Insiders suggest that a potential truce might be on the horizon, with plans for King Charles and Prince Harry to meet next month. The intention is to mend fences and bridge the emotional gap that has lingered between them for some time.
A well-informed source cited by OK! Magazine sheds light on the plans. Following the conclusion of the Invictus Games in Germany, Prince Harry is expected to return to his residence in Montecito, California, via a connecting flight from London. Coincidentally, King Charles is scheduled to return to London from his stay at Balmoral in mid-September, aligning with the end of Harry's trip to the Invictus Games.
"The King has a rescheduled official visit to France on September 20 so has a few days to spare in London to meet with his son. Staff are trying to fine-tune the details as we speak," the insider revealed.
This meeting holds significant weight, as it marks the first time the two will come together since the release of Harry's candid memoir, 'Spare,' earlier this year. The memoir's revelations reportedly had a profound impact on the monarch, particularly the parts concerning his wife, Camilla.
While the King maintains a deep affection for his son, he was deeply hurt by the revelations. "The King loves his son very much but he has been mortally wounded by what he has done. He will always be there for him but draws the line at public slanging matches," the source disclosed.
Should these talks come to fruition, King Charles is anticipated to underscore the importance of keeping private family matters out of the public eye moving forward.
It's worth noting that while Meghan Markle will accompany Prince Harry to the Invictus Games, sources suggest that her presence at the talks is "highly unlikely." The meeting appears to be positioned as a pivotal father-son moment, an opportunity for reconciliation without the added complexities of public scrutiny.
