Prince Harry’s Royal Reunion Dreams Shattered as King Charles’ Cold Response Sends Shockwaves!
The King recently met with a former Invictus competitor and he made a remark that experts believe signals a major blow for Harry and his dreams of reuniting with the royals
Prince Harry’s chances of rekindling his relationship with the Royal Family have been dealt a fresh blow after a “telling” recent move from King Charles, according to experts.
Earlier this month, Harry stepped into the spotlight in support of the Invictus Games, which he founded in 2014. He was joined by wife Meghan Markle in Canada at the start of February for the 2025 Games, with the pair making a series of loved-up appearances together as they watched from the stands.
Coincidentally, a short time later, King Charles met with former Army captain and para-sports athlete, David Henson, at Imperial College London’s Centre for Injury Studies. But, while David spoke to the monarch about previously competing in the Invictus Games, the King simply replied: “Fantastic” – seemingly not willing to be drawn into a conversation about his youngest son and his sports event.
Speaking on The Royals with Roya and Kate podcast, royal editors Roya Nikkhah and Kate Mansey addressed Charles’s response, saying: “Now that could have been an opportunity for the King to say ‘Oh yes, they’re marvellous’ or whatever that might be.
“But, he just let that comment go and the conversation continued and the King didn’t pick up on that at all. So, I thought that was really interesting, that that was an opportunity for the King to acknowledge the Invictus Games with somebody, who was front and centre of it when it first started, and has been a kind of pin-up for rehabilitation and getting up and getting on with his life and doing incredible things despite having life-threatening, life-altering injuries…That was quite telling, the King just sort of didn’t acknowledge the (Invictus) games at all.”
It’s been more than a year since Charles last saw Harry, who is now all but estranged from the royal family. Harry flew back to London from California in February 2024 following the King’s cancer diagnosis – however, the pair spent less than an hour together and Harry spent the night in a hotel before jetting back home.
It’s thought that Harry is keen to mend some bridges with his father and brother William – but he will have his work cut out. Royal author Robert Hardman recently told the Daily Beast: “Whatever reconciliation or bridge-building happens, it needs to be a three-way process.
“People keep asking about the king’s feelings, but William also has to be on board, which adds complexity. It’s tricky, and a situation nobody wants. But whatever the way forward is, it has to work for everybody.”
Indeed, insiders have suggested that William has no interest in making amends with his brother as a result of the many explosive accusations Harry has aimed at the family.
And, according to The Sunday Times , the Prince of Wales is ‘unlikely to forgive Harry anytime soon’ because he simply can’t get past the comments Harry made about his wife. “William is unlikely to forgive Harry any time soon for his slights against Kate in Spare, among them the suggestion she was cold towards Meghan. Those close to William say his brother rarely comes up in conversation.”
