It is no secret that Prince Harry has not seen his father, King Charles, in a very long time. The exiled prince has been in conflict with the royal family for comments he made about them in interviews and in his book, Spare.
In recent months, however, whispers regarding a possible royal comeback for Harry have been on the table, making for intriguing reading indeed. However, as 2024 draws to a close, it appears that circumstances have shifted.
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Prince Harry’s decision not to include any new information in a recently released paperback version of Spare may indicate that he is now in control. Furthermore, the possibility of suing the UK government may result in an awkward’ reunion with his father.
King Charles won’t answer when Prince Harry calls.
Charles doesn’t want to answer the phone when his son calls. Moreover, there are even harsher rumors about how little he wants to speak with his son.
Speaking with the Mirror, royal commentator Emily Andrews claimed King Charles reacts harshly whenever an aide approaches him with a phone to inform him that Harry is on the line.
“Now, even his own father is not taking his calls. She told the Mirror that when courtiers bring the phone to Charles, who doesn’t have his own mobile phone, he waves them away in irritation.
“Harry is frightened.”
Meanwhile, a royal expert suggested that Harry could even sue the UK government, which could lead to a tricky reunion between him and his father. But we’ll get to that in a bit.
According to a royal insider speaking to People Magazine, whether Harry and his family get security when visiting the UK will play a vital role in the Duke’s relationship with his father.
“Harry is frightened and feels the only person who can do anything about it is his father,” the source told People.
A royal expert claims that Prince Harry has placed King Charles in “legal jeopardy.”
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, Harry is now in the front seat regarding who is responsible for the bad relationship with the royal family.
“I wish the New Year could heal the rift between Harry and his UK family. But it’s difficult to see how that’s going to happen, particularly while Harry insists on pursuing his court case against the Home Office about security,” Bond told OK!.
This situation places the King in significant legal risk. Harry cannot engage the King in a legal dispute with his own government. This situation makes any potential meeting extremely awkward.
