King Charles III is reportedly “willing to find a resolution” to his strained relationship with Prince Harry and is considering a state visit to America to meet with him.
Royal author Tom Quinn told The Mirror UK that the King is “considering” a trip to visit his younger son, Meghan Markle, and their children, Archie and Lilibet.
Relationship expert Louella Alderson noted this move as a “significant gesture of his desire to mend their relationship,” despite the monarch’s cancer diagnosis.
“This fact alone means if King Charles is willing to make an effort and put forth the time and energy to visit Harry in America, it could be a significant gesture of his desire to mend their relationship.”
Alderson concluded that Charles might be more willing to “address any issues and work towards finding a resolution” rather than jumping to conclusions.
Notably, the monarch did not meet Prince Harry during his brief UK visit in May due to a “full program.”
Quinn also mentioned, “Charles has had discussions about an official visit to the United States at some time in the future, and there is no doubt if it goes ahead, he would build in time to visit his youngest son and his grandchildren, but there are mountains of planning to be overcome before that becomes even a remote possibility.”
Prince Harry is ‘running out of time’
However, it was earlier noted that Charles is “unable to forgive” Prince Harry because of the duke’s revelations in his memoir, ‘Spare.’
Reflecting this sentiment, another royal expert, Richard Eden, told Daily Mail that the Sussexes are now “irrelevant” to the royal family and are “running out of time” to make amends.
“Time is running out to come back while his father is still King,” he stated.
“If Harry wants to come back at any stage, he needs to do it while his father is still King. I really think that when Prince William is King, I can’t see him letting Harry come back and have a role again,” Eden warned.
