EXCLUSIVE: A royal expert reveals how the meeting between King Charles and Prince Harry should happen if it goes ahead.
King Charles and Prince Harry could meet within days as the monarch’s youngest son plans to return to the UK. Harry, 40, is set to step foot in his home country again on September 8 to attend the 2025 Wellchild Awards ceremony.
During his visit to the UK, from his Montecito home in California, Harry is likely to meet his father, King Charles, 76. If they do meet, it will be the first time since February 2024.
However, while many members of the public have expressed their views on the idea of a potential meeting, one royal expert believes that King Charles has only one clear choice when it comes to reuniting with Harry, who quit royal life in 2020.
Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams believes that the only way the rift between the King and Harry can heal is if the meeting takes place privately.
He said: “What makes sense is for Prince Harry and the King to meet privately and build up trust. However, there is no chance of that happening!”
Mr Fitzwilliams also said that if the pair end up not meeting, he does not believe the King will be blamed for this.
He said: “If King Charles does not see Prince Harry on his next visit, the blame is likely to fall on the Sussexes. Meghan has just attacked the Royal Family again in her interview on Bloomberg saying she did not feel authentic when a working member.”
Mr Fitzwilliams continued: “In May, Harry gave an emotional and erratic interview on the BBC when he lost his case on security. The meeting between royal aides did suggest something might happen soon, and someone probably leaked that.
“Netflix would obviously like Harry to be involved in a documentary to commemorate 30 years since Diana’s tragic death. This may be highly controversial, especially with William, probably with Charles.
“So no one will blame him (King Charles) if he keeps his distance. However, they might meet and it might lead to something.”
It has not been officially confirmed by the Palace whether the King and Prince Harry will meet.
