King Charles understood to have met Prince Harry’s children at Highgrove

King Charles reportedly had a private reunion with his grandchildren, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, at his Highgrove residence in Gloucestershire on Friday. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were also present for the meeting, which is understood to be the first time Charles has seen his grandchildren in four years. This private gathering follows Prince Harry's promotional activities for the Invictus Games in the UK this week. The reunion occurs amidst ongoing public rifts within the royal family, though Harry and his father have reportedly been speaking regularly on the phone in recent months.

King Charles III hosted Prince Harry, Meghan, and their two children, Archie and Lilibet, at Highgrove House for the first time in years. This meeting, confirmed by Buckingham Palace, marks an attempt to mend a rift that began when Harry and Meghan stepped back from royal duties six years ago. Harry, in the UK for charity events, also recently lost a lawsuit against a tabloid publisher. The visit aimed for the children to meet their grandfather, King Charles, and Queen Camilla. Tensions had been evident earlier in the week regarding Harry's accommodation and security arrangements for his family.

King Charles hosted Prince Harry and his family for the first time in years on Friday at Highgrove House, a country estate west of London. This meeting marks an effort to mend a rift that began six years ago when Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, left royal life and moved to America. The gathering included Queen Camilla, Prince Archie, and Princess Lilibet. Prince Harry had arrived in the UK earlier that week for charity events, with speculation surrounding a potential meeting with his father overshadowing his visit.
