Prince Harry Meets King Charles for 55-Minute Private Talk in London

The father–son encounter during Harry's charity trip is viewed as a tentative opening toward reconciliation.

Overview

  • The pair met at Clarence House in early September after roughly 18 to 19 months without a face-to-face, according to multiple reports.
  • Harry traveled to the UK for the WellChild Awards and other charity events, later saying at an Invictus reception that his father was "great."
  • Media accounts report Harry showed recent photos and videos of Archie and Lilibet during the meeting, while Meghan and the children remained in California.
  • Some outlets claim Prince William was not informed in advance and reacted with shock, a detail that has not been formally outlined by the palace.
  • Separate reporting indicates Harry wants his children to have the option to serve as working royals, but royal watchers cite plans to slim the roster as a barrier.
