Prince Harry appears to have recognized the significance of maintaining
ties with the Royal Family. It seems that he's taking steps to mend his
relationship with his father, as he has come to realize that his own career
might be at risk otherwise. Royal insider Tom Quinn suggests that despite their
past differences, the Sussexes may attempt to reconcile with the Royals.
Quinn speculates, "I suspect that because Harry is beginning to realize he needs the royal family more than the royal family needs him, he may well try again to patch up the relationship as we get towards Christmas Day."
He goes on to say, "I don't think Harry and Meghan will be able to overshadow Kate and William this Christmas, or at least not in the UK. I expect the Royal family will make sure William and Kate and their children are very visible right across the Christmas holidays as it's a special time."
Quinn also believes that Prince Charles is keen to emphasize his positive relationship with at least one of his sons and with his daughter-in-law during this family-focused time.
