.

To make matters worse, following Prince Harry and King Charles III’s reunion, the Duke of Sussex accused his father’s staff of leaking information to the press about the meeting. “He was granted those 54 minutes with the King by the skin of his teeth but was told that not a word must be spoken about it,” Tom Bower claimed. “Then he gets on the train to Ukraine and tells a reporter that he has no regrets for anything he said in [his 2023 memoir] Spare.”

According to commentator Kinsey Schofield, the royals don’t want anything to do with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle if they keep using The Firm for financial gain. “As long as she uses her title for business, the royal family will keep their distance,” she told Fox News Digital. “And as long as the family keeps that distance, Harry’s popularity will continue to suffer.”
