The Royal Palace is once again shaken by shocking news: King Charles III is eager to reconcile with Prince Harry, but Princess Catherine firmly says “no” to any public reunion.
After years of frozen relations between Harry–Meghan and the rest of the Royal Family—from the explosive Oprah interview to the Netflix documentary series and the tell-all memoir Spare—all hopes of reunion seemed to have vanished. Yet recently, a faint glimmer emerged: senior aides of the King and Harry secretly met in London, viewed as the very first stepping stone toward a potential reconciliation.
However, this plan quickly faced a major obstacle. According to Closer magazine, Princess Kate still bears deep wounds from the public accusations made by the Sussexes. A source revealed: “For Kate, it’s done and dusted—there’s no mending it.” While willing to sit in the same room as Meghan on unavoidable occasions like a state funeral, Kate completely rejects any “staged reconciliation” in front of the public.
Notably, Kate is even unwilling to stand next to Harry if he participates in a project related to Princess Diana—the mother-in-law she deeply respects. To her, that would be forced and would betray the dignity she associates with Diana’s legacy.
Meanwhile, King Charles still holds hope. He wants a private meeting, with no third parties—just father and son speaking openly. And on this point, he and Kate actually agree: Meghan should not be involved. “This is about father and son, not the Sussex brand,” one insider stressed.
Will the King’s wish for reconciliation be strong enough to overcome Kate’s emotional barrier? Or will this fracture become a permanent scar in royal history? The answer remains uncertain, but one thing is clear: the inner workings of the Windsor family have never been more complex—or more tense.
