Princess Kate Middleton <\/b><\/a>has been \u201ctrying to convince\u201d husband Prince William<\/b><\/a> to visit his estranged brother, Prince Harry<\/b><\/a>, and his family when they travel to England later this month, a source tells Us Weekly.<\/i><\/p>\n According to<\/span> the source, right now there is \u201cno expectation\u201d that William attends the visit, but that could change.<\/p>\n \u201cAt this time, William is not planning to be there, but things could change. Kate has been trying to convince William to meet with Harry, Meghan and the kids,\u201d the insider says of the Princess of Wales, 44, in the latest cover story<\/a>. \u201cShe is interested in seeing the kids, as well.\u00a0These opportunities to see Archie and Lilibet haven\u2019t happened before, so when they found out they were coming, it was a shock. They are trying to make this work because the opportunities are so limited.\u201d<\/p>\n The source adds, \u201cShe is hoping that William will show up, but she will respect his decision.\u201d<\/p>\n Harry, 41, and wife Meghan Markle <\/b><\/a>are set to travel across the pond in July for the one-year countdown to the Invictus Games in 2027. News broke in late June that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, 44, planned to bring kids <\/span><\/a>Prince Archie, 7, and Princess Lilibet, 5, for the occasion.<\/p>\n Harry and Meghan had stepped back from their duties as senior working royals in 2020, subsequently moving to California with their kids. The couple\u2019s decision soon sparked a rift with Harry\u2019s father, King Charles III<\/b>, and brother William, 44.<\/p>\n The source further claims that William would only meet with Harry \u201cwhen he\u2019s ready.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThis is not on William\u2019s timeline, it\u2019s on Harry\u2019s,\u201d the source alleges. \u201cThey also weren\u2019t expecting Harry to come to the U.K. with Meghan and the kids, so he\u2019s been hesitant. If he is not ready yet, a reunion won\u2019t happen.\u201d<\/p>\n The insider also tells Us <\/i>that Charles, 77, has been hopeful to schedule a meeting with Harry and Meghan on their upcoming trip.<\/p>\n \u201cThe king is realistic about the challenges of rebuilding the relationship and knows it is going to take time,\u201d the source adds. \u201c[Queen] Camilla <\/b>has been very supportive of the efforts to improve the relationship. There is definitely excitement, and Charles is also optimistic about this. He\u2019s hoping it\u2019s the first step toward repairing the relationship between Harry and William, as well.\u201d<\/p>\n The insider adds, \u201cThese opportunities to see Archie and Lilibet haven\u2019t happened before, so when they found out they were coming, it was a shock. They are trying to make this work because the opportunities are so limited.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-narrow.jpg\")
